Prize Purse
Rogue Invitational is one of the biggest CrossFit competition outside the official season. That also reflects on the prize purse athletes compete for, bringing in much attention of the media and athletes themselves to do their best.
And how much money is involved for athletes competing at the 2024 Rogue Invitational?
At the time of writing, the prize purse stands at U$1,766,635.75
The prize purse can still be increased because of the way it is calculated. Let’s remember:
1. Rogue has provided a 1 million dollar cash investment.
2. $275,000 of Bitcoin purchased at $35,000 per coin. Any growth on this coin will add to the purse and will be paid out at the valuation at the time the prize purse is locked.
3. $5 per attendee ticket sold will be added to the purse.
4. 10% of registration fees for the 2024 online qualifier, “The Q”.
5. 10% of registration fees for the 2024 community event, “The C”.
6. $5.00 for every Rogue Invitational T-shirt sold.
7. $5.00 for every pair of GORUCK Ballistic Trainers sold on roguefitness.com.
Last year, the final prize purse was U$1,629,676.17.
Every participant will take a share of the prize purse at the end of the weekend depending on the placement at the end of the competition.
