WHAT’S THE CF CIRCUS, YOU ASK?

IOWA’S PREMIER FUNCTIONAL FITNESS COMPETITION SINCE 2013.

A DECADE OF THE CF CIRCUS. A decade of competition and camaraderie. A decade of freak-show fitness. A decade of sweat and smiles. This is it. THE 10TH ANNUAL CF CIRCUS.

Amazing events, the highest quality athlete experience, improved live leaderboard/scoring, kickass prizes as always and more!  

The CF Circus has been Iowa's premier functional fitness competition since 2013, providing an opportunity for athletes of all ages and abilities to experience a fun weekend of competition and camaraderie. Over the years, our team format has varied from 2-4 athletes, same-gender and coed…but our programming and participation numbers have never wavered. The CF Circus brings in over 500 athletes annually, nearly 2000 spectators, and a ton of great vendors and sponsors. Between our annual winter CF Circus, and a couple fun summer events, 2023 will be our 13th major competitive events and our 10th Annual CF Circus - to date, we’ve given out nearly $100,000 in cash, prize packages totaling a value over $120,000, and even our volunteers have walked away with great raffle items and giveaways.
