2024 Championship Scoring
The Donor Games Championship is a points-based event; the competitor with the most points in their category wins.
This year, the total score for each competitor will be a combination of their scores from the three events, with a maximum of 10 points for each event. In the event of a tie in any individual event, the tied competitors will receive the same score.
For each event, the point breakdown is as follows:
- 1st – 10 points
- 2nd – 9 points
- 3rd – 8 points
- 4th – 7 points
- Etc.
In the event of a total score tie in any competitor category, the tiebreaker will be 21 calories on an Echo Bike for time.
Burn & Bench Scoring (10-minute time cap)
The event will consist of two elements: a 1/2-mile run and a 1-rep-max bench press. After the run, the athlete will immediately move to their individual bench press station and establish their 1-rep max with whatever remaining time is available. Placement is based on the heaviest weight lifted in each category.
The Pike Scoring (10-minute time cap)
Competitors will follow a 21-15-9 rep scheme of toes to bar and Echo bike (measured in calories). The workout is complete once the athlete has completed all necessary reps or the 10-minute time cap has run out. Placement is based on the fastest time in each category.
Heavy Murph Scoring (25-minute time cap)
The Heavy Murph workout is conducted on a 25-minute time clock, during which competitors must perform as many reps as possible of:
- 10 strict pull-ups
- 20 shoulder presses (50 pounds for men; 30 pounds for women)
- 30 split squats
- 40 sit-ups
Placement is based on the total number of reps completed in each category.
