Alright, we are going a bit off the programming template, but after a rough few days with weights, we are going to do a 5 km run today to give our shoulders, hamstrings, and other body parts a bit of a rest.
Let's meet in the '62 Room, warm-up for a bit, and then hit the 5k route. (Comm's House to Lee Gate and back).
Please bring reflective belt, so we set the proper example in front of the new cadets.
See you there!

Tomorrow at USMA there is a post-wide force protection exercise. A few impacts of note: parking at Arvin, Thayer, and Doubleday will be off limits; you will need your ID card at all times; and a barrier system will be in place to block the roads leading to Arvin and between Thayer and library. Parking will be bad all day, so show up early, park at Clinton Lots (Trophy Point), and then do some CrossFit!
Let's meet at the River Courts at 0545 to warm up and then get after it.
AMRAP 25
11 x pull-ups
11 x dips
Run up black metal stairway to Hell, all the way to the top to by the WP Club (Thayer Road)
11 x burpees, then run down stairs to start point.
NOTE: For those not at West Point, run up the steepest, nastiest hill you can find (approx. 400 meters) or run up 6 flights of stairs.
NOTE2: Carry your ID card with you so that if you get stopped next to the WP Club while doing burpees, you can quickly drive on and not ruin your time!

Overhead squat
10-5-5-3-3-1
This is an untimed WOD in which you focus on strength, form, technique, etc.
In between each set knock out 15 x GHD sit-ups for good measure.
Post weight to comments.
Also, if anyone is interested and available in running Bear Mountain (45 mins.) on Saturday morning, please reply in the comments. Carissa is departing next week and would like to hit Bear Mtn before departing. Run is on trails and upstairs. Challenging physically, but not technical at all. Only need regular running shoes and strong legs!

Partner up, grab a 20 lbs. medicine ball and head to Hayes Gym for some IOCT fun!
3 Rounds for Time of the IOCT with the team carrying 1 x 20 lbs. medicine ball.
Here are the rules:
* You and your partner will together run 3 rounds of the IOCT for time.
* 1 x 20 lbs. medicine ball must be carried by one of the team members the entire time.
* If the medicine ball EVER touches the ground, then both team members must immediately drop and knock out a 25 push-up penalty.
* The medicine ball must travel on the same route as participants, but can be held by your partner while you are executing an obstacle (i.e. you don't have to hold the med ball while climbing the rope, but one person can climb the rope and the other can throw the ball up to their waiting partner).
* Due to safety considerations, the medicine ball cannot be thrown from the track level down to the floor level. When one partner climbs the shelf, up to the track, and cross the parallel bars, the other partner will stay by the shelf to hand off the ball prior to climbing up the shelf.
* Partners are NOT allowed to assist each other by touching, pushing, or pulling each other. Any physical contact between partners other than incidental will face a 25 push-up penalty.
* For the running portion of the IOCT, you must not only carry the 20 lbs. med ball, but each member must also carry the baton (lap 1), the IOCT med ball (3 balls total for 2 people...fun!), and finally a lap with just the 20 lbs. ball to finish.
* The course (and time) starts and ends in front of the low crawl obstacle.
If you are not at USMA, then find a creative way to punish yourself for about 15 minutes or make up a past WOD.
