Summary

A new year is upon us, but we are still waiting for a resolution on a sale of CrossFit. Is this ever going to happen? Sean, Tommy and Lauren recap the strange saga of Wade Diebner's ill-fated attempt to purchase the brand and where things might stand now. Plus, the World Fitness Project saved their best for last as they wrapped up their inaugural season in Copenhagen. Tommy gives us the first-hand view of how things went down, what the athletes thought about the three tour stops and what is in store for 2026.
