The November Monthly Challenge – Each year, Pat’s Gym participates in the Concept2 World Competition SkiErg for the 1000m race for the best time. This year, as in similar years we’ve had our athletes place extremely well. We even had the top individual overall as well as set a World Record. This year, Katie won in her age group with a time of 3:28.3 and set a new World Record. Great job Katie! Also, Pat’s Gym had 13 women in the top 10% of the 880 women who participated in the event. Pat’s Gym also had 6 men in the top 10% of the 1272 men who participated in this event. We are so happy with the showing of the Pat’s Gym athletes. No other gym had such a strong showing. As Concept2 said “that is a pretty amazing showing! Congratulations!!!”
At Pat’s Gym for the month of November the Monthly Challenge consists of 1000m on the SkiErg, and the athlete with the best time wins. This year the winners are Katie Hurtis with a time of 3:28.3, and Dan Jagla with a time of 3:11. Good job!
