We must never forget the attacks on September 11th, 2001. Terrorists attempted to destroy our way of life and test our resolve that day and failed. Today we chose the WOD “343” in honor of all who were killed in this attack on our great country; with 343 representing the number of New York Firefighters and EMT’s who gave their lives while trying to save others in the World Trade Center. This workout tested our own internal resolve and was just a small way to pay our respects and remember all who have sacrificed in the name of Freedom since 9/11.
