In the video above, Patrick Vellner recounts his experience taking on his sixth Live Announcement with CrossFit Open Workout 23.2 at CrossFit Bison in Midland Park, NJ against fellow Games athlete, Roman Khrennikov.

  • Vellner: “Things are pretty hush hush around the open announcement, but I took some sneaky phone footage this week to give you guys an idea of what goes on during the week leading up to a live announcement.”

In the live announcement, Vellner logged 162 reps in 23.2A and 270 pounds (122.4kg) in 23.2B. He currently sits in 243rd place, unofficially, after three tests and with one week remaining in the 2023 CrossFit Open.
