If you know me, you know them.
Philsy. Eddie. Carolle. (and Anna, behind the bench.)
The veterans of the Catalyst Games.
Philsy's done ALL of the Games, and most of the Catalyst events EVER. He was our first Fran record-holder. His kid is practically our mascot.
Ed has been around for every Games, too - competing last year, refereeing in 2009 - he shed the "Sandbag" label and started dominating workouts with guys 10 years younger. Anna was one of our few competitors in 2008 - and competed in 2009 and 2010, too. Sadly, she'll be out with an injury this year...
Carolle is one of our CrossFit Queens. After losing 100lbs on this journey, she's one of the strongest - physically AND mentally - at the Park. She's a cornerstone of the Catalyst community. She's been a judge at CrossFit Regionals....but this time, she's in the mix.
Don't let their smiles fool you. These guys are playing to win.
This was them in 2009, post-Murph:
