Final 2421, Final 1815

The final event of the 2024 CrossFit Games was a high-stakes 2-in-1 workout, offering double points. Furthermore, it was divided into two segments: ‘Final 2421’ and ‘Final 1815’. Additionally, athletes had just two minutes of rest between the two challenging sections. Consequently, competitors needed to manage their recovery time effectively to excel.

Event 9: Final 2421

The first of the two events emphasized thrusters and chest-to-bar pull-ups, targeting both upper and lower body muscles. Consequently, athletes needed to engage multiple muscle groups effectively. Moreover, this focus ensured a comprehensive workout, testing their overall strength and endurance.

For time:

• 24 thrusters (65/95 lb)
• 24 chest-to-bar pull-ups
• 80-foot yoke carry (245/425 lb)
• 21 chest-to-bar pull-ups
• 21 thrusters

Rest 2 minutes, then

Event 10: Final 1815

The second part of the workout resembled the first but posed a greater challenge. Moreover, thrusters and Yoke Carries were performed with heavier weights, amplifying the difficulty. Furthermore, athletes had to tackle muscle-ups instead of pull-ups, adding to the intensity.

• 18 thrusters (95/135 lb)
• 18 bar muscle-ups
• 80-foot yoke carry (345/525 lb)
• 15 bar muscle-ups
• 15 thrusters

2. Bjorgvin Karl Gudmundsson — 5:07.78
3. Ricky Garard — 5:18.73

Women’s Results

Event 9:

Alexis Raptis triumphed in the ninth event of the 2024 CrossFit Games with a time of 2:38.75. Moreover, because she felt comfortable with the event’s setup and weights, she was able to navigate the course efficiently. As a result, she secured 100 points.

However, they quickly separated themselves from the competition by completing the final 30-foot lunges well before any other team had even finished the pull-ups. As a result, Peak 360 earned 100 points, which proved vital for the podium and title races.

Additionally, CrossFit Invictus Unconquerable took second place with a time of 6:48.40. Furthermore, they managed to secure their position by staying ahead of their rivals throughout the event. Meanwhile, 8th Day CrossFit came in third, finishing eight seconds behind Invictus.

Additionally, athletes had to complete 80 synchronized deadlifts between each push.

For time:

• 120-foot Snail push (720 lb)
• 80 synchro deadlifts (225/315 lb)

120-foot Snail push

CrossFit Mayhem secured an event win but could not break back into the top three overall standings. Meanwhile, Raw Iron CrossFit claimed second place, earning the title of Fittest Team on Earth. This marked a historic achievement, as no Australian team had ever won the CrossFit Games before.

However, the competition remains intense, and other athletes are still hopeful of overtaking them for the top spots.

2024 CrossFit Games Day 3

The day 3 of the 2024 CrossFit Games has wrapped up in Fort Worth, Texas, setting the stage for the final day. With just one day remaining, Tia-Clair Toomey and Brent Fikowski are leading their divisions and are favored to win.

Meanwhile, Brent Fikowski, a seasoned competitor, holds a 45-point lead over James Sprague. However, with strong performances on the final day, Fikowski has a prime opportunity to claim the title of Fittest Man on Earth.

2024 CrossFit Games Day 3 Individual Events Highlights 

Chad

Chad stands out as one of the most grueling single-exercise workouts in CrossFit.  Moreover, athletes face the daunting task of climbing 1,000 steps while carrying a weighted ruck. Furthermore, this challenge is not for the faint-hearted, as the repetitive motion puts extreme strain on the body.

Consequently, participants find themselves utterly exhausted. Moreover, the continuous climb leaves their legs and core intensely fatigued. Lastly, this test of endurance pushes even the most experienced competitors to their limits.

For time:

• 1,000 step-ups (35/45 lb)
• *Completed as 250 trips

Men’s Results

While height provided a physical advantage to some athletes in the Chad workout, mental resilience and determination were essential for a strong performance. Furthermore, after nearly 45 minutes of climbing 1,000 steps with a weighted ruck, the competition narrowed down to a few reps. Although Austin Hatfield held the lead for much of the workout, James Sprague overtook him in the final minutes.

