CrossFit Open 24.2 Announcement TOMORROW!!!

Coach Austin, CF-L3, CrossFit Weightlifting Certified • Mar 06, 2024

24.1 is officially done. Scores have been submitted, the leaderboard is getting its final score validations and now it’s time to turn our attention to tomorrow’s announcement of 24.2!

24.1 Friday Night Lights had a good turnout, let's see if we can beat it this Friday for 24.2!

TDC (The Dave Castro for those who don’t know) used to be the director of the CrossFit Games way back in the day. Some things happened and now that role has shifted over to Adrian Bozman. Castro is still very much involved in the CrossFit Games, the Open and all the other components surrounding the competitive season just to a lesser degree.

Throughout the evolutions of the CrossFit Open there has always been a sense of mystery. We don’t know what the workout is going to be until the announcement. We can take guesses but it really is just that, a guess! We have no real idea what could be headed our way.

To add to the mystery, TDC has always given us some very obscure “hints” as to what the workout will be. Sometimes after the workout has been announced, people will make connections between his “hint” and the workout. Most of the time, they don’t make sense. If we look at 24.1, nobody has a clue what the connection was. According to Castro the hint was “very clear” but ask anybody else and there still seems to be confusion. 24.2 doesn’t seem to be any different.

And that is a good thing! If we actually knew what the workout was ahead of the announcement that would take the mystery out of it. The mystery is part of what makes the Open the Open.

With that said, it is always fun to try and theory-craft what the hint means and even more so to see what people think he means. Go check out Castro’s IG and go to the comment section and I promise you you will get some good laughs. You will also see some legitimate guesses (that are usually wrong) but still solid guesses nonetheless.


Anybody have any guesses on what this could possibly mean?


For those of you who want to know what the workout is as soon as possible the CrossFit Games will be livestreaming the announcement on Youtube. You can also find plenty of CrossFit Content Creators re-broadcasting it live if you prefer to watch it that way. Whatever the case is, if you want to watch the announcement then tomorrow at 2pm CT is when it goes down.


That’s all I have for you wonderful individuals! Let’s get ready for another banger of a workout in 24.2 and let’s get all of everybody down to Evansville CrossFit on Friday Night to take part in Friday Night Lights Pt.2!

Nice work showing up and showing out last Friday for Friday Night Lights! The bars were set, the monitors were turned on and the ropes were flying! You all should be proud of what you did last week. That workout was no joke and being able to stick to it for 20:00 is very impressive!

Friday Night Lights begins TONIGHT! I know I have been hyping it up and I think it’s fair why! It is currently 11:51 am as I write this and we already have had a handful of athletes take their shot at CrossFit Open Workout 24.1 and we have seen some AMAZING things! Before we get into all the doo-dads of 24.1 there are some housekeeping things I need to take care of.

Some things are inevitable and there’s nothing we can do to avoid it, eventually time does catch up to us but there are things we can do to push back and delay the onset of those things as much as possible. This can range from cardiovascular disease to muscle and bone density losses or even mental health decline, to name a few.

The time is drawing nearer by the second! If you haven’t been paying much attention to the latest hype, the Open is *ALMOST* hare, and with it comes Friday Night Lights! I’m sure you don’t want to hear me ramble on about why the Open is important and that you should do it. BUT I will do a little bit of rambling here again.

On that day, we will be hosting the EC Gauntlet. The EC Gauntlet is going to be a local competition open to teams of males and females from as far as they want to travel to partake in this event.

First, what is FNLs? FNLs is a in-house competition-adjacent event.I say competition-adjacent because it will be in the format of a competition. There will be groups of athletes performing the WOD at specific times with judges scoring their workouts and enforcing movement standards. I say adjacent because there aren’t going to be “winners” or “losers” and there aren’t going to be multiple workouts that single day to establish who is the “fittest”. It’s a competition because each athlete will perform the WOD in a certain category (Rx, Scaled, Foundations, Masters, etc.). And it’s adjacent because it is just another WOD. FNLs is meant to bring the energy that a competition brings into the affiliate and to give athletes who haven’t experienced the thrill of a real competition a taste of what it feels like. It pushes people in ways that are extremely difficult to replicate in the day-to-day WOD that we perform in class all the time. Not only those things but it also gives us a chance to watch and cheer on our friends while they workout from start to finish and then gives them a chance to do the same for us. It gives us as an affiliate to do something we don’t normally do and to try and make it something fun, something that we will talk about for the rest of the year and give us something to look forward to next year.

Recently, I covered Defining World Class Fitness and Its Application . Today I will dive into more specific programming methods. Specifically Strength + MetCon and why it isn’t “good enough.”

Done right, it can be one of the most exciting things to ever happen within a CrossFit Box.
