MADISON, Wisconsin –The Marine Corps partnered with CrossFit for the 2018 Reebok CrossFit Games, where thousands of athletes and spectators traveled from across the world to compete at the Alliant Energy Center, August 1-5. The Games featured the Marines’ “Battleground”, an obstacle course with cargo net rope climbs, low crawls, wall climbs and more. Also available to the spectators and competitors was the Battles Won Challenge trailer, a Marine Corps-themed mobile exercise trailer designed to test challengers physically and mentally. CrossFit promotes both a physical exercise philosophy and competitiveness; working to incorporate elements from high-interval training, Olympic weight-lifting, plyometrics, powerlifting, gymnastics, calisthenics, strongman, and many other training techniques. CrossFit athletes share many of the same values as those exhibited by Marines. (U.S. Marine Corps video by LCpl. Haley Gawronski)
