Zach Moore is in.

We are 30 days away from the announcement of 15.1. For those of you looking like a deer in headlights when some mentions “The Open,” it’s time to get in the know.

From the CrossFit Games HQ:

The 2015 Reebok CrossFit Games season begins with the online Open. Anyone can sign up to compete in five workouts over five weeks and post their scores online. Last year, the Open reached more than 209,000 athletes from around the world. (Including dozens of CFSQ Members)

You can either perform the Open workout at a participating CrossFit affiliate (that’s us!) where you will be judged in person, or you can film your full performance and upload it to YouTube or another video-sharing site. The video will be displayed alongside your score so other CrossFit athletes can be your judge (this is for the at home athlete).

The 2015 Open begins on Thursday, Feb. 26. That evening, tune into the live Open announcement show streamed to Games.CrossFit.com. Director of the Games Dave Castro will announce Open Workout 15.1 and moments later top Games athletes will complete that workout going head to head. (Seriously. Do this. It’s pretty exciting and everyone will take to social media right then throwing in their two cents and it’s CFSQ water cooler talk the next day.)

Athletes will submit their scores throughout the weekend. The hard deadline for score submissions is 5 p.m. PT on Monday, March 2. Don’t be late! (Deadline rules as they relate to this gym will be laid out in a few weeks.)

15.1: Feb. 26 -March 2
15.2: March 5-9
15.3: March 12-16
15.4: March 19-23
15.5: March 26-30

A scaled option of the Open workout will be released each week of the Open. With reduced loading or less challenging movements, the scaled option will be designed to make the Open even more accessible.
