Showdown Teams have been made!

“What you are in love with, what seizes your imagination, will affect everything. It will decide what gets you out of bed in the mornings, what you do with your evenings, how you spend your weekends, what you read, who you know, what breaks your heart, and what amazes you. Fall in love, stay in love, and it will decide everything.”
-Pedro Arrupe

And our Showdown teams are...
Before I announce the 4 teams that will represent CrossFit 808 at the Hawaii VA Loans Showdown on Sunday, August 26th, I want to thank all the judges and helpers that got us through these last few days. You know who you are - I never have to ask you guys to help out around the box, you guys just do it, and I appreciate it so much.

Moreover, I could not be more proud of the sportsmanship that each and everyone of you demonstrate day in and day out. We will definitely have more in-box Throwdowns after seeing some amazing performances these last 2 days. I for one will not forget Charlie's 225 lbs. Power Snatch as well as his graceful fall on his very last Toes to Bar during the 20-minutes AMRAP! Priceless.

Team 1: Cheyne (captain), Sharnell, Steve Olson, and Nate Silva
Team 2: Shay, Ingrid, Charlie, and Jeff Mata (captain)
Team 3: Kyla (captain), Brandy, Rich, and Mike
Team 4: KP, Maila, Joe (captain), and Seth
