FBI launches ‘fittest agent’ competition for field offices


The Federal Bureau of Investigation is planning a new internal competition to determine the “fittest agents” across its nationwide field offices, the bureau confirmed to the Washington Examiner.

The event will take place at the FBI Academy in Quantico, Virginia, in early July and will include participants from all 56 field offices, according to an FBI spokesperson.

“Personal fitness is key for FBI employees, and this initiative provides a new and creative team-building experience at the FBI’s Training Academy,” an FBI spokesperson told the Washington Examiner.

Under the program, each field office is being encouraged to nominate one male and one female special agent to compete in a two-day challenge. The event will combine both physical and mental drills designed to test overall fitness, endurance, and problem-solving abilities under pressure.
