Vagabond CrossFit Triumphs at Southie Showdown

It's a proud day to be a Vagabond. On November 9th and 10th, 2013 CrossFit Southie hosted the Southie Showdown: an annual individual CrossFit competition in their 15,000 sq. ft. facility on Dorchester Ave. in South Boston. Vagabond CrossFit had 25 competitors from the local Easton and surrounding areas participate- some first timers and some seasoned pros. Head Coach and owner, Kevin O’Malley, said, “Everyone did a fantastic job with meeting and exceeding my expectations and accomplishing some of their own personal goals. All of our members who participated this weekend showed their highest efforts and competed with true skill and heart.”

Highlights:

VBC Owner and Head Coach, Kevin O’Malley, finished in 9th place overall in the RX division.

VBC Coach Andrew Constantino placed 17th overall (only missing the final cut by three points)- he dominated in three of the six workouts and took top five three times.

VBC Coach Corrin Lemieux killed it- finishing 11th overall in her first individual competition and made the final cut for top 16.

VBC member Kat Austin finished 17th at RX in her first ever CrossFit competition.

VBC members Keith Derba and Carolyn Regan each represented well in their groups, finishing in the top 20%.

VBC member Dave Clark finished in second place overall in the scaled division.
