The competition, held at CrossFit Reston in Herndon, VA, on February 3-4, featured both individual and pairs divisions and was open to anyone under the age of 25 currently enrolled in a degree program at a U.S. college or university. Participation was determined through an online qualifier consisting of four tests.


Though not an official CrossFit competition, the event looked similar to one, albeit with one significant difference: Athletes were put through five tests of fitness — an endurance test, a strength test, a gymnastics test, a mixed modal test, and a power test — in a 90-minute window, with 10 minutes of rest between events.
