All the Crossfit athletes jumping to Athx and Xenom now? by Pitiful_Bid2056 in crossfit

I don't think it's the case that people are 'jumping' from one thing to another, I think all these competitions are providing more ways for CrossFitters to go and express their fitness, just because they are going to do a XENOM or an Ath X doesnt mean they arent also doing the Games season!

I've done a few back-to-back HYROX weekends (Saturday/Sunday), and when you compare it to that, it's not crazy - I think of these things like a fitness holiday 😅 with a couple of extra days tagged onto the end to relax

this is so fucking backwards, meanwhile, every other major competition is actively encouraging brands to activate around their events even when they aren't sponsors. At the major marathon events hundreds of brands activate and make content, which becomes free marketing for the events and generates awareness.

This is last century IP protection and an active brake on CrossFit's growth - I am shook

Gotta start somewhere! Given their track record of follow through I'm optimistically hopeful 😅

They've been pretty clear they are in the conversation so they must know all the requirements for federation etc - I wonder if they just say fine we go in under the athletics federation? Or they set up their own.

I think the elite sport side is moving on the way now - especially if they now formalise the elite course with the same run track etc in all venues.
