The final workout of the 2026 CrossFit Open will be announced live from Miami Beach, Florida, at Wodapalooza. With that, Danielle Brandon, Arielle Loewen and Olivia Kerstetter will duke it out following the workout reveal.
The 26.3 live announcement will be Thursday, March 12 at 3pm Eastern Time.
All athletes in all divisions will end up taking on 26.3 as part of their competition that weekend in Miami Beach.
Loewen and Brandon will be in Miami Beach for more than the live announcement. Loewen will be go straight from the Open live announcement into the individual elite competition on Thursday and Friday. It is unclear how Loewen will manage the live announcement versus completing the workout as part of the competition.
