Warrior Challenge 2011

Morning

Today was the 3rd annual Warrior Challenge held on the beach at Avon by the Sea, NJ.  All told, over 200 people participated this year, triple the amount from last year.  We also raised over $20,000 for the Silent Warrior Fund to support the Task Force Dagger Foundation.

This year's schedule looked like:

0700-0800:	Event Registration
0800-0830:	Opening Remarks
0830:	Kick Off. 1 Mile Deep Sand Run Begins
0900:	Maximum Pull-Up Challenge
0945:	2:00 Minute Burpee Challenge
1015:	Mystery Event
1045-1200:	Special Forces Demonstration
1200-1215:	Event Ends

4th Event: Sandbag extended arm hold

Taking a knee to count burpees

It was a great time and a good work out.  Official results will be posted this week, so then I'll know how I stacked up against everyone else.  Overall I believe I did pretty well.

Notes

• Body: Felt well rested.  Nerves were on edge though and I focused on bringing down my stress level.  I put a lot of pressure on myself and I believe that was the cause.
• Workout: Good fun day at the beach.
