From base camp (our GridCast studios), we stare down McKinley as the first week of

competition draws near.  Week one matches under the McKinley format require brute

strength and physical determination to summit the obstacles and claim victory at the top,

and we predict who we think will be victorious when the dust settles in San Jose, CA.

Do you watch any of the matches and races and wonder what the common denominator is

between all the different formats?  Well, at GridCastU we explain what each match

entails, regardless of which mountain you are trying to climb.

Our featured guest in Quadrant 3 is a former Reebok CrossFit Games competitor from

team Rockin CrossFit Honey Badgers, he is an award winning flight-paramedic from

Modesto California and a 16 year veteran for the Sacramento City Fire Department.  He

gives amazing hugs and always has a smile on his face, he is a 40+ athlete on the

San Francisco Fire, and an awesome dude, he’s Chad Augustin, you don’t want to miss

it!
