<p>Jon and I both worked with Kristin during the NPGL's
amateur GRID tournament - remember GRID? We put together a team of
misfits and went out to LA to compete, and we actually did pretty
well. We took second overall, which meant that we got an automatic
bid to the next year's tournament. Still waiting for that
invite...</p>
<p>Kristin has gone on to make two CrossFit Games appearances
with OC3 Black (in 2017) and CrossFit Mayhem Independence (in
2018). She will compete with CrossFit Mayhem Freedom in the 2019
season - which is shaping up to have quite the interesting
structure.</p>
