Don’t go by Google, just look at it. If it is purple – it counts! For example, Japanese yams, purple carrots, purple cauliflower, eggplant, black beans, red cabbage, red grapes, blackberries…. Names can be deceiving, just go based on what it looks like. Beets are red and blueberries are blue. Remember, you must hit 800g to be eligible for the bonus point.

WODS

WOD 1
500 Meter Row
21 Thrusters (35#)
30 Sit Ups

Athlete one rows five-hundred meters. As soon as he/she moves to thrusters athlete two will then row five-hundred meters. Then same with athlete three. Athlete one will move to sit ups once he/she is done with thrusters. Athlete two and three can only move forward to the next exercise once the athlete in front of them has moved on. Your score will be total time for all three athletes to clear the three exercises.

WOD 2
600 Meter Run
60 Pull Ups
60 Box Jumps (20″)
60 Power Cleans (85/65)
600 Meter Run

For workout two, only one person works at a time. For the run, each athlete will run two-hundred meters. Once the run is completed by all three athletes they will move on to pull ups (scale: ring rows no banded pull ups.) Athletes must do at least five reps (of the sixty) but cannot do more than 10 reps in a row. Once the team has completed pull ups they’ll move to box jumps (scale: step ups) at 20 inches. Again, all athletes must do at least 5 box jumps/step ups (of the sixty) but cannot do more than 10 reps per turn. Once box jumps are complete, the team moves to power cleans at either eight-five or sixty-five pounds (same rep rules apply) and then finishes with each athlete running another two-hundred meters. Scores will be total time.

WOD 3
AMRAP 10
100 Burpees
3 Rep Max Press

Teams will complete one-hundred burpees with one person working at a time. Once the burpees are complete, in the remaining time each athlete will establish a three rep max strict press. Your score is total weight. If your team does not complete the burpees your score is the number of burpees your team completed.
