Memorial Day Weekend

This past Memorial Day Weekend, I joined Tom in taking on a Hero WOD a day.  If you have ever taken on a Hero WOD, you know that this is no easy task.  If you are unfamiliar with Hero WODs, they are hard, they usually have some advanced movements in them, and they are designed to challenge you mentally. 

First up was:

"Joshie"
5 Rounds for time
21 Dumbbell Snatch, right arm (40#/25#)
21 L-pull ups
21 Dumbbell Snatch, left arm
21 L-pull ups

Sunday was an epic trainers WOD.  We all met in the evening to take on:

"McGhee"
AMRAP in 30 min. of:
5 Deadlifts (275#/185#)
13 Push-ups
9 Box jumps (24"/20")

Monday, after watching two classes take on their choice of either "Jerry," "McGhee," or "Erin,"  Jeremy and I decided to stick with the original plan and take on the new hero WOD "Nutts"

"Nutts"
10 Hand stand push-ups
15 Deadlifts (250#)
25 Box jumps (30")
50 Pull-ups
100 Wallballs (20#)
200 Double Unders
400m Run w/45# plate

It was an epic weekend!  A lot of hard work, and good times with great friends.  It was awesome to see so many come out to honor the fallen on Monday.  Everyone gave their all in each workout!