Similarly, the race for third place was intensely competitive. Furthermore, Patrick Vellner and Roman Khrennikov were neck and neck, separated by just a few reps. Ultimately, Khrennikov secured third place with a time of 46:33.00, narrowly beating Vellner by three seconds.

1. James Sprague — 43:58.00
2. Austin Hatfield — 44:09.00
3. Roman Khrennikov — 46:33.00
4. Patrick Vellner — 46:36.00
5. Dallin Pepper — 47:16.00
6. Brent Fikowski — 47:36.00
7. Jelle Hoste — 48:32.00
8. Jay Crouch — 48:40.00
9. Jayson Hopper — 49:16.00
10. Harry Lightfoot — 49:44.00

Women’s Results

The Chad workout proved just as grueling for the women, who tackled the same 1,000 steps and carried a 35-pound backpack. Moreover, Emily Rolfe emerged victorious, pushing herself to the limit and finishing in 47:01.00. Consequently, her performance secured her the event win.

In contrast, Gabriela Migala crossed the finish line in second place, 14 seconds behind Rolfe. Meanwhile, Haley Adams, making a remarkable return to the CrossFit Games, secured third place with a time of 47:46.00.

1. Emily Rolfe — 47:01.00
2. Gabriela Migala — 47:15.00
3. Haley Adams — 47:46.00
4. Tia-Clair Toomey — 48:19.00
5. Aimee Cringle — 48:46.00
6. Bethany Flores — 49:14.00
7. Andreia Pinheiro — 49:24.00
8. Chloe Gauvin-David — 49:28.00
9. Paige Semenza — 49:46.00
10. Caroline Stanley — 49:65.00

Clean Ladder

The Clean, a fundamental weightlifting movement, serves as an ideal test of both fitness and strength. Moreover, athletes faced the challenge of multiple rounds with progressively heavier weights. Therefore, while larger, more conditioned athletes seemed poised for success, the technique required for the Clean proved equally crucial in determining their performance.

For time:

• Round 1: 3-3-2-2-1 cleans
• Round 2: 2-1-1-1 cleans
• Round 3: 1-1-1 cleans
• Round 1: 165/175/185/195/205 lb / 255/265/275/285/295 lb
• Round 2: 205/215/225/230 lb / 295/305/315/325 lb
• Round 3: 230/240/250 lb / 325/345/365 lb

Men’s Results

The playing field was cut in half after each round. By the third round, only ten athletes remained. Furthermore, they faced the challenge of cleaning three incredibly heavy barbells, with the heaviest weighing 365 pounds. In the earlier rounds, speed was key. However, in the final round, pure strength became the deciding factor. Under immense pressure, Justin Medeiros was the first to clean the heaviest barbell. His final time was 37.24 seconds.

Additionally, Bruno Marins and Travis Mayer also managed to lift the heaviest weight. Moreover, they were just fractions of a second behind Justin. Furthermore, Bruno finished in second place with a time of 37.74 seconds. Lastly, Travis Mayer, despite being only 0.17 seconds slower than Marins, had to settle for third place.

1. Justin Medeiros — 37.24
2. Bruno Marins — 37.74
3. Travis Mayer — 37.91
4. Jack Rozema — 41.73
5. Ricky Garard — 42.48

Women’s Results

Tia-Clair Toomey is a constant favorite in any CrossFit event. This was evident in the Clean Ladder, where she secured yet another victory. She understands the value of each point and consistently pushes herself to the limit. In this event, she had to summon every ounce of energy to edge out Kyra Milligan by just 0.1 seconds.

Kyra Milligan delivered an outstanding performance, one that would have easily won against most competitors. Yet, she faced the formidable challenge of competing during Tia-Clair Toomey’s reign. Kyra executed each Clean flawlessly, but even her best wasn’t enough to take the top spot.

1. Tia-Clair Toomey — 25.05
2. Kyra Milligan — 25.15
3. Alex Gazan — 27.49
4. Gabriela Migala — 31.98
5. Emma Lawson 1:13.61

Push Pull 2.0

The final Individual event of day three, Push Pull 2.0, lived up to its name. To begin, athletes had to execute multiple handstand push-ups, a movement that requires both strength and precision.

Then, they faced the sled pull, an incredibly demanding task. Furthermore, this challenge became even more daunting after the exhausting Chad and Clean Ladder workouts earlier in the day.

