That zig zag race finish was a photo finish ...... Do they get to select shoes for that event ? Looks like cleats , soccer or football shoes needed etc .... Lots of slips on that grass...

Crazy thing is crossfit is only what two, maybe two and a half years old ?

Does the little NASCAR pit crew babe Christmas Abbot compete in the games this year ? Can’t find her in the rosters.....

Grateful for the pings FSE !.

Yeah, for the zigzag race the competitors could choose their own footwear, whereas for the sled pulls they weren't allowed to use cleats.

CrossFit has been around since the mid-90s, and the Games have been going on since 2007. Here is a good rundown.

Don't know about Christmas Abbot, but I just read yesterday that Danica Patrick is a CrossFitter!

Looks like Christmas Abbott is giving a NASCAR tire-changing demo at the Games site:
