In this podcast I’m going to discuss the CrossFit Games order of events, and why I think that it shouldn’t matter.
There’s a lot of controversy over the 2019 CrossFit Games order of events, and why there are a number of athletes that should have made it into the top 10. The athletes and talking heads are saying that the programing was bad because they needed to have the heavy events earlier in the weekend.
What I think about the order of events
My thoughts are that if you are going to be in the top 10 of the CrossFit Games, you should be able to be in the top 10 at any event. And if the athletes that didn’t make the top 10 wouldn’t have had really poor showings… they would have made the top 10.
