It's officially time for the 2026 CrossFit Open! As Coach Elliott likes to say, “The hay is in the barn!” So now you can focus on proper fuel, hydration, and rest in the days leading up to 26.1.
Coach Jacqui has also provided some tips on how to set yourself up for success on the day of the workout:
Within 1 hour of the workout, prioritize consuming easy-to-digest carbs (e.g. apple sauce, baby food pouch, fruit smoothie...etc) If possible, 1-2 hours before the workout, eat easy to digest carbs + protein (e.g. nonfat Greek yogurt + berries, protein shake + fruit). This will give you plenty of energy to power through 26.1!
