Tom Delivers Under Pressure

The CrossFit Last Chance Qualifier wrapped up this week, delivering four grueling workouts that tested every ounce of grit and determination. Athletes who narrowly missed Games qualification had one final opportunity to secure their ticket to the CrossFit games and our VOLT athlete, Tom Kingdon, came ready for the challenge.

2nd Place in Workout 2

Tom threw down with consistency across the board, demonstrating trademark tenacity in heavy lifting and high-volume gymnastics. Highlights included a 2nd place finish in workout 2, proving once again why he’s one of Europe’s most respected competitors.

Down But Not Out

Though the Games spot slipped just out of reach this year, Tom’s performance was inspiring, and sets the stage for an even bigger comeback in 2026.

The stage is already set for 2026. Tom knows exactly what’s required to break through after pushing to the edge of qualification. This year’s campaign exposed both his strengths, raw power, composure under fatigue, and elite-level gymnastics alongside the gaps that need tightening. With the experience of multiple high-stakes qualifiers under his belt, the rebuild is already underway. Expect a smarter, sharper, and even more dangerous Tom Kingdon next season.
