The “Tellier” WOD

YHC has been sitting on this one for a little while, and was actually planning on rolling it out at Cryptonite this Saturday, but due to Florence, YHC decided to drop it on the Shawshank Pax. The Pax responded as they always do, with mumblechatter.

Sgt. Zachary Tellier, 31, was killed in action on September 29th, 2007. The previous April, Tellier was awarded the Bronze Star when a vehicle in his mounted patrol hit an IED. Tellier pulled two paratroopers out of the burning vehicle suffering severe burns to both of his hands. After he was burned, he jumped in the turret to return fire. Never Forget and Honor Their Sacrifice.

Weather:  the calm before the storm…

The Thang:
There is a slight modification I added to the workout, and that was done by adding a running element between each cycle. It added up to 1 mile of running.

Moleskin: Its been a year since my head on collision, which ultimately blew up my knee. No big deal, could have been a lot worse. The pain it causes every day is a reminder that life is short. Do something with it. Love your wife, your kids, those around you. Strive to be better today than yesterday. Help your fellow man. Find your purpose and attack it every day. Be fearless, so when the time comes, you can #LeaveNoDoubt.

Devo excerpt:
“Leave your concerns and worries behind today and let your heart rest in His promises. You are safe in the hands of your Creator and He is a good Father, who take cares of everything that belongs to Him!”
