This week on THE SPIN, Colten Mertens joined the show. We talked about FitFest, improving his running over the past year, preparing for the 2025 CrossFit Games season and possibly traveling to Sanctionals.
I also asked Colten about his experience on the Demo Team and how his interaction with Dave during that differed from his interactions while competing. It was a great answer (25:24).
We also got Colten to hang around for Blind Rankings. The topic…Podcastin’ Athletes (27:37).
After that, we get into some Viewer Comments, including the best comment (see below) we have received in a very long time, if not ever. (40:51)
At 1:00:40, we get into Pat Vellner’s interview with Pedro on Coffee Pods & Wods. We break down his comments, ranging from CrossFit’s action items for the 2025 season, the 2025 season structure and competing online and the PFAA.
And we close out the show with announcing the winners of the Frog Grips $500 giveaway package and the three people who will get their Black Friday purchase refunded.
Three Refunded Purchases:
- Nicolle Senra
- Ryan Escalera
- Grant Wright
And the winner of $500 worth of Frog Grips merchandise is… @katfrieds.
