The 2021 CrossFit Games are underway for the top 40 men and 40 women from around the world. The athletes, who qualified through Semifinals, have gathered in Madison, Wisconsin, to compete for the title Fittest on Earth.
Day 1 at the competition saw individual athletes tackle four events which included a long swim and longer paddle, the return of the Pig flips, sprints, and wall walks.
The women’s field was reduced to 36 athletes and lost some top podium contenders, following the news of Bethany Shadburne and Kari Pearce testing positive for COVID-19 and being medically removed from the competition, Russia’s Svetlana Kubyshkina unable to make it to Madison, and Larissa Cunha failing a drug test and, even though she’s appealing the case, the Brazilian athlete won’t be allowed to compete.
