Sara Wilkinson, CrossFit, and Rogue Fitness present the Hero workout CHAD1000X in honor of Navy SEAL Chad Wilkinson, who died by suicide on Oct. 29, 2018, due to the effects of numerous deployments, several TBIs, blast-wave injuries, and PTSD. Our goal is to honor Chad’s life and legacy, and to raise awareness for suicide prevention.

Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s workout is a long grind. Complete as a team, with a partner, or individually for time. If you have completed this workout before, look at your previous time and use that information to help you tackle today’s effort. If this is your first time performing this workout, consider cutting the workout in half or giving yourself 30 minutes to complete as many step-ups as possible. You may also reduce the load, reps, and the complexity of the step-ups by reducing the height of the box.

Intermediate option:
For time:
1,000 weighted step-ups

♀ 20-lb ruck, 20-inch box
♂ 30-lb ruck, 20-inch box

Beginner option:
For time:
500 unweighted step-ups

No ruck, 12-inch box

On Monday, hiked the Manitou Incline in Manitou Springs, Colorado. 2756 steps of wildly varying heights, climbing over 2000’ in about a mile. Then, a 3.5 mile hike in the Barr trail to return to the base.

Props to Sara, CF, and Rogue for using Chad’s tragic death to help others.
