Surprise! Friday Night CrossFit Games Event Announced And It's Awesome
After the obstacle course, the 1RM snatch, and the chipper, you'd think the athletes would get to go home and relax before coming back for the rest of the Games. You'd be wrong. Dave Castro gathered the athletes together after the Chipper to give them the news: Friday night's event would be fast, brutal, and exciting.

For time:
40 calories on the assault bike (30 for the women)
20' of moving the banger across the rails

"All you have to do is go out there and put in fucking work." The banger is from the 2012 Games where athletes had a couplet of double unders and moving the banger across the rails. This year, it's just the low banger, and it's going to be quick and aggressive.
