The MetCon Challenge was held at the Dyanamax Medicine Ball Facility in Buda, TX. After getting in some Med Ball Overhead Throws and Kettlebell Swings participants set out to battle the one mile hill run, only to come back and do it again! In the coaches division Ian Mosher of CrossFit Atlanta put up an intense individual score on the board and came out with 1st place.

Congratulations to the Intermediate winners, Sean Johnson and Lauryn Lax!

The Met Con Challenge is Lisa's 2nd event to win 1st place! "The 3rd Challenge couldn't have been better - the weather was great, the workout was just my style (a little running and endurance!), and I got to take home a Dynamax Med Ball! The Fittest Games Challenge has given me the chance to become a part of the community & make friends other Crossfitters. This event series is great b/c when one event is over, I can assess my performance and begin preparing for the next event - it's not a 'one time deal"
