The 4.40 challenge

4.40 was more than a fitness challenge. It was our way of rallying the Mayhem community at the start of the year.

Launched as a 40-day New Year’s challenge, the goal was simple: help people build momentum through consistency. As Marketing Director, I led the concept, rollout, and execution across content, email, and the in-app experience. The format was straightforward. Daily workouts. Quick prompts tied to Mayhem’s four pillars: Faith, Family, Fitness, and Service. A leaderboard. A $10,000 prize. And a clear message to the community to show up every day and do the work.

RESULTS:

  • Generated $40,000 in monthly recurring revenue

  • 1,500 new sign-ups

  • Peaked at 2,600 active trials during the challenge

  • Maintained an 8% churn rate, down 7 percent year over year

  • 45% average email open rate

  • Became the biggest challenge we’ve ever launched

The Mayhem classic

The 2025 Mayhem Classic brought back one of CrossFit’s most respected in-person competitions. Held at CrossFit Mayhem HQ in Cookeville, TN, this elite-level event hosted 40 top athletes over two days and acted as a direct qualifier for the CrossFit Games.

As Marketing Director, I led everything from content and digital strategy to partnerships and on-site execution. We kicked things off with We’re So Back, a launch campaign that sparked viral momentum and reminded people of what makes CrossFit so special. From there, we rolled out The Vault, a scripted series where Rich Froning looked back on his most iconic CrossFit memories. Each episode teased events and movements before they were officially announced, building hype week by week and keeping the community locked in.

RESULTS:

  • 7.2 million impressions

  • 1 million accounts reached

  • 202,000 content interactions

  • 7.96% engagement rate during event weekend

  • Email open rates as high as 59%

  • 442,000 total YouTube views across live broadcasts

  • Dozens of branded reels, stories, and in-event activations delivered
