Sept 11th WOD

“Valor is a gift. Those having it never know for sure whether they have it till the test comes. And those having it in one test never know for sure if they will have it when the next test comes.” ~ Carl Sandburg

Since we only have 2 rowers, you will work with a partner on the row or run only. If you want to Row, one person will row while other person is working. You Can switch at any time, so for example: one person can row 500m while other person is working, same goes for the run. Teams must complete a total of 4002 meters but EVERYONE must do all 9 exercises and 11 reps of each.
