Each athlete will complete 1 round
10 - burpee to sandbag over shoulder

400 meter paddleboard

Sandbag
Men-60 # Women - 35#






Movement Standards:

Burpee:

For successful completion of the burpee, athletes must ensure their entire body is positioned behind the sandbag. There should be no body parts extending over the top or sides of the sandbag. Observe the distance maintained by our demo instructors between themselves and the sandbag while executing the burpee.

Regardless of the sandbag's orientation, whether it falls perpendicular to the athlete or not, the athlete must maintain their hands and head behind the sandbag at all times. This rule applies whether the athlete is at the side or the top of the sandbag.

Paddleboard Transition:

Before initiating the paddleboard segment, athletes must don a life jacket. Support will be provided at the paddleboard docks to assist athletes in getting onto the paddleboard and launching.

Shoes are not mandatory for the paddleboard segment.


1.25 mile run

ALL will be doing a 1.25 mile run/sprint/jog/walk with NO WEIGHT to the convention center.

Teams do not need to run together.  As soon as the team mate finishes the paddleboard, they must tag partner and can either wait to run together or take off on their own.  The work out is finished when all team mates reach the assigned lane in the convention center. 

Movement Standards:

Paddleboard to Run Transition:

Signage will be in place to guide athletes on the route from the paddleboard venue, onto the sidewalk that leads to the convention center.

Convention Center Arrival:

When reaching the convention center, athletes will navigate through the parking lot, following the curve leading to the back entrance. At this location, a lane-specific judge will be present to record the completion time.

Athletes must run up to their assigned lane's judge. If an athlete begins in Lane 1 at the paddleboard venue, they will be finishing in Lane 1 inside the convention center.
