Day 75 & 76 : Diane & Operation Huey Down

Day 75 : Diane

Friday is "Benchmark Friday" ... we get to pick one of the "girls" or heros workouts and see how we do. This week I chose "Diane" ...

This was the workout:

21 - 15 - 9
- 225# Deadlift
- Handstand Pushups - 24" Box

I completed it in 7:05. Was pretty happy with this ... it was hard one.

Day 76 : Operation Huey Down

Full Mission Profile.

Situation: One UH-1Y Huey Gunship has been downed by small arms fire Northeast of Kabul. There were 4 souls on board. Last transmission reported that all 4 were alive, coherent, wounded and trapped but once freed, could probably walk.

Objective: Execute rescue mission by foot from nearest LZ, LZ O.C., 1 mile south of crash site. Rescue all 4 crewman and salvage all crypto gear and weapons and egress back to LZ. Time is of the essence as enemy is reported in the area.

Phase I - Rush to Crash Site
4 x 400m / 20 Mountain Climbers

Phase II - Crewman rescue
4 Rounds
20 DL @ 135
20 KBS @ 55 (Mod'd 35#)
20 Cleans @ 135 (Mod'd 95#)

Phase III - LZ Egress
4 x 400m / 20 Walking Lunges

Note - Phase III will be done holding DBs or KBs of various weights to simulate carrying the crewman's equipment and the gear salvaged from crash site.

I did this one in approximately 52 mins. This was EXTREMELY difficult ... did most of it with a 10# flak jacket. This was also Casey's (OC) last training WOD for about 2 years. He's getting deployed but coming back after 2 years. You are really going to be missed!
