The Games Continue. . .
Once again, Taylar Stallings amazed the crowd with her performance on Event 5. In spite of having a few no reps on the box jumps, Stallings finished first with a time of 3:17.
"I'm very happy with that time,” she says. “I just want to finish top five right now because I really blew it on (Event 4), so now it's just balls to the wall right now.”
She adds: “I have nothing to lose, and I've still got a lot to prove in CrossFit, so I'm just going to still compete like I'm headed to the Games. That's all I can do. I know I'm not the best out there, but I definitely feel comfortable and confident in my movements. I may not be the fastest out there but I'm going to make them work for it." Stallings finishes the day in eighth place overall.
