  • Living Hero WOD – from Mahatma

    I knew the challenge when I hit send….Mr. Rogers has set the expectation for a “Hero” beatdown so I decided to go with one living. Sgt Dakota Meyer – Medal of Honor Recipient Afghanistan. His story on YouTube is worth the 10 minutes. While I tried to give some motivating tidbits the key is simply enter and endure the storm (especially with prayer) as often you’ll look back and it was really the fear not the storm because it was actually only a shower!
