The bravest are surely those who have the clearest vision of what is before them...


The bravest are surely those who have the clearest vision of what is before them...glory and danger alike, and yet notwithstanding, go out to meet it.  

Today's workout is a "hero" workout in honor of the Hotsthots 19 - the firefighters who died while battling the forest fires in Arizona earlier this summer.  I don't normally post pics of those honored in our hero workouts, but you know what?  Maybe I should start doing that!  Just another way to honor the fallen who have literally put everything they had on the line.  :)

RIP Hotshots 19
   6 rounds for time*
      30 Squats*
      19  Power Clean w/65 lbs*
      7 Pull-ups
      Run 400 meters

Above is the regular, prescribed workout on CrossFit Brand X's website.  It's modified as follows:
*Pack - 4 rounds for time
          - everything else the same
*Pups - 3 rounds for time
          - 15 squats
          - 19 Power cleans w/10-25 lbs
          - 7 Pull-ups
          - run 400 meters

I haven't decided how many rounds I'm going to do.  I do know I will do at least 4 rounds and keep everything as originally prescribed except for the weights with the power cleans.  My max weights are 50 lbs, so I'll more than likely just use that - at least start out using that!

Happy Labor Day, y'all!!
