_Open Summary The Open was the first of its kind, a truly open competition. Anyone, anywhere could compete. The 2011 Reebok CrossFit Games season began with the first ever Open competition. Athletes worldwide competed in six workouts over six weeks, posting their scores in real time and online. Anyone could throw their hat in the ring to compete for a position among the fittest athletes in the world. In all, more than 26,000 athletes competed in the Open, making it one of the largest sporting events in history. Competitors had two options to validate their performances. They could workout at a local affiliate, where they would be judged in person, or they could submit video evidence of their performance to the entire community. While there were some truly awesome video submissions, surprisingly, 97% of the competitors chose to validate at an affiliate, demonstrating the global reach of the CrossFit movement. Provided that each workout was completed and score submitted prior to the close of each week, there was no limit to the number of attempts. Some chose to lurk in the shadows, banking it all on a single last minute effort. Others did the workouts three or more times, risking burnout to better their position with each attempt. _Watch a brief history of the CrossFit Games as presented by Reebok WOD "Nate" AMRAP in 20 mins of: 2 muscle-ups 4 HSPU 8 KB swings, 2 pood | AuthorsJon and Travis Hopkins ArchivesMay 2012 CategoriesAll |
