In 50 years from now the games could potentially be only past champions.
I want to see Mikko still fire breathing in his 80s!

In 50 years this year's champion won't be able to compete at that level. OPT was already saying he won't come back and he won just 3 years ago, I would love to see him compete again though, he did awesome in '09 regardless of not competing in the final WOD.
I see Jason and Tanya have qualified twice, I wonder if they will get two chances at every workout! lol

Joe, funny shit. I think the field will need two chances just to catch up with them, lol.
I love these folks who are prequalified as well as the ones who are able to qualify at all, period. Anyone else notice how this sport not only identifies the best athletes among us, but also the best human beings among us?
Looking forward to watching and learning a lot more from all these excellent individuals.
