The Rogue Invitational’s online qualifier, known as ‘The Q’, doesn’t officially start until Friday morning, but the workouts have just been released. The Q will have four workouts, but five scores as Workout 1 is a two-parter.
Workout details will be released at 9am Eastern on Friday, August 25, along with scorecards. Athletes competing will have until Monday, August 28 at 8pm Eastern to submit their scores.
The top 5 men and women in The Q will be guaranteed an invite to the Rogue Invitational in Austin, Texas, in October. Additionally, 1st place in the men’s and women’s qualifier will receive a custom Rogue Fitness barbell.
The top 15 men and women from this year’s CrossFit Games will receive an automatic invite to the compete at the Rogue Invitational along with the 5 who qualify via The Q. Last year, Rogue had to backfill several Games athletes with those outside the top 15 at the Games and an additional athlete from The Q in order to fill out the 20 athlete roster.
To register, head over to the Rogue Invitational website. The cost is $25 to register, or $45 if you want to also get the official Rogue “Q” t-shirt.