For time:

• 45 handstand push-ups
• 80-foot sled pull from standing (110/180 lb)
• 30 strict handstand push-ups
• 80-foot sled pull seated from the platform
• 15 freestanding handstand push-ups

Time cap: 10 minutes

Men’s Results

The freestanding handstand push-ups posed the greatest challenge for many of the men. Several competitors couldn’t complete the event, struggling to master this demanding technique. Yet, Saxon Panchik handled both parts of the event with ease, finishing in an impressive 6:31.80. Furthermore, this performance earned him maximum points and stands out as one of the most exceptional at the 2024 CrossFit Games.

In comparison, Brent Fikowski secured second place with a time of 7:08.36. His result, while slower, was crucial for maintaining his overall lead going into the final day. Meanwhile, Jay Crouch finished third but showed potential for more. Moreover, he had been ahead of Fikowski’s pace until the freestanding handstand push-ups slowed him down.

1. Saxon Panchik — 6:31.80
2. Brent Fikowski — 7:08.36
3. Jay Crouch — 7:24.83
4. Ruan Potgieter — 7:35.94
5. Justin Medeiros — 7:56.36
6. Calum Clements — 8:05.76
7. Cole Greashaber — 8:06.75
8. Cole Sager — 8:15.51
9. Travis Mayer — 8:29.66
10. Jayson Hopper — 8:37.48

Women’s Results

Lexi Neely, a rookie at the 2024 CrossFit Games, dominated the final event of the third day. Also, drawing on her gymnastics background, Lexi excelled in the 15 freestanding handstand push-ups. Furthermore, she executed nine consecutive reps, followed by six more, outpacing the competition. In contrast, most athletes broke the exercise into five sets of three reps with rest periods. Lexi’s time of 06:03.41 was unmatched.

Additionally, Alexis Raptis also delivered a strong performance but fell short of Lexi’s impressive pace. However, despite being nearly 30 seconds slower, Alexis secured second place and earned significant points.

1. Lexi Neely — 06:03.41
2. Alexis Raptis — 06:31.62
3. Brooke Wells — 06:47.44
4. Chloe Gauvin-David — 06:49.86

2024 CrossFit Games Day 3 Teams Events Highlights

Inverted Earthworm

The earthworm cleans required a collective effort, while the handstand push-ups did not need to be split evenly among team members. Thus, teams could focus on athletes skilled in this movement. However, they still had to be cautious not to overexert their strengths and risk burnout.

For time:

• 20 Earthworm cleans
• 60 handstand push-ups
• 20 Earthworm cleans
• 40 strict handstand push-ups
• 20 Earthworm cleans
• 10 freestanding handstand push-ups

If the event appeared challenging on paper, the fact that only one team completed it underscores its exceptional difficulty. Peak 360 CrossFit emerged as the sole team to finish, doing so precisely as the time cap buzzer sounded.

In addition, Raw Iron CrossFit Mayhem Thunder took second place, falling just 13 repetitions short of completion. While this might seem underwhelming in other contexts, their performance was impressive given the event’s demands. Lastly, CrossFit Invictus, completing five fewer reps than Raw Iron, secured third place.

• Peak 360 CrossFit — Cap
• Raw Iron CrossFit Mayhem Thunder — Cap+13

3 Amigos

The final event on the third day for Teams was ‘3 Amigos,’ demanding precise synchronization among participants. Moreover, Teams tackled exercises like wall-ball shots and box jump-overs. Consequently, this workout tested coordination, a fundamental element in CrossFit’s Team division.

As a result, ‘3 Amigos’ highlighted the importance of teamwork. Furthermore, the event showcased how well teams could work together to execute complex movements. Ultimately, it proved to be a rigorous challenge for all involved.

For time:

• 120 synchro wall-ball shots (14/20 lb, 10-foot target)
• 90 synchro GHD sit-ups
• 60 synchro box jump-overs
• 30 synchro dumbbell snatches (70/100 lb)

In addition, Raw Iron CrossFit Mayhem took an early lead in the event, showcasing their strength and determination. However, despite this advantage, maintaining their position proved challenging as other teams pressed hard to overtake them. Ultimately, Raw Iron’s proficiency with dumbbells allowed them to pull ahead and secure the win.

