About The Heraean Games

In the 6th Century BC The Heraean Games were established as the first official all women’s athletic competition. The event was held every four years in the stadium of Olympia in honor of the Goddess Hera.

Spartan Women in particular were encouraged to train in the same athletic events as men and usually dominated at the Heraean Games as a result.  These women played a significant role in Spartan history and were often viewed as warriors themselves.

Over 2000 years later, Fashletics and South Florida CrossFit Endurance proudly bring you the return of The Heraean Games to honor the spirit of an all female competition.

Ladies… are you ready to make history… again?
