31 Heroes

I had a chance to participate in the fund raiser in honor of the 31 Navy Seals that died recently. From 31heroes.com:
On September 3, 2011 CrossFit gyms across the nation and world will gather together to honor our heroes killed in action August 6, 2011 with a workout in an effort to raise funds for the families affected by this tragedy. All funds received will go to these families through the Navy SEAL Foundation, other like-organizations, & individual family funds.

“31Heroes”: AMRAP 31 Min (As Many Reps As Possible)
  • 8 Thrusters (155 lbs)
  • 6 Rope Climbs (15 ft. ascent)
  • 11 Box Jumps (24in)
While one person is doing the above, the other partner runs 400m with a 40lb sandbag. When the runner gets back, they switch.

This workout was tough. My partner and I completed 138 reps.
