Connie was the first who came to me and said he was keen to participate in the team Comp if we were to get a masters team together. It was pretty hard to find 6 people over 40 who were keen to compete so I decided to put in an intermediate team before the deadline as I had one tee’d up. Then hope that there would be more spots left after the deadline. It turned out great and we got a spot for our masters team as well.
Connie is a great guy who has competed before in both team and individual events. It seemed an easy decision to give him the reins as he will have a very good idea of how to attack different events and the rest of the team will listen to him. Anyone who knows Connie will know he is a very down to earth guy, some would say “he goes with the flow”, but when things get serious he can easily step up to the plate and get things done and that is exactly what you want in a leader of a team. When it comes to competing he is the grinder. He will do really well on the long workouts, when things get tough, Connie just puts his head down and keeps working.
Connie will be leading a great group of experienced CrossFitters who are keen to show that age is just a number.
