Lest We Forget - In honour of our fallen heroes

Lest We Forget - In honour of our fallen heroes

Story

Last year we raised $1600 for Soldier On as part of our participation in Run Like A Beast, a 11km mud and obstacle run under the team name Fourgetaboutit. This year we are going to do it all again but a little differently as we felt a little guilty expanding your waist lines and reducing ours. This year we will do all the hard work for you.

We will have two teams of four and as part of our training regime, every APS pay Friday we are going to conduct a Hero WOD. For those unfamiliar with Crossift, a WOD is a Workout Of the Day. They are generally a mix of cardio, weightlifting, gymnastics and acrobatics, think physical and mental challenge. The Hero component stems from naming a WOD after an individual who has fallen in the line of duty (Military, Police, Fire etc). Our focus will be conducting Hero WOD's created for an individual Australian Soldier and hosting and doing them on, or as close to, the anniversary of when they lost their life in Afghanistan.

Our slogan is "Donate and/or Participate." We will encouraging people to join us or sponsor our pain and suffering with a gold coin, we would appreciate either offer.

Don't think to yourself, I can't do that or it looks too hard. Instead focus on what you can do, scale where needed, and think about the hero that has given his or her all for our freedom. Honour these Hero's with your best effort.
