WOD (starts NLT 0550)

Today we will do a WOD in a 'round robin' format.  Although it is an individual effort, 4 people will join together and rotate through a sequence of 4 events.  You will rotate through in an orderly fashion from one event to the next.  You will keep a running total of your reps over all 3 rounds.  The clock with continue to run and people rotate automatically to the next exercise in the sequence once time is up.  After everyone in the group has completed all 4 events, then EVERYONE rests for 1 minute at the same time - this completes 1 round (total time = 5 minutes).  Repeat sequence 2 more times and report total reps complete.  It will take 15 minutes to complete this WOD.
