2008 CrossFit Games Dead-Lift/Burpee WOD

2008 CrossFit Games Dead-Lift/ Burpee WOD
5 Rounds for Time of:
5 Deadlifts (275)
10 Burpees
4:19 Rx

Here is the final info from the event in 2008:

Another great heat was the 10:20 Men's Deadlift/Burpee workout. The competition was fierce, with the top five finishing within 10sec of each other.

There was a bit of extra drama at the starting, when Brett Marshall took his place in front of one of the bars. Brett hadn't planned on competing. He had been saying for months that he would come only to support his fellow Canadians in their quest to retain the title. But when he got back to Aromas, the spirit of competition was too great. Given his performance the previous year (2nd overall), Dave Castro gave the OK, and Brett was in.

The finishing order for the heat was:

1. Chris Spealler 2:41
2. Eric O'Connor 2:44
3. Ricky Frausto 2:46
4. Pat Barber 2:49
5. Dutch Lowy 2:51
6. Brendan Gilliam 3:18
7. Brett Marshall 3:29
8. Scott Delozier 4:17
9. Jeff Fleming 4:38
10. Edgar Pangilinan 5:26
11. Jason Westfall 5:34
12. Gabe Rinaldi 5:39
