Patrick Vellner Wins 2023 Rogue Invitational

October 29, 2023 by Phil Blechman

The 2023 Rogue Invitational is over. Laura Horvath emerged victorious over Tia-Clair Toomey-Orr in the final event to take the overall win for the Individual Women. For the Individual Men, Patrick Vellner held a 65-point lead over reigning Fittest Man on Earth® Jeffrey Adler heading into the last event. That was plenty of breathing room, and Patrick Vellner is the 2023 Rogue Invitational champion.

This is Vellner’s second Rogue Invitational title. His first was won in 2020. Below are the full results for the Individual Men’s division at the 2023 Rogue Invitational:

Patrick Vellner’s 2023 Rogue Invitational Performance

  • Event One “Texas Heavy” — 13th place
  • Event Two “Seat at the Bar” — Second place
  • Event Three “The Circus” — Third place
  • Event Four “10th Inning” —  Fourth place
  • Event Five “The Duel III” — Third place
  • Event Six “Max Deadlift” — Third place
  • Event Seven “Hulk Hands” — Ninth place
  • Event Eight “Big Cat”— 10th place
  • Event Nine — 10th place

Adler was heard telling Jayson Hopper after the final event concluded, “Something I’m learning this year: it’s never over ’til it’s over.” While Adler couldn’t overcome the 90-point deficit Vellner put between them, Adler closed the gap by a significant margin. Ultimately, Vellner’s consistency toward the top of most events was the difference maker.

Vellner never won an event but had four finishes in the top three. Compared to Adler, they both spent all but one event each in the top 10. However, Vellner landed in the top three on four occasions, and Adler only did so in his two event wins. While event wins can certainly buffer a point total, consistency at the top over a long competition spanning four days is even more important.
