"Mr. Joshua"35 min

5 Rounds For Time:
400 Meter Run
30 AbMat Sit-ups
15 Deadlifts 250 / 165 lb

Time Cap: 35 Minutes

Stimulus
  • Overview: This is a repeat workout from 8/19/23. “Mr. Joshua” is a CrossFit Hero WOD named after SO1 Joshua Thomas Harris, 36, who drowned during combat operations, August 30th 2008 in Afghanistan. He is survived by his parents Dr. Sam and Evelyn Harris, his brother Ranchor and twin sister Kiki.
  • Run: Should be completed in less than 2:15 each round.
  • Sit-Ups: Reps should be completed in less than 1:30 each round.
  • Deadlifts: Loading should not exceed 70% of your 1RM deadlift. Reps should be completed in about 1:00 each round.
  • Score: Total time. If capped, add 1s for every missed rep.
Strategy
  • Pace the run in a way that will allow you to push the sit-ups and deadlifts.
  • Find a smooth, steady pace on the sit-ups.
  • You should not need more than 1 break each round if 15 seems like too many to hold onto.
  • Lots of time can be wasted on transitions. Try to be urgent about getting each movement started.
