Team Name: The Breakfast Club

Team Members: Natalie ‘Baby Nat’ Duronio, Ryan ‘Goose Willis’ Fisher, Justin Vroom

Nutts Cup Rank: 7th

Team Strengths: Baby Nat, who was on CrossFit Vancouver’s regional team this year, is one of the most talented athletes not only at CrossFit Vancouver but in the region. Watch for her to be a force next year. She’s on a new training regime, she’s young (22 years old) with plenty of room to grow, but her athleticism is unmatched. Goose Willis also has regionals experience and is looking intimidatingly strong these days. Combine this with the fact that Justin Vroom was recently voted ‘Sexiest Man at CrossFit Vancouver,’ and this team is sure to be top 7 at the VERY least.

Weaknesses: Goose Willis might forget how to power clean like he did at Regionals this spring. (Love ya Goose).

  2. This was tested, solo. At least you'll have some support from a teammate.

  3. I'm conflicted, I was about to go do 8x400m (90sec rest) then I happened to look at the WOD. Best part about the WOD is if my consistent times suck for the WOD, I can blame carrying 45lbs vs carrying nothing on regular run. Looking on the bright side of things.
