Emily Abbott 8th Fittest Woman in the World!

If you're anything like us, you have been following along with the CrossFit Games this past week. All we can say is WOW, how exciting they have been. We were especially thrilled to see two of our Team Infinit athletes see great success in the games - Emily Abbott and Jolaine Undershute.

The 2015 CrossFit Games was Emily's second go at the title, her first being in 2014 where she finished 35th amongst a field of 42. This year, Emily came in with experience and it showed - she finished the 2015 Games in 8th place.. That means she is the 8th fittest women in the World! We are so proud of Emily, and we are excited to be fuelling her throughout her CrossFit journey.

At the games, the athletes saw a collection of great events to really test their skills and overall fitness. Emily made these events look easy - finishing top 5 in 3 different events, and snagging a dominant second place finish in Event 2 - Sandbag 2015. Emily is a fighter - I know this first hand after playing one season with her on the Windsor Lancers Women's Basketball team. She never gives up and her engine is incredible, which has been evident in her CrossFit journey - remaining consistent throughout the games, and finding herself in the final heat more times than once.

Once again, a huge congratulations goes out to Emily Abbott on her very successful 2015 CrossFit Games. We see all the potential in her and are so excited to fuel her throughout the rest of her journey.

Stay tuned to our blog for a post about Jolaine and her success at the 2015 CrossFit Games in the Masters 40-44 division!
