aka: “The CIA Seven” I wasn't feeling this workout at first but I actually really really liked the way it was set up. Great WOD! Oh - and I used 35# DBs for the Thrusters because my shoulder was hurting..
11/16/19 - Day 16 of my 30 for 30 Heroes Challenge. Today was very tough. I was just all over fatigued. It was all I could do to get through this and I am SO glad Beth was there doing it with me... I did everything unbroken but I just had to rest a long time between each movement. I think it was physical and mental fatigue. I just couldn't make myself move... but, I made it through and I was honored to do it for these Heroes. **************************** A suicide bomber killed seven CIA officers and one Jordanian officer at a remote base in southeastern Afghanistan on December 30, 2009 after posing as a potential informant reporting on Al Qaeda. Seven new stars will be etched onto the memorial wall at the CIA where every star represents grieving friends, family and colleagues dedicated to fight against the enemy, forever in their name. Killed in the attack were CIA officers Jennifer Lynne Matthews, 45; Scott Michael Roberson, 39; Harold E. Brown Jr., 37; Darren LaBonte, 35; Elizabeth Hanson, 30; and security contractors Jeremy Jason Wise, 35, and Dane Clark Paresi, 46.
