CrossFit athletes from BC and Alberta are gathered at Prince George’s Masich Place Stadium for Battle in the North.
Day 1 began at 9:00am today (Saturday) with men and women doing various challenges in a 10 minute session, including deadlifts, rope climbing, stationary biking, and more.
Stephen O’Beirne, the emcee of the event says the lead up to the competitions has been great.
“We are blessed with a great group of volunteers, not only through our gym community, but people all throughout Prince George.”
“We put a call out, and we have people from everywhere coming on over, and it’s the equipment crew, the judges crew, it’s all the people behind the scenes that make it work.”
O’Beirne encourages the public to come and spectate the free event, and check out the Fitness Expo vendors on site.
Battle in the North continues until 6:30pm today, and again tomorrow (Sunday) from 8:00am until 1:00pm.
