14 Comments / Workout of the Day (WOD) / By

Today, we will be participating in the Veteran Hero WOD CHAD1000X which is a fundraiser that supports Veteran Mental Health Initiatives.  The gym will be open from 8am-12pm. Come in anytime during those hours to take on this Hero WOD but there will be an official warm-up at 8:30am and the workout will start at 9:00am.  The 8am and 9am classes are canceled.

CHAD 1000X

1,000 box step-ups completed as a team, partner, or individual for time.
 
Chad Wilkinson, a Navy SEAL, died by suicide on Oct. 29, 2018, due to the effects of numerous deployments, several TBIs, blast-wave injuries, and PTSD.
 
Chad was an aspiring mountaineer and he created this workout to train for a 23,000-foot climb in Argentina. CHAD1000X can be done anywhere and is scalable to all fitness levels, but as with all of CrossFit Hero workouts, it is a long and mental grind.
