Over two days in Tiverton, GD Media photographed CrossFit 4TC’s Trios competition, with
the women’s teams competing on the Saturday and the men’s on the Sunday.
We’ve worked with 4TC before, and their Trios comps are some of our favourite events to
shoot. Teams of three mean there’s always something going on. While one athlete grinds
through the reps, their two partners are right beside them shouting them on.
The owner, Ty, runs the whole thing with Swiss watch precision. Every heat starts bang on
time, which makes our job a lot easier because we always know where we need to be
next. His workouts are also gruelling, and by the final rep you could see it on every
athlete’s face.
That’s what we were there to capture. We spent both days moving between heats and
getting as close to the action as we could, from box jumps and barbell work to that last
push when there’s nothing left in the tank. The DJ played great music all weekend, which
kept the energy up from the first heat to the last.
Each day finished with the podium, so we got shots of the top three teams followed by a
group photo of all the athletes. It’s been great seeing the photos shared and the athletes
tagging themselves.
Running a CrossFit or HYROX event and want it captured properly? Get in touch, we’d
love to hear about it.
