/Mike had a suggestion for a hero workout this morning. He liked Small.
"Small"
Three rounds for time of:
Row 1000 meters
50 Burpees
50 Box jumps, 24" box
Run 800 meters
Kristan Clever 39:31, Eric Miller 41:43, Rebecca Voigt 44:19, Pam Eamranond 49:45, Katie Hogan 51:29.
And...remembering and honoring the hero:
U.S. Army Staff Sergeant Marc Small, 29, of Collegeville, Pennsylvania, assigned to 1st Battalion, 3rd Special Forces Group (Airborne), based in Fort Bragg, North Carolina, died on February 12, 2009, from wounds sustained when insurgents attacked his unit with a rocket-propelled grenade launcher and small arms fire in Faramuz, Afghanistan. He is survived by his father and stepmother, Murray and Karen, mother and stepfather, Mary and Peter MacFarland, and fiancee Amanda Charney.
I only have 1 post for this workout, although it seems like I have done it more than once. On May 10, 2016 I recorded a 43:44. Today, I did it in 41:12. That is a measurable difference. I can contribute it to my diet, weighing in today at 168 pounds, some needed rest over the last couple of weeks and being pushed by my friends.
Great way to start the morning!
