The Reaper, what can you say…it helps you get better in so many ways. You can train for numerous events with it, either version. Training for a GORUCK event, come to the Reaper. Training for the hills of the BRR, come to the Reaper. Training for a 5K, 10K, half or full marathon, come to the Reaper. Want to get faster, come to the Reaper. Want to get stronger, come to the Reaper. Want a challenge, come to the Reaper. So what YHC is trying to say is, come to the Reaper…the pain will only be temporary.
Weather: 65°
The Thang:
Start at the bottom of hill, run up to top, 21 Merkins, run to bottom of hill, 21 LBC’s. Rinse and repeat for 45 minutes adding one rep each round up and down. Each week we will score the Pax on rounds completed and weight carried. Our first place finisher will have the distinct honor of being our #TheUndertaker for the week. Points system is as follows: 20 points per round completed (half round when completing Merkins at the top of the hill). 1 point for every 2 pounds carried.
All pax results are posted here
