From fatass to badass: Milestones in Awesomeness

I've been editing the previous post with every PR instead of making new ones, so this thread looks like it hasn't been updated for a while when in reality I've been improving. Here's a new post so I can keep my scores for the 2016 Crossfit Games Open

 

16.1 = 189 Scaled

16.2 = 176 Scaled

16.3 = 78 Scaled

16.4 = 146 Scaled

16.5 = 33:34 Rx

 

15.863 Overall

47th in my Country

17.1 = 222 Scaled

17.2 = 107 Scaled

17.3 = 93 Scaled

17.4 = 16.4 = 175 Scaled

17.5 = 13:36 Scaled

 

Due to a rise in the number of participants, it's hard to compare simply by ranking, so I'll use percentages. Also, due to a change in how Crossfit sets up the leaderboards, 2016 numbers don't take into account athletes who signed up but didn't submit scores for some or all of the workouts. Also, actual participants might be more, due to ties in the rankings.

 

2016 numbers

99.625th in the world out of 102.681 male athletes. Better than 3% of male participants

15.871th in Europe out of 16.248 male athletes. Better than 2,3% of male participants

47th in Greece out of 49 male athletes. Better than 4,1% of male participants

16.4 score: 146 reps

 

2017 numbers

181.368th in the world out of 201.949 male athletes. Better than 10.2% of male participants

35.292nd in Europe out of 38.237 male athletes. Better than 7,7% of male participants

127th in Greece out of 135 male athletes. Better than 5,9% of male participants

17.4 score: 175 reps

 

While I had fun during this year's Open, I didn't feel badass or that I'd made any significant progress until 17.4 came up. Adding up the numbers now, it is apparent that I've done better on all fronts, but the slow grinding process makes it hard to realize.

I'm smiling right now skimming through the milestones. I always enjoy finding these kind of threads showing progression. My goal is to also have one if these one day.
