There's only one Open this coming year, six months on the heels of the last one meaning the rules have changed and you need to strategize in a totally new way.
CrossFit has attempted to broaden its appeal over the last five years and nowhere is that more apparent than in the growing levels of competition among mature and teen athletes.
If this is it for your functional fitness competitive output this year then give it all you've got. Use pacing and singles to finish the Open like a boss.
