10,000 Pull up challenge in support of McMaster's children hospital & Hamilton Combat Firefighting team.

It all started at 6am with the first pull up….. it finished 9,999 pull ups and over 15 hours later at 21:05. CrossFit Ancaster completed 10,000 pull ups for charity and along the way raised over $4,000 and the donations are still coming in!

Highlights of the day include, 9 women each doing over 200 pull ups each! Way to kick ass girls. And another 4 women doing over 100. Some of the most impressive individual displays I have seen in a long time. Eddie did 836 pull ups, Brian did 750 with a few muscle ups thrown in for good measure and Dean Morrow did 100 pull ups in full combat firefighting gear.

CrossFit Ancaster would like to thank all its members, guests, sponsors, friends and anybody else involved in this great event. Your continued support is truly appreciated.
