Over the past few weeks, more than a few members have encountered a small group of Southie athletes completing some grueling team WODs and being judged/”motivated” by myself and some of the other coaches. If those watching do not have a clue to what was going on or this is news to those who have not been watching, these are CrossFit Southie’s “Shamrockers” – a group of dedicated, veteran CrossFitters and fulltime first responders from our box participating in the 5th annual First Responders Challenge run by Cynergy CrossFit out of Hanson, MA.
Team members James Colvin (BPD), Chris Cunningham (US Army National Guard), James Melberg (Sheriffs Dept), Kevin Cuomo (USMC), Matt Crane (BFD), and Chris Dunn (BFD – currently on the disabled list) have been competing over the past five weeks against other first responder teams from 14 other CrossFit gyms across the greater Boston area. They have put forth impressive 4th, 2nd, 3rd, 2nd , and 1st place finishes and are sitting in 2nd overall right now. The competition runs until March 3rd where all teams will compete at Reebok CrossFit One in Canton and have a chance to compete for the title.
If you see any of these studs around the gym, please stop and thank them for their service to our community and nation…and to keep up the good work!!
