Krampus 2025 is near!

11/25/2025

0 Comments

 
The Annual Krampus Competition!  The competition starts on Monday Dec 1st and runs until close of business on Dec 31st (most likely noon.)  We will keep the scores running through out the competition and you can do the workouts as many times as you wish and in any order.  Only your best score in each workout counts.  First place in one workout = 1 pt, 2nd = 2 pts.  Who ever has the lowest number of points on New Year's eve wins!  I'll try to have final results posted on New Year's day.

Prizes for 1st and 2nd place men's and women's

We are trying to make the workout accessible for everyone.  If there is something you are unable to do, we will try our best to adjust the standards to keep it fair to all competitors.
