So this event is a 1RM snatch, the second event has a bike in it, some other event is run/swim/run, and there's an obstacle course

Who can win the 1RM snatch event? On the men's side, the number one contender is obviously Mat Fraser. Others to watch for would be Alex Anderson, Garret Fisher, Brent Fikowski, Scott Panchik, EZ Muhammad, and Ben Smith.

On the women's side, Kara Webb has a huge lead here, having a 220lb snatch PR. Close behind her are Brooke Wells (215lb) and Alessandra Pichelli (210lb). There are plenty of women who might push past the 200lb mark as well, including Sigmundsdottir, Huckaby, Reason-Thibault, Davidsdottir, and Leblanc Bazinet.
