A big thanks to Mica, Anna, Pete, C.K., Cody, David, and Jennie for honoring Ssgt. Ingham, Cpl. Lowe, and Cpl. Uzenski tonight by participating in the “Bear Shark” Hero WOD! Running on a windy, cold night (30+ degrees) is the least we could do to honor these guys who gave the ultimate sacrifice.

Thanks to Mike and Scott of CrossFit Malibu for informing us of the “Bear Shark” Hero WOD! They mention The Boneyard in one of their blog posts: CrossFit Malibu – Tuesday 110111.
This WOD was not as half as bad as I thought it would be. I did 16kg swings, 65# thrusters, and 135# deadlifts. My time: 23:12. I think I chose the correct weights. My ITB lasted to the third run (which took me almost 5 minutes and I looked like a one-legged runner) before it went berzerk on me.
Being ahead of Cody, David and Chris in the workout made me push harder.
I beat the boys, I beat the boys… 😉
Hi, I think we’re doing this tomorrow. For clarification do we do the run once or 3 times?
Thanks!
Hey Bob! Yes, it is 3 runs. Where are you doing it? Good luck!