CrossFit Invictus, alongside two other teams, vied intensely for second place. The competition was tight, with teams matching each other rep for rep on each exercise. In the end, CrossFit Invictus claimed second place, while Peak 360 CrossFit finished third.

Additionally, the second day of the Games also showcased impressive performances. Moreover, Veteran athlete Tia-Clair Toomey secured an event win, solidifying her status as a top competitor. Meanwhile, newcomer Grace Walton and established athlete Jayson Hopper celebrated their first career event victories.

Furthermore, the contrast between the two days was stark. While Day Two was filled with triumphs, the first day of the 2024 CrossFit Games is now remembered as one of the darkest in the sport’s history. Tragically, during the initial event, Lazar Đukić drowned while completing the 800-meter swim.

In response, organizers made the difficult decision to call off the remainder of the day. However, they ultimately chose to continue the competition, believing that the best way to honor Lazar Đukić’s memory was by moving forward with the Games.

Patrick Vellner started the 2024 CrossFit Games with a disappointing 33rd place in the first event but quickly turned things around by winning the second event. Also, known for his strength in chipper-style workouts, Vellner delivered another standout performance. Competing in the first heat, he knew he had to set a fast time, as later athletes would use it as a benchmark. Vellner finished in 14:14.05, a time that held up for the event win.

Additionally, Jayson Hopper came close to matching Vellner’s time, missing the top spot by less than three seconds. However, despite his best efforts and frequent glances at the clock, Hopper couldn’t find the pace needed to surpass the Canadian.

Meanwhile, Dallin Pepper and Justin Medeiros had their own close battle for third place. Moreover, Medeiros finished with a time of 14:27.76, but Pepper edged him out by just 1.26 seconds, securing third place.

Firestorm

The second workout of the day was the Firestorm, which was straightforward yet effective. Furthermore, athletes began by completing three rounds on an echo-bike. Following this, they performed burpees over a barricade. However, due to the intense lactic acid buildup in the legs from the echo bike, the burpees became significantly more difficult.

3 rounds for time of:

1. Echo-bike calories (11/15)
2. 11 burpees over barricade

Men’s Results

The Firestorm Workout lived up to its name, proving to be an exceptionally hectic challenge. Furthermore, the event demanded full power from the athletes, where every second counted. As a result, participants had to push themselves to the limit, given the workout’s relentless pace.

Jayson Hopper, known for his expertise in sprint-based events, ultimately triumphed. Moreover, this victory marked his first event win at the CrossFit Games, showcasing his impressive sprinting skills. Also, his performance highlighted his ability to excel under intense pressure.

In contrast, Dallin Pepper initially led the pack in the first two rounds. However, he struggled with fatigue during the third round. Ultimately, Pepper could not maintain his lead, he still secured second place with a time of 2:37.48 minutes.

Meanwhile, Patrick Vellner completed the workout in third place with a time of 2:41.54 minutes. However, despite not achieving the top spot, Vellner’s performance was commendable, rounding out the top three in a challenging event.

1. Jayson Hopper — 2:32.48
2. Dallin pepper — 2:37.48

Throughout all three rounds, Walton maintained the fastest pace, narrowly defeating her rivals. However, although her speed diminished slightly during the burpees, her exceptional performance on the bike was remarkable.

Bethany Flores finished in second place, trailing Grace Walton by six seconds. This strong finish earned her a substantial number of points, which positively impacted her overall standing.

In third place was Alex Gazan, who completed the workout with a time of 3:11.20 seconds. Gazan had led through the first three heats, but Walton’s impressive run ultimately pushed her down to third.

Track and Field

Although the event primarily involved running, the combination and variety of tasks made it quite distinctive. Initially, athletes tackled a 1,600-meter run, which thoroughly warmed up their legs.

Following this, the second portion of the workout commenced at the 12-minute mark. Consequently, the pace of the 1,600-meter run had to be carefully managed—not too slow to allow sufficient rest, yet not too fast to avoid exhausting energy reserves.

Subsequently, the athletes were required to complete a series of sprints. The objective was to cross the finish line in the shortest time possible, adding a final burst of intensity to the event.

