If you’re on tenterhooks waiting on the CrossFit Games (like we are), watch some videos featuring Iceland’s strongest athletes who will be featured in the games.
Make no mistake, Iceland’s 23 year old sweetheart, Sara Sigmundsdottir is hungry to reap the title she narrowly missed as the Fittest Woman on Earth. She’s been training hard, perfecting her nutrition and even holding out on her favourite ice cream till after the games. It takes all kinds of sacrifice to win that title.
Training with Strongman Hafþór Björnsson, who plays the character called ‘The Mountain’ in the series Games of Thrones, it’s no wonder Sara Sigmundsdottir might be the next Strongwoman soon.
Training buddies Annie Thorisdottir, a former Games champion, was forced to withdraw from the 2015 competition, while Katrin Davidsdottir surpassed Sara in the final events to win the title of Fittest Woman on Earth. It might be all fun and games in training, but it will be pure competition on the battle field.
Watch these magnificent Icelandic ladies training up to the 2016 Reebok CrossFit Games.
