NEWS – Mekenzie Riley and Will Moorad win the Brazil CrossFit Championship

The last day of the Brazil CrossFit Championship saw athletes go “Up and Side Down” in a workout full of muscle ups and handstand walks. The last event – announced on the day – was unusual and very exciting.

“Last Man Standing” had athletes complete the same workout, a 20 Cal Assault Bike and 12m KB OH walking lunge, in seven elimination rounds with the last athlete who finished each round being eliminated.

The last event was beautiful to watch, especially when everyone stepped in to cheer Saxon Panchik on during the last round of Last Man Standing when, exhausted, he stumbled on the floor having realised the event win wasn’t his anymore.

Moorland went into Sunday ranked first and held on to his place all the way to the end of the Brazil CrossFit Championship, he has therefore received an invitation to the Games.
