About This Competition

The Desert City Classic returns November 7–9, 2025, taking over the Sun Devil Fitness Complex in Tempe, AZ for three unforgettable days of competition, intensity, and desert heat.

This event is more than just another weekend throwdown — it’s one of the Southwest’s most anticipated tests of strength, grit, and endurance, bringing together a fierce lineup of athletes from across the country. From national podium contenders to up-and-coming talents, the Classic showcases the full spectrum of competitive fitness.

Athletes will battle it out in Elite, RX, Intermediate, and Masters Individual divisions, as well as RX, Intermediate, Masters, and Community Team divisions. Community Teams are welcome to register without qualifying — a perfect route for those looking to experience the Classic without the pressure of leaderboard placement.

If you've earned your spot through the Online Qualifier, you're already on the grid. For those who received a direct invite, it's because your past performances made it impossible to ignore. Either way, once you're here, it's time to show up and throw down. The desert awaits.
