Disclaimer and then into A little Moroccan night clubs, some chinooks, and bringing the Don Quixote’s. Got into plank, runners/hurdler stretch on both sides.
“BERT” – U.S. Marine Cpl. Albert Gettings, 27, of New Castle, Pennsylvania, died on Jan. 5, 2009, while conducting counter-sniper operations in Fallujah, Iraq. Cpl. Gettings was serving as a team leader with the 2nd Battalion, 6th Marine Regiment, 2nd Marine Division, II Marine Expeditionary Force, of Camp Lejeune, North Carolina, at the time of his death. Every quarter, Cpl. Gettings’ fellow Marines in Fox Company complete a special CrossFit workout in his honor as part of the Cpl. Albert P. Gettings Award ceremony. He is survived by his wife, Stephanie Palimino; parents, David and Juliet; and sister, Cori.

Tha Thang:
YHC brought this Hero workout to the Westside this morning. No splashing of Merlot. A few shed their shirts. And one didn’t look like he even broke a sweat.
40 Burpees – 400 meter Run (2 laps around the parking lot)
80 Merks – 400 meter Run
120 Walking Lunges – 400 meter Run
160 Air Squats – 400 meter Run
120 Walking Lunges – 400 meter Run
80 Merks – 400 meter Run
40 Burpees – 400 meter Run
But wait, there’s more. For the PAX that was in first place after the run, he had to do 25 weighted step ups (50#) on a 20” step. Note: Last year’s bleachers during the Chad1000x were only 17 inches. All PAX had their turn with the ruck and plyo box. Doobie had the opportunity to do it twice during the entire evolution.

#rama, name-o-rama
Continue to lift up Buzz and his family as his father-in-law begins chemo. Also continued prayers for the Barrier family coping with their loss.
Be the leaders we were meant to be. Find ways to do it with grace and poise as we positively impact our family, our communities, and our workplaces.
It was an honor and pleasure to spend time with you fellas this morning. Strong work and even better fellowship. Still waiting on Trophy aka Mr Party Pants to show up though!
Pledge, pray, and on our way!