For time:

• 1,600-meter run

Then, at the 12-minute mark:

• 50-yard sprint
• 50-yard bag carry (70/100 lb)
• 75-yard sprint
• 75-yard bag carry
• 100-yard sprint

8. Jayson Hopper — 1:07.46
9. Roman Khrennikov — 1:07.48
10. Aniol Ekai — 1:08.00

Women’s Results

The athletes knew they needed a strong time in the 1,600-meter run without exhausting their fast-twitch fibers, as multiple sprints followed. Tia-Clair Toomey excelled in this strategy, finishing with a time of 1:13.10. This victory marked her third event win at the 2024 CrossFit Games out of the four events held so far.

Gabriela Migala secured second place with a time of 1:13.39. She was engaged in a close race with Haley Adams throughout the event, ultimately surpassing her in the final moments. Consequently, Adams had to settle for third place with a time of 1:14.26.

In a remarkable display of tribute, the former team of Lazar Đukić, CrossFit Mayhem, topped the leaderboards in the first event with a time of 12:53.00. They dedicated their victory to Lazar, showing clear motivation to honor their former teammate at the start of the competition.

Most teams chose to wait 60 seconds after the event’s start to pay their respects to Lazar in their own way. However, CrossFit Mayhem, being directly connected to him, did not partake in this pause.

CrossFit Torian claimed second place, delivering an impressive performance with a time of 13:10 minutes. Representing Australia, they aim to secure a win for their country. Notably, Raw Iron CrossFit, the third-place finisher, also hails from Australia, underscoring the country’s strong presence in the CrossFit scene.

Team Firestorm

For their second event, the Teams confronted the Firestorm challenge. Moreover, this workout required them to alternate between pedaling on the echo bike and performing burpees over multiple rounds. Furthermore, coordination was key; both the cyclist and the athlete doing burpees aimed to finish their tasks nearly simultaneously. Consequently, this synchronization facilitated smoother transitions and reduced time lost.

In addition, the Firestorm workout tested the teams’ ability to manage pacing effectively. Moreover, the effort required for the echo bike significantly impacted the burpees that followed. Therefore, teams had to carefully balance their speed on the bike to avoid exhaustion, which would affect their performance in the burpee segment.

All for time:

F/F pair completes 3 rounds for time of:

• 11-calorie Echo bike
• 11 burpees over barricade

M/M pair completes 3 rounds for time of:

• 15-calorie Echo bike
• 11 burpees over barricade

CrossFit Oslo Kriger Rizz secured victory in the event with a time of 6:49.10, set in one of the earlier heats. Subsequent teams, aware of this benchmark, aimed to surpass it. Despite some close attempts, no team managed to eclipse the time set by the Norwegian squad.

In a dramatic contest for second place, CrossFit Mayhem and Raw Iron CrossFit competed fiercely. The outcome remained uncertain until the final moments. CrossFit Mayhem finished with a time of 6:54.70, narrowly edging out Raw Iron CrossFit, which completed the event in 6:55.77.

1. CrossFit Oslo Kriger Rizz — 6:49.10
2. CrossFit Mayhem — 6:54.70

10. CrossFit Reignited — 7:17.18

Farrington Five

The final event of day two for the Teams was both simple and demanding. Athletes began with a 1,600-meter run while connected by a rope. This constraint altered their usual running mechanics, as they could not swing their arms. Consequently, this change added an extra layer of difficulty to the run.

Following the run, the teams faced a new challenge. They had to push a Bob, which was weighted to match that of a grand piano. This task required significant strength and endurance, adding a substantial test to their physical capabilities.

Day 1 Highlights for Individuals

Lake Day

Following this, they had to dive into the cold lake water and swim 800 meters. Moreover, the challenge of this event stemmed from the transition between the leg-intensive run and the arm-focused swim. Lastly, athletes with strong swimming backgrounds had a distinct advantage, potentially earning significant points.

For time:

• 3.5-mile run
• 800-meter swim

Men’s Results

Jeffrey Adler and Ricky Garard led the field in the 3.5-mile run but struggled once they hit the water. The swim posed significant challenges, both physically and in maintaining a straight course.

Brent Fikowski, a past winner in swimming events, secured second place. Although he was close to Hoste, he never managed to close the gap. Lastly, Roman Khrennikov took third place, finishing 15 seconds behind Fikowski.
