WHAT IS THE INTRAMURAL OPEN? [Click me for all the details]
The Intramural Open is an in-house friendly competition that coincides with the official CrossFit Open each year.
Annually, there is a worldwide event known as the CrossFit Open which athletes all over compete in at a variety of levels. Three workouts are posted during three consecutive weeks of February / March that CrossFit gyms across the world will all be participating in! These workouts are shared each Thursday evening, and athletes have until the following Monday to complete the workout and post their scores. So that’s a light description of the CrossFit Open….but the Intramural Open is a little different…
Myriad will program each of the CrossFit Open workouts on the following Fridays: February 27th, March 6th, and March 13th. These workouts will be titled 26.1, 26.2 and 26.3 respectively. Coming to class these days is just one way to participate in the Intramural Open.
Every CrossFit Member will be drafted to a Team led by a Team Captain. Throughout the weeks of the Open, your Team will have a variety of ways to participate and earn points for your Team. It is up to you how much you choose to participate, but at the very least, by attending class on the Fridays listed above, you automatically earn points for your Team!
There will be a final fun workout on Saturday, March 21st to close out the Intramural Open, known as 26.FUN! Teams will compete against one another in a series of silly workouts — think Team games, partner participation, etc. At the end of the day, we tally up final points and announce the overall winner for the Intramural Open.
The goal for the Intramural Open is to have a 4-week competition and opportunity to build community, challenge yourself in workouts, give back to charity, and add some extra fun to your regular fitness routine!
