Welcome back to WOD you talkin’ about? We took a short break for the Summer and post CrossFit Games, thank you for tuning back in.
As I mention at the beginning of the episode, I hadn’t been quite sure on how much news to share regarding the events of this years Games. There’s a lot of content out there and would recommend listening to the recent episode of Talking Elite Fitness linked below for further information on what The PFAA are doing to help the sport proceed.
Importantly though, we are back, and sharing more athlete stories! Today’s guest is Adrienne Geary, an experienced semi finals athlete who this year attended her first CrossFit Games as part of team CrossFit EXF!
We chatted about her journey into the sport, how she found 2 very different experiences at Torian Pro, recovering from a back injury, competing at this years Games, and her plans for the future.
We are SO pleased to be Adrienne’s very first podcast - and can’t wait for you to hear!

Shelby Neal put on a show last year at the 2023 CrossFit Games, fighting hard through some major cuts to finish 18th in her rookie season. As a previous teen CrossFit Games athlete, she had some experience behind her, but had fought to make it to the Games as an individual.

We also touch on her Quarter Finals experience, training with ‘The Professor’ and legend of the sport, Brent Fikowski, and how it’s helped prepare her physically and mentally for the season.

If you have watched any of the ‘Fittest on Earth’ documentaries, you will definitely have seen this week’s guest in action. As one of the hot contenders of the CrossFit Games from 2016 to 2018, Tennil Reed-Beuerlein had a stellar career in the sport of fitness. I was so excited to sit down with her this week and chat about her numerous experiences, plus how she views training now as a Mum, and whether or not she’d ever go back to competing.
As someone who appreciates every ounce of life, and is out of the competitive realm of CrossFit, Tennil’s insight is super welcomed and I loved hearing all about her journey.

Chase Ingraham is one of the most notable voices within CrossFit, providing commentary and play by play as part of the CrossFit Games broadcasting team, as well as hosting the ‘CrossFit Games Podcast’ and ‘Get with the Programming.’

If you know the name Hannah Black, it may well be due to her winning the max snatch event in the 2023 CrossFit Games semi finals. She well and truly put herself on the map and made her one to watch going into 2024.
After this episode was recorded, it was announced Hannah was going TEAM with Invictus Unconquerable out of CrossFit Invictus - an awesome twist but a fun way to see her hopefully reach the Games later this year.
