Strength In Depth – London 2019
CrossFit® Strength in Depth is an individual and team competition, which will be held in London over the 23-24 February 2019.
The winning male, female and team will be invited to the Reebok CrossFit® Games in Madison, Wisconsin, USA.
Bulletproofbodies are proud to be part of the Athlete Services Team who will be looking after all Athletes keeping them injury free for the entire competition.
Many of this team are the same from Meridian Regionals, so they are in good hands.
The Final will take place from Saturday 23 February to Sunday 24 February 2019, hosted at the ExCeL London. Athlete registration will take place on Friday 22 February from midday – 17:00pm.
The 80 males, females and 70 Teams will be split into two categories – Elite and Rxd.
The programming and schedule will differ between the Elite and Rxd competition. This allows more competitors to take part at the final.
Ok so this new format is and has been a little confusing. Here’s a short version of what could happen once the winner of CrossFit® SiD 2019 has been crowned.
The winner of SiD 2019 takes home the title and secures an invitation to The CrossFit® Games 2019.
If they then go on to be crowned the Fittest in their country, or place Top 20 worldwide, at the end of The 2019 Open, their invitation to The Games via SiD is passed to the athlete who finished 2nd.
If the 2nd place athlete is also crowned the Fittest in their country, or places Top 20 in The Open, the invite passes to 3rd place, and so on and so forth.
Given the amount of countries represented amongst the athletes joining us next month, it could be possible to finish 3rd, 5th,7th at a Sanctioned event and still get that illusive invite.
This should hopefully make for an even better weekend of competition for everyone involved!
