Not for nothing but as a right wing nut job I'm loath to admit that in a sports competition it's super cool if everyone "wins" and goes home with a trophy. However, in this case I think I have to make an exception. See the video of the 2010 US Championships for proof...

"It's not just one workout," Przeplasko said, explaining the reason behind pole dancing's rise. "When you pole dance, you combine jogging, weightlifting, and dancing all together."
Performers displayed that athleticism at the third annual International Pole Dancing Championships held in Tokyo Thursday.
