We’re pleased to announce our second event with CrossFit Riverfront!

SUPERFIT_COMPLETE

We’ve organized events since 2010 spanning the US! If you haven’t heard of SuperFit, we are one of the largest event organizers in the country. All of our events sell out MONTHS in advance, so please don’t wait to buy your ticket.

Some benefits of our events:

Most experienced event staff of its kind. Not another one-off weekend throwdown!
Indoor venues for all our events, meaning sponsors, athletes and spectators don’t deal with the weather
Fun, friendly atmosphere

Competition Idea
We believe being fit means being able to do well across a variety of different physical tests. As such, we’ve designed a competition that tests people for all-around skills.

Games Format

The games will incorporate a variety of different skill sets and be scaled to any level athlete. We will incorporate standard movements (bodyweight, weightlifting, kettlebells, running, rowing, etc…) in workouts that will be selected to test athletes in strength, endurance and skill. We will announce the 3 events that all competitors will participate in 48 hours prior to the competition. We typically hold a finals workout for the top 5 teams, though this varies from competition to competition.

Sample Workout Formats

Event 1: 3 Rounds of Row 500 Meters, 21 Squat Cleans, 21 Burpees
Event 2: 1 Rep Max Deadlift
Event 3: Run 800 Meters, 50 Double Unders, 50 Overhead Squats, Run 800 Meters

Divisions

Available divisions can be seen in the registration options.

RX: RX means you can do almost every “girl” workout RX. In some cases, weights and movement requirements will be more challenging than the “girl” workouts.

Novice: Novice is for athletes new to SuperFit, or competitions of it’s kind. Expect weights and movements that are still challenging, but not as challenging as our RX division.

Masters: While not always available, the Masters division is for athletes 45 and older. Expect the workouts to be somewhere between the challenge of the Novice and RX divisions.

Games Scoring and Rules

Please refer to our scoring and rules page.

Prizes

We will have a prize basket for our winners from our sponsors, as well as a custom SuperFit medal RX winners can expect to receive larger prize packages than the Novice winners.

Swag

All athletes will receive a great contest shirt from Hopper Apparel, as well as a variety of samples and freebies from our sponsors.

Entrance

Games will be open to all level athletes over the age of 16. We encourage athletes to be familiar with different fitness domains and have some exposure to CrossFit style workouts. .

Refunds

We do not do refunds for our events, but will happily accept ticket exchanges if you can find someone to buy your ticket. Please make sure to fill out a registration change request if you sell or buy a ticket.

Spectators

Please bring $10 if you want to spectate on Saturday. Kids 16 and under are free.

Weather

We will hold the event, even in a blizzard. Please come prepared.
