2007 CrossFit Games: The Hopper

In 2007, the inaugural CrossFit Games took place on a dusty ranch in Aromas, California. A small group of around 70 athletes gathered for a weekend of competition and camaraderie, and when it was over, the first-ever Fittest Man and Woman on Earth were crowned.

Core to CrossFit's methodology is the idea that the fittest athletes would be able to handle any and every task, so the first event of the 2007 CrossFit Games was chosen randomly. Colored balls labeled with movements were pulled from a hopper. A workout was created on the spot, and the assembled athletes were soon tested by a 1,000-meter row followed by five rounds of 25 pull-ups and seven push jerks. Canadian Brett Marshall won the event for the men, while American Jolie Gentry took the win for the women with times of 13:07 and 16:22, respectively.
