SATURDAY 8.4.18
This workout is a memorable one for MANY people!! It was such a fun one to watch and looked like such a fun one to do.
Basically the way it worked was the athletes had a pile of sandbags at the top of the stands on one side of the stadium. They had to take them down the stairs and dump them over. Then they had to wheelbarrow them across - throw them back over the wall - and carry them UP the stairs on the other side.

No real RX again, just since you all have different weights of bags/balls etc. Use what you have. Put what you did in comments.
Ideally men will have 50#+ for this one and Women 30# + for this one - not TOO heavy.
Score: Total Time
For the farmer carries you will hold a dumbbell or kb in each hand. You will hold them the same way for the step up and overs.
You will do a 50 meter out - 50 meter back carry. Drop your plate and run that same distance.
Do that 10 times.
After you have completed 10 rounds of that you will do 50 step up and overs on your box holding your plate at your chest. Box height should be 18-20" for the ladies and 22-24" for the men ideally.
You will step up with your WHOLE foot on the box. You do not have to stand all of the way up once you are on the box. Step down on the other side. That is 1 rep.
It is probably a good idea to alternate feet each step, but it is not required.
