Sweeping the Region: Christen Wagner

March 9, 2012

Christen Wagner is taking Asia by storm, sitting in 2nd place after the first two workouts.

Christen Wagner started CrossFitting in 2010, but spend most of 2010 and beginning of 2011 on deployments. 

Wagner has been CrossFitting for almost two years at Reebok CrossFit Asia. In 2011, she was unable to participate in the Open, as she suffered an unfortunate injury about three weeks before last year’s Open.

Having recovered for the 2012 season, she’s healthy and ready for competition. After finishing Workout 12.1 and completing 107 burpees, Wagner was tied for 6th place. And with Workout 12.2 in the books, 83 snatches moved her into 2nd place behind Feng Yi Chew and two spots ahead of Games competitor Candice Howe. 

It looks like 2012 will be a break out year for Wagner.
