The CrossFit Games have been held annually in
Aromas, California since 2007. CrossFit says the competition is now a laboratory for human performance, with the male and female champions having plausible claims to being the fittest people in the world. The events are announced only a few days or hours in advance. One hundred and fifty athletes, chosen in regional qualifiers from around the world, competed in eight workouts over two days in July, 2009. In 2010, additional qualifiers will held in the form of preliminary "sectional" competitions and one of the regional qualifiers will be held at the
Arnold Classic.
