The GRACE Finals Recap

Posted by Danette Rivera : Tuesday, Aug 21, 2012

After six weeks of cleans, jerks, practice, and hard training, the GRACE Challenge came to a sweaty conclusion this past Saturday here at CFLA. We saw some pretty amazing performances and all kinds of improvement!

Of the 55 CFLA athletes who finished the challenge, 53 of them improved on their times from the prelims. 46 out of the 55 cut at least 10% off of their prelims time, and 27 improved by at least 20%. It just goes to show what some focus can do for your training in a short period of time!

In Their Own Words...
My daughter has been going to CFLAKids for nearly two months and she loves it. I love it for her. She is, in general, very athletic and coming here fosters her desire to be competitive, which is important to me. Girls should be able to let this side thrive, if they want it.. The classes make her stronger and faster and more able to enjoy the other sports she's involved in. - Danette R.
