Masters of Our CrossFit Universe
One of the great things about the growth of CrossFit is that there are lots of competitions available for athletes of all ages and abilities. We’ve got competitors taking on their peers at the Master’s Competition at CrossFit New England this Saturday. You may know them best from regularly putting up top scores on the board here at CrossFit Fenway for you to chase, but Saturday Ron Marchessault and Kevin Kittredge are going to test their fitness against other 40+ northeast athletes. Terrible He-Man references aside, Kevin and Ron have been training hard to improve their weaknesses, and make their strengths even stronger. If you’re going to be in central Mass this Saturday, head over to CFNE, check out the competition, and support out competitors.
