Photos: Second 'Fittest of Elk Grove' Qualifier Finalizes Lineup

Organizers say 50 athletes of all ages participated in the second qualifying event for the Fittest of Elk Grove Saturday, growing the field of participants and finalizing the contestants for the finals later this month.

The contestants gathered at WarriorZ CrossFit; the top finishers will join those who qualified at an event at CrossFit 916 last month.

"Also having a 13 year old girl and a 64 year old man really shows that fitness does not have any age barriers!"
