HERO WOD WEEK!

Once a month we honor a hero by performing a HERO WOD.

Why you ask? Because these WODs honor and function as a memorial for men and women who have died in the line of duty while working in the military, or as police officers or firefighters. 

And because they’re tough as hell, and CrossFitters love to challenge themselves physically and mentally.

HERO WOD Glen this week!
