welcome into madison wisconsin the site of the 2021 noble crossfit games at the alliant energy center and for the first time in over a year full competition back in madison wisconsin [Music] and it feels so good to be back welcome to the crossfit games [Music] so it's 6 40 ish in the morning we have to be there at seven bus leaves at 7 15 and then we get briefed for the event i don't know the start time of the event but i just know that we all start in the water then we're getting right off out of the water rinse off get back on the bus apparently get right ready for um individual event two fast turnaround open ceremony morning and then three four five i don't know what else after that don't even know my start times for event two so do you want me to make you an oatmeal [Music] okay i'm gonna go ask her yeah cuz they're like how's everything ready for today on the left so like yeah that one get the jam's going what's your go-to [Music] this is like really is a good event to start with though if you were to start with a pig event it's not really a good event to have like nerves on and like you know get all jittery you ready ready all right okay this hallway is so hot do you want to go do we have time yeah go brush them we'll go get this to the car looks like i feel it okay okay here i go yeah so we're here for um check-in yeah they're recently just telling us to bring everything that we need for today have all the food maybe after this event [Music] it's seven they don't go until nine so she's got a little bit of time but they do all this prep stuff to make sure they get in there early they're all prepared warmed up ready to go i think her heat's nine so she'll be able to come back here so we're trying to figure out what to do with all her bags so that she's available and has everything but also be there for her um so we're gonna see if we can get to the venue i don't know the details on that in half a mile turn left to merge onto us12 east i need you guys to hustle over get caps and chips because we've got to get you guys in the water smash it we are ready for the opening event for both the men and the women here at the 2021 noble crossfit games and this is the type of test that we are used to seeing kick things off at the game the weather out on lake winona 75 degrees calm winds water temperature at 78. we have a new implement with that kayak as the paddle portion of this starting event right now haley is on her kayak i think she was sixth or seventh maybe coming out of the water which is a really good placement to come out of the water in i think she'll do very well at the kayak so um yeah we're going to catch up we're trying to find the live stream where she's at not exactly sure [Applause] [Music] here we go [Applause] [Music] [Applause] is [Music] [Applause] [Music] no one else got it [Music] um i think what time is it what did that even take thank you do you want the oatmeal or what do you want oh nice yeah you want to check out what it is oatmeal's in there and a spoon like absolutely incredible i mean a fifth place finish like that's amazing yeah so yeah and she found another unique way to take skin off of her body honestly yes i was thinking that i didn't say it but i'm like we can't have any more battle it's like her superpower it is come out from a workout with burns those are going to hurt tonight you're a videographer now no no i don't think this thing's on i can't tell like i press the red button it's just easier for me to talk to people when i'm pointing something at them yeah hey just talk to me [Applause] [Music] standby here we go number two [Music] is here we go [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] so we just finished event two and event three haley came in fifth on event two which was like pig lips and muscle ups um in a sled pull and then shoes came in third on a 550 yard sprint which is crazy impressive um so feeling really good she was in second going into this sprint where she got third so she'll stay in second because tia won um but she'll just gain points on people behind her so that's what you want to do throughout like just keep gaining points as best you can for her to come in third on a sprint like that is pretty incredible because like short and fast really isn't her her jam is like endurance and long so yeah i'm excited for it they don't know what the last event is for today going to opening ceremonies so i'm gonna go back get her some rice and chicken so that if she wants to eat that before the last event she can have it or if like once she finishes that event we're like okay let's get a meal because sometimes it's hard to eat full meals just going through the intensity of it you're eating like gummy bears and like carbs and just anything that's easy so at worst case she'll eat it post like let's get this down because this is all about fueling and right now they're supposed to have a rest day tomorrow i think it's truly going to be a rest day because i heard like this day one is gonna be a really big day one is what everyone's been saying which obviously we can see they've done three events and we have a mystery fourth event so that's plenty of workouts for one day so yeah we're just fueling up so she can go through the rest of the weekend [Music] during the games like this point she kind of stops worrying about as much as like logging she logs in ways and measures everything when you're in the games like you just need to be putting down food on a day like this where it's really hot out and you're doing a bunch of workouts just anything that you can that feel sounds good to eat like carbs wise to put that down so she's got like gummy bears she's got the bpn carbs she's got bars you know gatorade she's not going to eat this until i'm assuming after her last workout but i want to make sure she has it in case she's like no i feel like i really um okay she said a1 perfect which i feel like we can just bring a1 with us and she can add that yeah a1 lasts a while that's basically it [Applause] here here it is [Applause] you have to be impressed with this a young lady she came out of that workout and she said i'm so proud of that i'm so proud of how i did i was definitely feeling and then be getting a little bit nervous because the barbell felt heavy but she still moved it well zero no reps this it's awesome it's totally awesome she came in 11th out of 40 women on something that was really dominated by that barbell so that's just incredibly impressive and definitely shows that not only she has grown physically stronger but her mental game is way better too like she's emotionally like i got this i'm going to go in and do it and do it the right way like not get freaked out not run someone else's race she runs her own race haley's just like incredibly smart especially for 20. you can't really beat that that was good that was very good i'm going to rest my bicep now like i'm still very very proud of that that workout slightly would have terrified me last year and it kind of did this year too i just kept it quiet i'm like it's fun it smells lovely it's fun hi can i get an autograph did you just run here yes there you go oh you're so welcome [Music] peace

I honestly thought her 185 snatch at the MACC was a breakthrough but the games proved me wrong.

I do remember watching Rogue last year and coach Bergner flat out saying she’s got long femurs and even if she gets stronger she’s never going to squat worth a damn. Honestly, her ceiling is probably Sam Briggs, tremendous engine but just a lack of top end strength that will probably keep her from breaking through in today’s CrossFit era.

In my humble opinion, i believe Haley is the only “natural” (finalist) female athlete in crossfit , she is truly remarkable!
