<< Return to Main Blog

WOD: “Hansen”
Five rounds for time:
30 reps, 2 pood Kettlebell swing
30 Burpees
30 Glute-ham sit-ups

Marine Staff Sgt Daniel Hansen died February 14th in Farah Providence, Afghanistan when an IED he was working on detonated. Daniel is survived by his mother Sheryll, his father Delbert, his younger sister Katie, and his twin brother Matthew (also a Marine).

As each athlete at USCF continues to push themselves harder and make greater gains, it is apparent that heart, passion, and inner drive is pushing new boundaries. Great quotes from our USCF members on setting the bar of pushing beyond average! Quotes taken from posts:

Shout out to Colin in the noon class AGAIN for going RX+ on the thrusters! 50#!!! Way to kick ass Colin! -Comment by Darby

All 400 runs during the first year at USCF were to the Look Out. I vote to bring back this standard.-Comment by Todd

Todd killed the running with angie, though we did it with 3 miles, not 4. Next time, next time. tonight was awesome. Caleb kept us all moving, good times. Glen, Ben, Brian all put out solid efforts. Good on ya.-Comment by sl

8.	Mangurph! Comment by AT — November 10, 2009 at 5:44pm
9.	Dang, I'll be at CrossFitSanDiego tomorrow, hopefully they will do a hero workout. What the hell is a Mangurph? I get Murphy but not the rest. If I was here, I would vote for Fight Gone BAD. Comment by Todd — November 10, 2009 at 6:08pm
10.	Great work out today. Thanks Dan for all your knowledge and encouragement. You add a dimension that can only positively influence US Crossfit. I agree with Christine, tomorrow is a special day for veteran's, let all remember them, they keep our country free. Peace will occur when we own and live our own peacefulness.

11.	How about JT? 21-15-9 HSPU, ring dips, push ups Comment by Erica — November 10, 2009 at 7:33pm
12.	Erica- great suggestion- but that may be what is on the schedule for Thursday:) oops I hope I did give away to much info!! :) Comment by Aly — November 10, 2009 at 8:32pm
13.	So is Mangurph a combination of Angie and Murph? How about "Running with Mangurph"? 'Cause I'm pretty sure that would be amazing. Comment by Amanda — November 10, 2009 at 8:42pm
14.	MURPH. At a place like USCF, it seems fitting to honor a man who was a Navy Seal. His sacrifice and selfless heroism is representative of all these men. Todd, Fight Gone Bad is not a hero WOD.... and who ho is Angie? Comment by christine — November 10, 2009 at 8:49pm
15.	"Who ho"? Are you saying Angie is a ho, not a hero WOD? Comment by Amanda — November 10, 2009 at 8:52pm
16.	Murph with 2 lookout runs in the middle and to the beach on the runs. Comment by AT — November 10, 2009 at 9:48pm
17.	Past the wave and down/up the stairs. Comment by At — November 10, 2009 at 9:52pm
18.	All with a 20# vest? I think Murph would of liked it. Let's do it. What time are you coming Adam? Comment by christine — November 10, 2009 at 10:29pm
19.	Adam- come to 6- Justin is helping me coach:) Will be a good one! Comment by Aly — November 10, 2009 at 10:52pm
20.	I have hung up my crossfitting shoes but I may swing by to observe the drama unfold. Comment by AT — November 10, 2009 at 11:07pm
