The final stage of the 2020 CrossFit Games kicks off this Friday at 8:00 AM PT. Event descriptions and other Games news is dropping at a steady pace, here’s everything you need to know right now:

Schedule and How to Watch:

    • Here’s the schedule of events and time zones.
    • All the CrossFit Games stage two events are streaming live for free and there are multiple Internet platforms hosting the stream. Plus, CBS Sports will air a live, two-hour block of Games coverage on Saturday from 12:00-2:00 PT. CBS Sports will also televise two 30-minutes shows leading up to the Games as well as a two-hour documentary later this fall.

Event News:

    • Here is everything we know about the first events of the 2020 CrossFit Games final stage:
      • Event 1: 2007 Reload
      • Event 2: Corn Sack Sprint.
      • Event 3: The CrossFit Total. According to Dave Castro’s Instagram story, it looks like this event will take place outside, similar to 2018.
      • Event 4: Handstand walk event. We don’t have the details, but Dave Castro posted this teaser photo of Kristi Eramo O’Connell handstand walking at the Morgan Hill Soccer Complex.
      • Event 5: Trail Run. We don’t have the details, but Dave Castro posted this teaser photo of the trail run. This appears to be the fifth and final scored event on day one.
      • Event 6: Toes-to-Bar/Lunge. Here’s Adrian Bozman’s breakdown and analysis of the testing of this workout.
      • Event 7: Snatch Speed Triple. Listen in on Adrian Bozman’s thoughts about the programming for this event.
      • Event 8: Bike Repeater
      • Final Event – “Atalanta”: Castro revealed the name of the final event saying it “will be the most difficult final of any Games, if not the most difficult event, to date.” In Greek mythology, Atalanta was a virgin hunter and follower of Artemis, goddess of the hunt.
    • We know that there are ten time blocks on the schedule, but it’s possible that multiple scored events will be programmed inside the same block.

Scoring Notes:

    • There are a couple of key points to take note of for the 2020 CrossFit Games stage two scoring.
      • Each event in the finals will have a point value assigned to it and the final five athletes in each division will have their point totals from stage one reset to 0.
      • For each event in the finals, the scores will be awarded as follows: first place — 100 points, second place — 75 points; third place — 55 points; fourth place — 35 points; fifth place — 15/0 points.
      • Importantly, according to the CrossFit Games scoring page: “For Stage 2, last place (fifth place) can earn 15 points or zero points. If it is determined that an athlete is no longer providing their best effort to complete an event, the competition team may award them zero points for their last-place finish rather than 15.” This point is significant because if an athlete is clearly having a bad event and in the back of the pack with no chance to improve, they will have to maintain a high level of intensity or potentially lose even more points based on a judges’ ruling.
      • Get all the details on the 2020 CrossFit Games leaderboard.

Athlete News and Updates:

    • VIDEO: Beating Tia: What Katrin, Brooke and Kari Have to Do.
    • The CrossFit Games YouTube channel has posted preview videos highlighting each of the final five athletes in the men’s and women’s divisions.
    • The 2020 CrossFit Games Finals Demo Team will be Saxon Panchik, Chandler Smith and Danielle Brandon.
    • According to Dave Castro’s Instagram stories, all of the athletes will have their own trailer/lockerroom space on-site at the Morgan Hill facility.

Everything Else:

    • Be careful as you prepare to watch the Games livestream. According to a CrossFit subreddit thread, there are multiple bootleg or fraudulent streams that could potentially compromise any information users provide. Here is our official guide to Games coverage.
    • CrossFit LLC unveiled a newly revamped CrossFit.com website on Monday
    • CrossFit announced yesterday on Twitter that “yes, there will be a 2020 Games documentary” and the Buttery Bros, Heber Cannon and Marston Sawyers, are producing it.
