Prepare for the Unknown – CrossFit

To all of my athletes … your dedication and preparation for the Iron Star Games have been nothing short of fantastic. You have practiced the workouts and honed your technique. You have all won great victories and sampled the bitter taste of defeat. The Iron Star Games will determine who wins and who is second-best. So I’ll leave you with some words of wisdom … those that read the closest will rise above the rest. – Coach Paul

To solve the first riddle many partook,
But to CrossFit games apast some mistook,
To the text you must betook,
For I have explained where to look,
On Wednesday I reveal what’s a-foot,
But wait too long and your goose be cooked.

Four wise scholars have secured their place, But what of the others who have felt disgraced? Should I share some details about the second clue? Or just make things harder with a confusing line or two? I suggest you carefully check over your order, Lest the last riddle leave you drawn and quartered.

So you solved my little trick, and some of you solved it awfully quick,
A new challenge lays in store for a 10-second headstart and 20 rewards points more.

But first, you find where the new puzzle presides,
Easy, just look at where your likeness hides.
