Helen Challenge Results
Posted by The Coach on April 16th, 2011
It was an awesome morning down at The Cell today with some of our best vying for over $400 in prize money in the Final of our “Helen” Challenge.
Biljana took out the Most Improved Award and $125 with a massive 4:19 minute improvement from her baseline time! Not only that, she took home an additional $85 as the fastest female of the day! Fantastic effort Biljana!
It was a great battle for fastest male with Rhys, F-J and Jacko crushing Helen. Jacko, after a late start, finally prevailed but Rhys and F-J are closing fast in the fitness stakes on their naval counterpart.
F-J didn’t go home empty-handed, taking out 2nd place of the Most Improved category with a big 1:17 minute improvement. It’s amazing to watch F-J give absolutely everything, including most of his stomach contents, each time he hits up a WOD. It’s unbelievable that he can actually improve on his times as it always seems he’s got nothing left. But improve he does! Once again, Batty took home a prize as one of the big improvers, taking over a minute off his time. Batty continues to improve and would have to be one of the fittest 40 somethings walking around. Even after recent illness and thoughts of pulling the pin on today because of that, he did what most wouldn’t do and turned up to have a crack. That’s what makes the difference between those who achieve their goals and get the results they want and those who don’t. You’re always an inspiration Batty!
Jacko and Batty very kindly gave up their winnings and asked The Cell that they be donated to Princess Margaret Hospital for Children. Thanks lads, over $100 going to a great cause.
A big thank you to all who turned out to watch and cheer on their fellow Cell mates. We all love the support. It was great to see Michelle walk in with a big smile on her face post major knee surgery.
Also a big thank you to all our staff and helpers, Mary-Anne, Carole, Dani, Storm and Adrian. We can’t hold these events without you.
Stay tuned for the next big Cell Challenge, let’s get everyone on board and make it huge!!
