2024 Rogue Invitational

The 2024 Rogue Invitational was a sporting event organized by Rogue Fitness that featured competitions in the sport of CrossFit, strongman, and strongwoman. It was held at P&J Live in Aberdeen, Scotland from 8 to 10 November 2024, the first time the event was held outside the United States. The winners of the CrossFit competitions were Jeffrey Adler for the men and Tia-Clair Toomey for the women, while Mitchell Hooper and Inez Carrasquillo were the respective winners of the strongman and strongwoman competitions.

This Rogue Invitational featured its sixth CrossFit competition, 4th strongman, and its first strongwoman competition. 20 men and 20 women competed in the CrossFit divisions, and 10 men and 10 women competed in the strongman and strongwoman competitions. Rogue provided a prize purse of a million in cash and an investment of $275,000 of Bitcoin, with additional money from ticket and apparel sales going into the prize pot. The prize purse reached over $1.8 million, with the winners of the crossfit competitions receiving $274,000 with the Strongman and Strongwoman winners receiving around $122,000. The prize purse for strongwoman is the biggest in the history of the sport.

Competitiors

This year, Rogue introduced a new ranking system based on the performance of athletes over a 5-year period, but weighted in favor of more recent competitions, such as the Open, Quarterfinals, CrossFit Games and Rogue Invitational. It includes an "Exceptions Points Table" to award points for those who missed a competition for any specific reason. The top 10 athletes in this system were invited to the Invitational, with five athletes from the Q online qualifiers, and five more at the discretion of Rogue.

Ten strongmen and ten strongwomen are invited.
