Hero WOD
Complete as many rounds as possible in 45 minutes of:
Run 800 meters
80 Squats
8 Pull-ups (jump up, slow down or reverse pull-ups)
This WOD is called a Hero WOD because it is done in honor of a fallen soldier. This WOD was created in honor of U.S. Army Captain John D. Hortman, 30, of Inman, South Carolina, who died on August 8, 2011, in Fort Benning, Georgia, in a helicopter accident during a military training exercise. When you feel like you can’t go on and are only 10 minutes into this, think of the soldiers and what they push themselves through every day for us and keep going!

6 rounds- Great workout!!!
5 rounds plus 800 m run and 10 squats. My quads are screaming at me for the extra leg workout after WOD yesterday. Those squats were tough today!
It's pouring rain and blowing a gale, these are the days I wish I had a treadmill!! Oh well, I will pick something from my wod hopper and do this another day!
Good luck ladies!
Altogether- 2.54 miles, 400 squats and 40 pull ups (jump up, slow lower) on a tree:) lol yes, I was running outside and found the perfect tree:)
5 rounds- I knew I was forgetting something! 🙂 that workout wore me out! 🙂
Did a long run yesterday, so broke it up into 400m row, 40 squats, 4 pull up then .25mi run, 40 squats then 4 pull up = 1 round. Total 5 and 1/2 rounds. Good one
5 rounds. As a helicopter pilots wife, especially to a deployed sailor, may God bless all of our military and bring them home safe!

Loving all the wod this week, keep them coming.
7 rounds, YIKES that was hard! 3.5 miles, 560 squats and I had to substitue push ups for pull ups – the pull up machine was 1/2 way accross the gym, finished about 10 seconds over 45min. GREAT KILLER workout!
5 rounds! HOLY WOD!! That was a good one!!!
4 rounds, but loved it!! I'm a slow runner!
Only had 20 minutes this morning, but went 5 seconds over to complete 3 rounds. Awesome job to all those completing 45 minutes – I'm dripping after just 20.

40 squats
8 tricep dips
i feel like I need more core exercises.

Subbed pull-up/slow downs for pushups. My bar is upstairs and my treadmill is in the basement.

Super strict with my squats after watching Monday's video. Surprisingly, the squats were easy with no burn! Love progression.
Felt slow on the runs but it was 45 minutes with 560 squats so I will let it pass.
Jump pull-ups.
Unfortunately, I did not have 45 minutes for working out today, so I did Monday's workout that I missed. I'll do this one tomorrow or Saturday.
🙂

6 Rounds! This is really getting me moving and changing the way I look at working out! I was always just 'a runner,' but now its great to have a little more!
The six rounds I did took 49 minutes, executed back to back after friday's WOD, 2 min rest in between.
Free Style XC skiing 1400 m,
Squats and jumpin pull ups, slowly down done with skis on, had to take the poles off for pull ups.
This was a blast! And people Staring and wondering what the hell I was doing was just making me workout out harder.

Great WOD!
3 rounds. I have to move WODs around to fit my schedule so doing this on Sunday.
First week of WODs and I'm slow, but loving it! I'm determined to get more rounds next time!
Pat – 5rds +800
Maria – 5rd +300
4 rounds + 800m with only 15 seconds to spare.
Pull ups on arm of treadmill.
Would never ever have pushed myself to do so many squats, so thank you for that! Scary how many strides it took for my legs to switch back over into "running mode" after the squats.
Almost 4 rounds!
3 plus the running, pull-ups and 31 squats of the 4th round. I had two-ish minutes left when I finished the 4th run, so I figured I'd do the pull-ups and then just squat until time ran out.
I finished the rest of the 80 squats after time.
