Watching the CrossFit Games was pretty much phenomenal. One of my favorite parts was the final team event. In a surprising twist the slate was wiped clean for a "winner take all" type of contest. The winning team was CrossFit New England.
I don't know anyone from this gym, nor have I ever been to Massachusetts. But I was quite impressed by this group of people. There were red CFNE shirts everywhere! Lots of fans had flown out to support the team. Their cheers (and CF-NE chants) could be heard throughout the stadium. Not to mention the fact that this video is totally inspiring.
It was obvious that everyone from CFNE was a part of the team. It didn't matter whether they were in the stands or on the stadium floor doing the wods, they all seemed to have a real unity about them. While I know that that unity extends beyond the boundaries of separate crossfit gyms, it was incredible to see a team come together like that. Congrats team CFNE!
