Capt. Emma Wood, an intelligence officer with Regional Command Southwest, takes part in the final event at the inaugural CrossFit Leatherneck Fitness Challenge Throwdown at Camp Leatherneck, Afghanistan, Feb. 6. During the final event participants had to get a weight of their choosing to a full overhead position using any lift technique. After every three lifts competitors performed six burpees (a cross between a jumping jack, pushup and squat). Wood, a native of Annandale, Va., placed first overall in the women's competition.
