HERD FEST 2025 — Inagural Recap

HERD FEST 2025 marked the first chapter of what is now officially the Northeast’s premier year-end fitness celebration — a one-day spectacle built to showcase the strength, grit, and unity of athletes across every division.

On Saturday, November 22, 2025, the historic Morristown National Guard Armory transformed into an electric arena filled with nonstop energy, roaring crowds, and a community that showed up in full force.

📊 256 athletes took the floor.

👥 Nearly 1,000 unique attendees flowed through the venue throughout the day.

🔥 And together, they created an atmosphere you could feel from the first heat to the final podium ceremony.

Across 4 epic tests, athletes battled for leaderboard glory and a $15,000+ cash prize pool, delivering performances that set the tone for what HERD FEST will become for years to come.

For those watching from home, our fully in-house produced professional livestream broadcast live on The Sevan Podcast and The HERD ATHLETICS Channel, bringing the action to the fitness community worldwide.

HERD FEST’s inaugural year was more than a competition —

It was a celebration of the Northeast.

A showcase of community.

A year-end finale that set the standard for what’s next.

Thank you to every athlete, every judge, every volunteer, every partner, and every supporter who made this day unforgettable.

This was the beginning of a new tradition — and 2026 starts now.

Mark your calendar. Bring your crew. We’ll see you next year.
