The  CrossFit Helo “Smallest Winner” Challenge Winners are as follows:  
1.  Lynda – Congratulations to our Champion!
2. Cassi.
3. Shane, and,
Honorable Mentions:  Scott H. and Ben S.

Our 30 day Challenge had 24 participants and 3 coaches that finished.  In total the box lost 196.2 pounds and 154.25 inches.  We had an extremely difficult time narrowing it down to our 5 finalists and then among those 5, only a few points separated them from each other at the end.  In true CrossFit Games style, we took each category, a. the Log; b. pounds lost as percentage of total body weight; c.  inches lost; d. Wod #1; e. Wod #2, and f. pictures, which were ranked from lowest to highest number (1st through 5th), with the lowest number winning.  Interestingly, every one of the finalists won at least a single category.

With 24 Competitors (or a total pot of $480) and the close competition, the prizes are awarded as follows:  The Winner will receive $240.  Second Place will receive $120. Third Place will receive $80; and, both Honorable Mentions will receive $20 each.

We hope that everyone has found a benefit from this Challenge as we certainly have been rewarded watching each and everyone of you succeed during the last 30 days!  There were numerous examples of double digit weight loss with the most being 16.2 pounds as well as 11.65 inches, not to mention great stories of struggle and achievement.  To us, as cliche as it sounds, we do think you are all winners.  Below are the examples of our finalists “Before” and “After” pics – we hope you agree they have done an outstanding job and make sure to congratulate them when you see them next! In conclusion, we thank you for making our first challenge such a great success!!
