OCR Qatar

It's been a while... who is up to start again?

Great time at the Esrar race this morning. Great to see the community out in force and congrats to coach on her podium finish!

@ Aspire Park Doha Qatar

Good luck to all the OCR community who are competing this week! Busy weekend with the Qatar Running Series, Crossfit events and of course and OCR race, Esrar! HIT THOSE GOALS!

After the success of Melissa's 11s to celebrate an assumed 11th place AG finish in the Trifecta World Champs (she was actually 10th 😀), it was time for Melissa's 3s Plus Ryan's 9s to celebrate Coaches and 3rd and 9th place AG finishes at the Jebel Sifah Beast.

One person from two teams run out to grab a tennis ball or shuttlec**k and the team does 12 reps of the corresponding exercise.

Join us on Wednesday evenings at 6.30pm or our new time of 6pm on Mondays at Al Bidda Park for our community workouts.

Happy birthday Coach from everyone in the community! Who needs a party when you can have Tug of War!

The stats...

3x Podium finishes
3x Weekend Trifecta Finishers
3x Spartan Middle East Qualifiers
2x Burpee Free Races

Epic weekend for the OCR Qatar community!

Congratulations to our community members who finished the first leg of the Spartan Oman Trifecta Weekend today. Coach who got a podium finish in 3rd in her age group, Coach who got a top 10 finish in his age group, and with a strong showing the the Open Category. Aroo!

2 more races to go!

Wednesday night carries and chippers... while one team did a heavy carry run, the other completed a chipper, competing for number of reps. Team 2 took out the first two rounds and Team 1 won the last two so both teams did the burpee punishment!

Good luck to all people racing at Oman Trifecta Weekend!

First Wednesday of the month at Al Bidda Park is fitness test time! killed the YoYo Intermittent Recovery Test with a level 22.1! Massive!

Then it was time for a team workout we called "Melissa's 11" in honour of our coach and her 11th place AG finish at the Spartan Trifecta Team Championship. Team members ran one at a time to pick up a tennis ball/shuttle c**k and the number on it corresponded to 11 reps of the given exercise each team member had to complete. Despite a valiant effort Team Tennis Balls beat Team Shuttle C***s!

Best of luck to our coach who tackles the Spartan Trifecta World Championship for the second time this weekend! Smash it!
