The Gump Games, hosted by River Region CrossFit and sponsored by CrossFit Montgomery, was Saturday, January 28, 2012. The Gump Games was a one-day event and fundraiser for the Arts Council of Montgomery. The event was held at The Armory Gymnastics Center on Madison Avenue, right down the street from The Boneyard.
CrossFit Montgomery had several members and coaches volunteering and competing. We had 7 athletes place in the top 10 and 20 place in the top 20. Here’s what we know: RX Males: Michael Geranis (1st), Steve Shirley (3rd), Nate Naidas (4th), Cory (11th), Greg Harback (12th), Greg Coleman (16th); RX Female: Michelle Artolachipe (5th); Scaled Males: Brandon King (4th) and Larry (8th); and Scaled Female: Jenna Shields King (2nd).

All proceeds from registration are to be donated to the Arts Council of Montgomery. There were three ways you could participate: run the 5K, run the 5K and complete two CrossFit WODs as a prescribed/advanced or scaled athlete, or volunteer to assist or judge. Cost: $35 for run, $85 for all three events.
CrossFit Montgomery attended Garage Games One on February 11-12 in Woodstock, Georgia for the third year. The Garage Games in February 2010 was the first Garage Games event that started it all – the 2011 Garage Games Series (totaling 15 events including our event, Pound For Pound, in April 2011).
This year, individuals in beginners, scaled, and advanced divisions competed on Saturday and teams competed on Sunday. Mickey competed as a scaled individual and placed 8th overall and 1st in her age group. Team BMF (David, Mike, Nate & Steve) placed 33rd out of 54 Rx teams. Team ‘Yard Dogs (Brandon, Jof, Katechis & Tosh) placed 29st out of 35 scaled teams. Team Shawtays (Amy, Christy, Jenna & Jennie) placed 17th out of 35 scaled teams and 3rd out of 11 scaled all-female teams.
