The History of the Pig – After six-year, the Pig is back.

The Pig made its CrossFit Games debut in 2013 in Burden Run, the third event at that year’s Games.

After a 2.1-mile run, athletes had to figure out how to flip the 6-ft. long object that weighed 490 lb. for the men and 310 lb. for the women across the length of a football field—100 yards. And the event wasn’t done after they conquered that feat.

At the 2015 Games, the Pig returned heavier than before. Men and women started Event 8, Soccer Chipper, flipping 560-lb. and 395-lb. pigs, respectively, across a shorter distance of 100 ft.

After a six-year hiatus, the Pig is back.
