The Kill Cliff Cascade Classic is this weekend and we're streaming it live. This is really badass event with some really badass athletes who are going to be putting on a rad show. Here are our power rankings for the 2015 Cascade Classic:
Men's Top Three:
Cole Sager
Fan favorite Cole Sager has got some fitness under his belt. The former collegiate football player was 7th at the 2015 CrossFit Games and has made a splash at a few off season copmetitions including The Granite Games.
Nuno Costa
Nuno (seen here with Invictus teammate Heather Hippensteel, who is also competing this weekend) has been to the CrossFit Games with Team Invictus every year since 2008, including their 2014 endeavor which wrapped with Invictus on top of the podium. He's got a lot of competitive experience and he's no slouch when it comes to fitness, so it'll be fun to see the perennial team competitor take on some individuals.
Cody Anderson
Cody Anderson made a name for himself when he took on the speed clean ladder at the 2014 Games and held his own amogst competitors who outweighed him by 30+ pounds. He barely missed out on making the Games in 2015 and has been hard at work on getting stronger. Expect for him to turn up and throw down this weekend!
Women's Top Three:
Margaux Alvarez
Margaux Alvarez finished 9th at the 2015 CrossFit Games, a performance that included her absolutely dominant performace on Pedal to the Medal 1. She destroyed the pegboard climbs, leaving just about every other competitor eating her dust.
Emily Abbott
Emily Abbott has been a force in the Canadian CrossFit scene for years and finished 8th at the 2015 CrossFit Games. She's made the trip out to a couple other off season competitions, like the 2015 Granite Games, and she's looking ready to tune up her training for the 2016 season.
Carleen Mathews
Carleen Mathews had a fourth place and a 6th place finish on two of the hardest events at the 2015 CrossFit Games: Murph and Pedal to the Medal 1. She's got the fitness to contend with the best in the world and she'll get an opportunity to put her off season training to the test.
