01 — The Brief
This isn't
another
workout.
It's your chance to step into the tank. Whether you're hunting the top spot on the leaderboard or simply challenging yourself alongside your training partner — there's a place for you.
Push hard. Dig deep. Walk away knowing you gave it everything. This is an exclusive Higher State Fitness event: no outside competitors, no judges, no pressure from anyone except the person staring back at you in the mirror.

1Very long Saturday
Not continuous — you'll have time to recover between workouts. Expect a morning of teamwork, grit, laughs, and a few moments that will test you.
02 — Last Time Out
Thirty-three
teams went in
The first Shark Tank ran in September 2026. Sixty-six athletes, four events, one very long Saturday — sandbags, an open-road run, an erg medley and a barbell that didn't care how tired you were.
Every placing from that day is still on record, right down to the individual run splits.
