2024 CrossFit Open Workout 24.1 Matchups
The live Open announcement sets the stage for the 2024 Games season and involves a total roster of athletes that numbers well into the six figures. The live announcements started during the 2013 season and grew in size and popularity through 2018. CrossFit elected not to host live Open announcements during the 2019 and 2020 seasons but returned to host them in 2021. Here’s what you need to know for 2024:
- Open Announcement 24.1 is presented by Momentous, the Official Sports Nutrition Partner of CrossFit, and will take place in Pleasanton, CA, at CrossFit Pleasanton.
- The 2023 Fittest Man on Earth, Jeffrey Adler, will take on his friend and fellow Canadian, Brent Fikowski.
- On the women’s side, two young stars who finished only 15 points apart on the 2023 CrossFit Games leaderboard, Alex Gazan and Alexis Raptis, will battle it out.
- The 24.2 announcement takes place on March 7 at CrossFit Shred Shed in Boise, ID, and will feature a head-to-head battle between Justin Medeiros and Colten Mertens.
- The 24.3 announcement features Tia-Clair Toomey-Orr competing against Arielle Loewen.
Tune in to the CrossFit Games website or CrossFit YouTube channel for the live 24.1 workout announcement on Thursday, February 29, at 12 p.m. PT. As always, the Morning Chalk Up will provide workout strategy guides and full leaderboard coverage and analysis as events unfold.
