VETERANS DAY HERO WOD - CHAD 1000X

Veteran Suicide Prevention

Sara Wilkinson CrossFit, Rogue, and GORUCK present the hero workout “Chad 1000X” - in honor of Navy SEAL Chad Wilkinson who took his life on October 29, 2018 due to the effects of numerous deployments, several TBIs, blast wave injuries and PTSD. Our goal is to honor Chad’s life and legacy and to raise awareness for suicide prevention.

This year join us again in paying respect to Chad Wilkinson and all of those who have been lost to suicide, while also committing to try to change the number. Check out www.chad1000x.com to donate/register for event. Then join the GORUCK crew at CrossFit Total Control on 11/17/2024 to complete the workout.

THE WORKOUT

  2. Standard // 30#/20# rucksack. You pick the height of the step-ups.

  3. Expert // 45# rucksack. Use 20” box for step-ups.

“Even while serving as a SEAL, Chad took time to scale up to the Expert version. There is zero shame in starting Slick, or with Standard weight, or in sharing the steps with a friend.” -- Sara Wilkinson
