It started out a little rainy but who are we to complain with men and women risk their lives for days like today in much worse situations.

Pledge of Allegiance

Move to shelter to warm up and complete the first of two Hero WODS. Unfortunately we had no Veterans in attendance. A disclaimer was given about giving it your all because there are men and women who gave their lives for us.

Hero WOD one is the “PAZ” – Cash in with a 1,000 meter run then go into 22 minutes of AMRAP of 23 squats, 7 burpees and 14 push-ups. Cash out with another 1,000 meter run. During the work we kept a look out for FIA as we were on their turf. Two showed so we moved to finish.

With about 20 minutes left we moseyed to the Fighting Yank to attempt the “Donald L. Wheeler Jr.” hero WOD – 13 rounds for time of 13 squats, 13 push-ups, 13 reverse crunches and 13 dips. I think we got about 6-7 rounds in before time was called. I hope everyone else was as smoked as I was.
