Whoa..   This weekend is BIG for three San Carlos Cross Fit Athletes.  Three of our own will compete in three of the most grueling races around.  We cannot be prouder of this bunch...

Oliver Gutierrez will compete on Ironman Arizona this weekend.  The Ironman triathlon, an extreme challenge for the supremely fit, it consists of a 2.4-mile swim, a 112-mile bike ride and a 26.2-mile run. It's been said that just finishing is a victory! Imagine 2400 souls starting the swim at the same time..  If you want to know how your socks feel in the washer machine, try the IM swim.

Shane Stent will take on the Spartan Race (The Beast),   an obstacle Race from Hell. It was voted Outside Magazine’s Best Obstacle Race in 2012, If you have done any race anywhere in the world: whether a mud run, fun run, Olympic run, bike race, death march or any kind of event claiming to be the "toughest race on the planet" you will be happy to know that this is where it ends..THIS IS THE SPARTAN BEAST, a whole other animal.

David Firkins will compete at the World Toughest Mudder this thing  takes the concept of being a Tough Mudder to a whole new level. This extreme competition puts the world’s most hardcore Mudders through a grueling 24-hour challenge designed to find the toughest man, woman, and 4-person team on the planet. When the mud settles on November 18th, a select few winners will have bested 500,000 other Mudders worldwide for the right to call themselves the World’s Toughest Mudders!
