Running, jumping, squatting, cheering...and this was just what I was doing while photographing Cast Iron CrossFit's June edition of the Clash of the Fittest this past weekend.
CrossFit competitions have no shortage of triumph and heartache. This particular competition was the largest I've photographed to date. I have to admit, I underestimated how long the day would be.
I took a crazy amount of photos which can be viewed in full, HERE. But before you check that out, below are a few of the highlights:
Sunrise til Sunset. The competition was held at the South Florida Fairgrounds in West Palm Beach. |
So many teams! But the event ran smooth.... |
...thanks to Cast Iron CrossFit, the organizers, the volunteers.... |
...and the athletes. |
Ever feel like you're being watched? |
New show airing this Fall. CSI: CrossFit. |
Double-unders? Hate 'em. But at least it's not more kettle bell swings... |
MATT! Making sure the day was consistently intense. He succeeded. Of course, it was also a lot of fun. |
Flew in from Cleveland to help out his team. |
CrossFit ain't so tuff! |
"Goooo Mom!" |
3...2...1...GO! |
Yum. |
Best use of a Maverick box goes to the guy pictured above. |
TEAMWORK. |
Like a walk in the park. |
Nothing but love. |
Her teammates/friends standing out of frame told me to caption this photo as "The Cuban Spa." |
Finishing strong. Awesome effort by competitor Mariana Garcia-Arriaga, with the entire auditorium cheering her on! |

Congrats to everyone involved!! I'm really enjoying getting to know some of the fittest, and NICEST athletes in South Florida.
