Situation

Green Beret Fitness (GBF) resurrects this 24 hour event for its second iteration, this time hosted by KSF Gym in beautiful Sarasota, Florida. Unlike last time, there is only one option: 24 workouts in 24 hours. On the hour. Every hour.

• Workouts will be conducted as a PAIR
• Workouts will be issued on the day. Prepare for the unknown.
• All workouts will be scalable - you do not need to be a Games Athlete to compete in this event.

This is the weekend after Thanksgiving. Bring the whole family for a Florida beach vacation while the rest of the USA enjoys winter weather. 

Mission

Every hour your pair will complete a workout issued by the GBF Directing Staff (DS). Between workouts you will have time to eat, rest, hydrate, or whatever you desire.

Execution

The first workout will begin at 1000 hrs on Saturday 27 November 2021 and the final workout will be at 0900 hrs on Sunday 28 November 2021.

In your pairs, you will complete each workout before resting and administering yourself. Your team will be able to rest in the gym between each workout. Some events will be entirely indoor based, some may be outdoor, others may be a combination of both.

Some of the workouts will scored in a competition format and winners will be announced.
