Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s Hero workout honors U.S. Army Staff Sergeant Marc Small, 29, of Collegeville, Pennsylvania, assigned to the 1st Battalion, 3rd Special Forces Group (Airborne), based in Fort Bragg, North Carolina. He died on Feb. 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 fiancée Amanda Charney.

This is a long, grinding effort, and the best way to attack it is smooth and steady. A great goal is to finish each round in 20 minutes or less. Even as fatigue builds, hold your movement to a high standard: open your hips fully on the burpees, and stand all the way up on top of the box. As you work through it, remember the meaning behind our Hero workouts.

Intermediate option:
3 rounds for time of:
800-meter row
40 burpees
40 box jumps
800-meter run

♀ 20-inch box
♂ 24-inch box

Beginner option:
3 rounds for time of:
500-meter row
15 burpees
15 box **step-ups

RXd at the Y on 11/1. Used air runner.


50:01.


15:49-17:21-16:51. Had to break the box jumps into 10's on round 2 and 3. Broke the burpees into 10's as well on round 3 to try and preserve some energy. Runs and rows all sub 4 minutes.


Nice to have a Hero workout programed after missing the last two Thursday's! With honor.

Scaled'ish subbed

Weighted box step-ups with 2x25lb DBs (20" box) for BJs, otherwise Rx

58:02


Subbed the weighted BSUs for BJs for 2 reasons: 1) wasn't sure how the knees were going to handling the combined impact of the BJs and runs; 2) Chad is just around the corner, might as well wake the body up a bit for it. Rows were all sub 3:50. Steady pace on the burps and BSUs for rounds 1 and 2, round 3 was trash. Didn't time the runs but the first 2 were more like jogs, picked up the pace on the third run. Getting the work done to honor SSgt Small was the top goal, but happy I could keep it under an hour.


Hooah! RIP SSgt.

Rx, runs on the trueform… 52:01. Averaged a 17:20 per round. Happy with the pacing.


Right quad cramped up on the last run, had to limp it out through the finish lol. My final thought before I went to bed last night was: “damn this week has my legs shot.” Today did not help. Still a good challenge and a lot of fun. Many thanks to Staff Sgt Small, his unit and his loved ones. RIP sir.
