This might just be one of the toughest, longest workouts we've seen in quite a while. CrossFit skeptics would look at the workout and find the numbers ridiculous. CrossFitters look at the same workout and find it incredibly motivating. Not just because of the respect and honor these Heroes deserve, but it's also a slap in the face of convention, and a celebration of ability.

At any scale, we were hammered today. Loved it. Thanks CFHQ!

Great workout everyone. Only one person got this beast at prescription, our resident mutant Todd O. That's a great job, and great fuel for everyone else- and it was very much needed! Thanks. Way to hang tough Matt. That time borders on cruel and unusual punishment. But you learned a valuable lesson... No seafood before the wod or we seafood again.

At any scale this workout was a real gut check. Stopping early would have been so easy if it weren't for the fact that when looking around the gym, it was clear that EVERYONE was struggling. They can go- I can go. Good stuff.

This workout is named in honor of  U.S. Air Force Senior Airman Adam Servais, assigned to the 23rd Special Tactics Squadron, who was killed August 19, 2006 in the Uruzgan Province, Afghanistan.

Wednesday is a very well deserved rest day. Use your extra time wisely and do something that feels good and helps you recover. Roll, smash, floss, feather, and floss anything gnarly. ICE anything sore, and stretch those tight hips, hams, and shoulders.

Thanks for another great day at CFSF. Thanks for your monster efforts, and fuel.

Anything worth doing is worth overdoing.
