2023 CrossFit Games Results — Individual & Teams Day One [Live Updates]
The 2023 CrossFit Games started three days ago for Age Groups and Adaptive divisions, but August 3rd marks the first day for Individuals and Teams in Madison, Wisconsin. Day One promises to be extremely exciting, since it consists of a couple technically-demanding workouts. Building up a lead in the early stages has proven to be very beneficial in previous years. So, performing well on day one is undoubtedly very important.
As many know by now, this will be the final year that the CrossFit Games take place in Madison. So, all of the athletes will look to make their final memory here a pleasant one. In addition, as some podium finishers from last year — Toomey, O’Brien, and Garard — have already withdrawn, everything remains open for any athlete on the field.

Day One Workout Recap For Individuals
Ride
The first workout of the 2023 CrossFit Games could not be any more simple. The athletes just had to perform a 40-minute bike race, with the goal of completing more laps than their rivals. After the 40 minutes were up, the athletes raced until the end of their lap. So, for athletes who performed the same number of laps, the time needed to cross the finish line was used to determine the exact position
The length of the lap in total was 2,600 meters, but it was dissected into two parts. One was a 2,400-meter ride on the bike, while the other was a 200-meter run. The circuit also consisted of many turns, as well as some incline portions, which made it much more difficult.
- Complete as many laps as possible in 40 minutes on a Trek Bikes Marlin 8 mountain bike.
Women’s Results
After 30 minutes of cycling, it was clear that Emma Lawson would win the event, but the race for second and third place was incredibly tight. While it seemed that Emily Rolfe was secure in second place, a cluster of six athletes followed behind her. With some teamwork between them, they managed to catch up to Rolfe, and it became a sprint race to the end.
However, Rolfe still managed to find a burst of energy and reclaim her second spot in the final moments of the race, beating Emma Tall by just a few seconds.

Men’s Results
Another year brings another amazing start for Jonne Koski, who picked out the max 100 points on workout one of the 2023 CrossFit Games. He is notorious for placing high at the start of competitions in the past few years, but has now reached perfection with an event win. He cycled a perfect race, often riding behind other athletes to reduce the air drag. So, when the last lap came, Jonne was still energized and ready for a sprint in the final meters of the race.
Jonne Koski was a part of a five-man bundle that held together from start to finish. So, it was unclear who would finish in the top three until the final few seconds. Jeffrey Adler ended up in second, while Jay Crouch finished just behind in third.
Surprisingly, the two biggest favorites for the 2023 CrossFit Games, Justin Medeiros and Pat Vellner, had a terrible start to the competition. Both finished near the bottom of the leaderboards.

- Jeffrey Adler
