Week two of the 2025 CrossFit Open kicks off with the live announcement of workout 25.2 on Thursday, March 6, on the official CrossFit YouTube channel. And we’ve got all the details you need to know heading into the event.
The details: The second live Open announcement represents the middle of the 2025 CrossFit Open; annually, the Open kicks off the competitive season, and this year, it’s likely to look different from any in CrossFit’s history. The live announcements started during the 2013 season and grew in size and popularity through 2018. CrossFit elected not to host live Open announcements during the 2019 and 2020 seasons but returned to host them in 2021.
- 25.2 will take place in Peoria, AZ, at CrossFit Incendia.
- The Third Fittest Woman in 2024, Emily Rolfe, will take on 2023 Games athlete Sydney Wells, twin sister to Games legend Brooke Wells.
- The 25.3 announcement will take place at CrossFit Spur in Glenmont, NY, not far from the new CrossFit Games home of Albany, NY, in Nashville, TN, on March 14.
The final live announcement will feature a head-to-head-to-head battle between the first-, second-, and fourth-place finishers at the 2024 Games on the men’s side: James Sprague, Dallin Pepper, and Jayson Hopper.
