One week away from our teams taking on Nationals at the Mount. Everyone have been training extremely hard and I am super proud of the commitment you have all shown over the period it can’t be easy juggling family life and fitting in extra training sessions. Your last week of preparation is super important. Understanding that you will not increase your fitness before the comp but you can certainly detrain yourself. Don’t try to fit in heaps of work this week. Just do normal classes Monday-Wednesday and rest thursday. It would be wise to do a little extra stretching before and after your flight. Be excited and make sure to have a good time up there. It is not worth worrying too much as the whole experience will become a nightmare. Embrace the challenges that comes with competing and use your teammates for support if need be.
Good luck to everyone competing

Op completion of a round dismantle your barbell and carry the barbell 200m away, run back carry one plate 200m run back carry the other plate 200m. Put your barbell back together and proceed with your next round. Continue in this fashion for until time cap is met.
Even though you know how I hate modifying Hero Wod for obvious reasons we have made this a partner wod and due to time constraints you have the option of scaling it back to a 40 min AMRAP at coaches discretion.
In 2016 the Under Secretary of the US Army contacted CrossFit and requested that a workout be programmed for US Army’s 241st birthday – June 14, 1775.
