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.

Under New Ownership: Three Major Takeaways From CrossFit Inc.’s Big Day

Castro Addresses Games Questions, Teases Regionals and Open Changes

During his routine Instagram live on Thursday, Dave Castro announced several potential adjustments to the CrossFit Games season and addressed questions surrounding the summer event. The new updates come the day after news broke of the sale of CrossFit, Inc. to Eric Roza.

Key Takeaways:

The Open: Castro said that there will be no Open announcements, at least he will no longer be announcing them.
His role with CrossFit: “I’m still here.”
When the 2020 Games will happen: “Maybe September.” He would later confirm that September 14-20 would be the earliest potential date for the Games in an afternoon tweet following a call with qualifying athletes.
If Regionals would return: “I don’t know, maybe, maybe not. Lots of decisions to make.”
Athlete boycott: Castro stated that all athletes who publicly declined their Games invitation will get an opportunity to compete if they change their mind.
On the Games backfill process: Castro addressed that due to travel restrictions that he would more than likely have to fill some spots through backfills. He expressed his confidence in the backfill athletes and that they would be up for the challenge to compete at the Games.

Update on the CFHQ situation re: Greg Glassman’s comments:

As we stated before we wholeheartedly disagree with and are heartbroken by Coach Glassman’s recent Twitter post and the fundamental lack of respect, awareness, leadership, judgment, and racial insensitivity that he has shown through making light of George Floyd’s murder. It was inflammatory, inexcusable and incomprehensible and needlessly involved over 15,000 gyms, members, employees and small business owners around the world. As a result things have been happening fast, more so in the age of social media decision making.

That said before we disaffiliate we are waiting to see if the response from the community will lead to him stepping aside from CFHQ in some way. We recognize that change will not happen in 1-2 days. If no meaningful change happens then we would look to disaffiliate and not renew our affiliate agreement when it expires and rename our gym. To us meaningful change isn’t a social media apology (which he posted) but rather a fundamental change in leadership at the top. Simply put, he should not be the CEO making day to day decisions and guiding HQ anymore. He is not CrossFit. Yes, he created the methodology. Yes, he created the model by which we operate our gym. However, WE are CrossFit. The whole worldwide affiliate community is CrossFit. So much good has been created from that. So many gyms around the world bringing diverse people together to improve their health (both physical and mental) and improve their lives. We aren’t ready to give up on that. We want to be part of the change from within CrossFit. I can think of several people within HQ and our broader community that are incredible people and are also minorities than can right the ship and be put in positions of greater influence and responsibility. I want to see that change. Walking away means not being a part of it.

We built this gym over 11 plus years starting from our garage. I began CrossFit in 2006 and Michelle followed quickly after. We helped start another affiliate in Steilacoom & Dupont, WA before moving to Snoqualmie to start all over again. During these years it has changed our lives, our marriage, and our friends and family for the better. From competing to coaching we have literally poured countless hours, sweat, some blood, some tears, and many laughs into this community and this gym identity. It means something to our family and to me that I can’t really describe. It honestly breaks both of our hearts to even consider disaffiliating. I know our gym won’t be permanent, but I want it to be lasting. I want it to mean something to us when we look back and say “we gave it a Hell of a run” over a nice pour of whiskey. I want others to think of it with a smile, and not think of it with being dragged down because of the careless actions of someone who has never even stepped foot in our gym. I want it to be “SnoRidge CrossFit”. Not SnoRidge Club of Constantly Varied Functional Fitness done at High Intensity (or Moderate Intensity). Many of you have said “it’s not the name” and I get that. But to us it still kind of is and always will be.

If we aren’t satisfied with the direction CFHQ takes then know that we are looking at the impact of rebranding and renaming and all of the work/steps/costs that incurs. It is a lot and has many ramifications. While you may not hear about it from us know that we will be acting behind the scenes while our current affiliate agreement is in place. If CFHQ makes changes that we are okay with we ask for your continued support and understanding and know where are hearts are, what we believe in and why we would still fly the CrossFit banner.

Fortunate and grateful to participate in a great Zoom meeting this morning for 1.5 hours with Coach Glassman and CFHQ along with 10 other affiliates from around the world. We discussed the pandemic, it’s impact on each of our affiliates, what CrossFit is doing, what different governments and states are doing, and how we will come out of this. We also got to share feedback, stories, and ask a ton of questions. Love this community! #strengthinnumbers
