Prototype Open Week 2 Recap. 

The second week of the 2024 Prototype Open was intense, with a challenging cardio based workout consisting of rowing, deadlifts and double unders in a 20 minute AMRAP. Despite the difficulty our competitors went after it and pushed their mind and body to their limits. 

During the second week athletes also competed in Challenge 24.2! The challenge was holding a handstand for the longest amount of time as possible. At the end the top 3 finishers for men and woman earned 5 points for their team!

The top finishers (male and female) for challenge 24.2 were Tim Welch, Brendan Sheehan, Griffin Barriere, Coreen Williamson, Gillian Barry, and Jess Clancy! Team Yellow gaining those top points with that girl power! Coreen with an unbelievable time of 3 minutes!

After challenge 24.2 and WOD 24.2 the points were scored as follows: top finishers for the RX and scaled categories each earned 5 points for their team. Everyone who completed the WOD earned 1 point. Everyone who completed the challenge earned 1 point. Top 3 finishers for the challenge earned 5 points each. Winners of our head to head challenge also won 5 points for their team.

WOD 24.2 was a 20 minute AMRAP of a 300m row, 10 deadlifts, and 50 double unders.

On Friday night we had our second head to head competition of this years Open. It was battle of the coaches with Michelle Lamb subbing in for Tommy Flynn while he was away. Abhi Das, Melanie Rivera, Asmahan Olivia and Michelle Lamb took on 24.2 to earn points for their team. It was a close one but at the end Abhi took home first place, with Michelle coming in second. The whole time Melanie and Asmahan were neck and neck but with seconds to spare Asmahan got in just one more rep and took third place.

At the end of the night there was tears shed, lots of sweat and a very much needed drink after completing the workout. Some athletes achieved personal bests, and others surprised themselves with how much they were able to accomplish. Regardless of the score everyone left feeling proud of themselves for completing the workout when it never seemed to end and grateful for the community that we have built who kept us going when we wanted to quit.

Just like last week this week we selected our award winners for passion, spirit, top performance, and hard worker. Passion award was given to Dan McCarthy, Spirit went to Bath Varner, Top Performer went to Coreen Williamson, and Hard Worker went to Sandy Brock! Dan is always in the gym cheering everyone on regardless of what team they’re in. Beth has brought the spirit with her green attire, bringing in drinks and snacks for everyone to enjoy and even helping out her captain putting scores in when needed. Coreen had an amazing performance with 24.2 challenge holding the handstand for 3 minutes! And Sandy has come to open gym every Sunday to complete the workout AGAIN to try and get a better score for herself!

Kathy has been an amazing member of the PTS community for 12 years and an incredible part of our community. Here, she shares her journey with Prototype. Thank you for being you — you truly deserve to be our July POM! 1.) Share your experience at Prototype I love Prototype. I knew Mike and Brian from BSC and Mike approached me one day, saying that he thought I would really love a crossfit workout. Naturally, I thought he was out of his mind. I have loved every minute of my time for the past 12 years. 2.) What is your favorite part about being at Prototype? The community. No matter what class I take, everyone is warm and welcoming. It isn’t always easy to walk into a new class, at Prototype that is never an issue for me. 3.) What are your hobbies and activities? I love to travel. I enjoy hiking, walking, tennis and swimming. 4.) How has Prototype helped you or solved a problem for you? When I am at Prototype, I can block out the noise of the world around me and just breathe. 5.) What are you continuing fitness goals to this point? My dad lived until 101.5 years old. He always did some form of exercise and it paid off for him. My goals are to continue to be active, get on the floor with my grandchildren and be able to get up. I really feel that exercising is akin to making a deposit for the future. There will come a time when I will have to make some withdrawals, and I want to have enough deposits to cover those withdrawals. 6.)
