RAGNHEIÐUR SARA SIGMUNDSDOTTIR

The icelandic native is another flagship of Crossfit. After stroming to the Meridian Regional win in 2015 and finishing 3rd at her first Games, she copied her her performance in 2016 with another Regional win and 3rd place at the Games. This year she is training with no less then Rich Froning and therefore changed the Region from Meridian to Central.
