Nearly 70,000 athletes entered the CrossFit Games. The affiliate (team) competition was spectacular.

Even with the great ISO available on cameras today, I don’t like shooting over 640.

This photo was snapped just as the run, muscle up, snatch event started. Rich Froning won this heat. This was the “top” heat.
The 2012 CrossFit Games must have had 300 media/media related personnel. I remember hearing that the official CrossFit media team took over 40,000 stills on Friday (day 2). This guy in the photo is a photographer from Peru. These LED signs that many of us squatted in front of, made the 90+ degree stadium even hotter.

22 year old Lucas Parker is the 15th fittest man in the world.
The 2010 CrossFit Games Champion, Kristan Clever looked amazing at this years competition. The competition is getting better and Kristan gets better too.

Angie Pie was in the underground arena entrance at the 2012 CrossFit Games and she stepped into a pool of natural light, in an otherwise dimly lit holding area.
I switched the Canon 5D Mark III from video to photo mode and grabbed a gang load of stills.

Camille is one of the most approachable athletes at the 2012 CrossFit Games. She is aggressive, straight forward, yet playful and warm. Camille’s 6th place finish is impressive. She is 23 years old, and I suspect we will see her place higher next year.
