COVID-19 has created a new normal. The President has advised the public to avoid gathering groups of larger than 10, which has put a halt to how we normally do F3. Today was supposed to be a triumphant return to Hurricanrana after setting a blazing time at the Tobacco Road Marathon. Unfortunately, the coronavirus outbreak cancelled the race, and suspended our F3 workouts. YHC looked through his resources and found a great workout that PAX could complete OYO. Today’s virtual workout would be the Loredo WOD.
For those wondering, the Loredo WOD is named after US Army Staff Sergeant Edwardo Loredo. He was killed on June 24, 2010 in Afghanistan by insurgents. So the 6 rounds and 24 reps represent the day he died in combat. He was stationed out of Fort Bragg and the WOD was created in his honor by Michelle Benedict, a member of CrossFit Fort Bragg.
To my knowledge, 9 PAX completed the workout this morning.
Warm-Up
5 minutes of exercises to get loose.
The Thang: The Loredo
6 Rounds for time:
- 24 air squats
- 24 merkins
- 24 walking lunges
- 400 m run
YHC decided to do this workout for approximately half an hour, completed 8 rounds of the Loredo as opposed to the standard 6.
