We sit down with Andrew, event director of the Vitruvian Games, to pull back the curtain on what it takes to run a CrossFit competition that athletes and spectators actually enjoy. We talk recovery after the weekend, the behind-the-scenes stress, and why community support matters as much as the workouts.
• Post-event recovery and the adrenaline crash after an event weekend • Andrew’s path from Division I swimming to CrossFit competition and coaching • Choosing competitive goals while owning a gym and managing real life • How the Vitruvian Games grew from in-house comps to a major venue • Recruiting volunteers and protecting the athlete experience through strong judging • Using anonymous athlete surveys to level up year over year • Adding team divisions without creating all-day schedules for individuals • What affiliates can do to promote events and place athletes in the right divisions • Programming a balanced test of fitness with clear standards and smart logistics • Why aesthetics, floor layout, and spectator clarity change the whole feel • How a public venue like American Dream can market CrossFit to new people
