Games History: 2012 Chipper

The CrossFit Games events are designed to winnow athlete pools until the fittest can be found. Over a span of four years, from 2011-2015, Rich Froning demonstrated his dominance in the homestretch of competition, mustering untapped energy stores when others were depleted. In 2012, he made a remarkable final push starting Saturday night during the Chipper. The event was a premiere for the down-and-back-style chipper at the Games and included several unique features, like a fat bar for thrusters and the requirement to complete a burpee between muscle-up reps. Froning handily completed the event in 7:06, while Julie Foucher put up the fastest women's time of 7:43.
