About the Event

This is not your typical CrossFit style competition consisting of a few met-cons scattered throughout the day. Death-Con consists of ONE grueling met-con lasting anywhere from 4-6 hours. Expect to be met with a range of challenges that will test your physical capacities, mental fortitude, and ability to work and function as a team. All aspects of fitness will be used – runs, carries, lifts, body weight movements, cardio machines, odd objects, etc. This is about how much work your team can do, and how long you can sustain it.

All fitness levels are welcome as there are no high level CrossFit movements (handstand pushups, muscle ups, heavy lifts, etc) and there are no ability divisions (Rx, scaled, etc). Everyone does the same workout.

Whether you’re a seasoned athlete or just looking to have some fun, there’s something for everyone at Deathcon. From intense workouts to team challenges, you’ll push yourself and walk away feeling accomplished.
