Slovakian Kara Frey wins silver at Dubai CrossFit Championship 2019!
Author: On 11th - 14th December 2019, the Dubai CrossFit Championship 2019 was held in Dubai. These "Games" belong to the so-called Sanctionals, which are the types of competitions that bring together TOP athletes from all over the world. Dubai CrossFit Championship has been held since 2012, lotus 28 men, 23 women and 8 teams visited Dubai for the Champioship. The competitors also included some familiar faces of CrossFit -Sara Sigmundsdóttir, Patrick Vellner, Fikowski Brent, Björgvin Karl Guðmundsson, Samantha Briggs, Jamie Greene and more.
CrossFit celebrityRich Froning, an eight-time Reebok CrossFit Games winner, was theCrossFit celebrity who led the crowd through the entire race.

The competitor who wins theSanctionals will immediately earn a spot in the Reebok CrossFit Games. It is understandable that TOP athletes from all over the world apply for these competitions, therefore it is almost impossible for a "normal" competitor to qualify for these competitions.
However, our eastern neighbours had their representative at these prestigious competitions - Kara Frey. This year, she managed to win an incredible ninth place in the CrossFit Games Open 2020 in a global comparison. So Karin really already ranks among the top athletes worldwide. She confirmed this at the 2019 Dubai CrossFit Championships, taking an incredible second place in a packed field!
