Watch: Team Malta Snags First Place At Major Fitness Competition In Miami
Three athletes who travelled to Miami to compete in a major crossfit competition walked with gold medals beaming on their chests.
“After years of waiting, grinding, and never giving up, we finally made it to Wodapalooza,” Pamela Psaila wrote on social media.
Jess Camilleri, Pamela Psaila and Jessica Borg Ghigo smashed the Intermediate Female category at the TYR Wodapalooza festival over the weekend, showing off their strength and stamina against 40 groups, each from a different country.
“We signed up just for fun and were happy we made it through. Being there has been a dream. THE DREAM. A dream I have always dreamt and thought was impossible,” Camilleri wrote.
“I’ve written this post a thousand times, but no words can truly capture the feeling of competing on that floor with you guys.”
These impressive women, who won with a 53-point lead, were coached by Daryl Psaila who was with them every step of the way.
The TYR Wodapalooza began as a grassroots single-day fitness competition with 145 athletes and 500 spectators in 2012 and has since established itself as the world’s premier Functional Fitness Festival. TYR Wodapalooza descends on Miami Beach for four days in January and brings together thousands of athletes, spectators, and fitness fanatics to celebrate fitness, community, and life.
There are multiple parts to the festival – the fitness competition for all backgrounds and levels (our foundation), the Gauntlet (an exciting and fast race through three workouts within an hour), and the spectator experience, which includes one of the largest collections of vendors and exhibitors as well as spectator workouts and seminars.
Congratulations!
