What an incredible athlete! Can someone explain the Spirit of CrossFit award and how the person is chosen? Seems to me that any one of those athletes, male or female, could easily be the "spirit of crossfit."

Chris you are an awesome athlete and I appreciate your spirit of humility. You always handle winning well and that is the mark of a true champion. Thank you for politeness and clean talk on every video. I can always let my kids watch you and tell them to imitate this guy's life. A strong athlete and a man of character.
