CrossFit athletes embark on PG for “Battle in the North”

Athletes from across BC and Alberta will put their fitness levels to the test this weekend in Prince George.

The Battle in the North CrossFit Challenge is set for Saturday and Sunday at Masich Place Stadium.

Event Organizer, Stephen O’Beirne explained to MyPGNow.com what they are doing to make it better this time around.

“We’ve added some new challenges for the teams and the two person worms. We are just trying to give a chance to showcase what people can do in Prince George.”

O’Beirne added the people who are competing will be put to the ultimate test.

“The challenge will be finding that athlete who is good at everything. You can have somebody who is a great runner or does good cardio but if they are not very strong or if they are not great at gymnastics movement they will run into challenges.”

“When it comes to functional fitness, we are always looking for people who can best adapt to new and unique situations and how to overcome these physical literacy challenges that are put in front of them.”

The event was first held in PG two years ago (2023) where over 25,000 pounds of equipment was used.
