We want this to be fair for everyone and inclusive for anyone that wants...dares to play. So all outcomes, (distances, times, loads) will be divided by your body weight and then that score is weighed against the other events. There are endurance, strength, power & high rep anaerobic events, so it's going to hit both strong and weak points for everyone. Women, men, big, small, Justin, doesn't matter who you are. This is a test of how much your cardio fitness and strength match both each other and your own mass.
