 Saturday we are doing the Hero Workout Gunny as a fundraiser to support his Gold Star Family. A Gold Star Family is one who has lost their service member while on active duty. We are raising funds to support Sgt. Maj. Barreras's widow. She lives in Deer Lodge and is facing a housing crisis. Her newly purchased home was declared uninhabitable through a series of very unfortunate events. She is living in a camper on her property while she works through her options. We are joining forces with Impact Montana and several other Veteran Service Organizations to raise funds to provide her secure housing through the winter. You can bring a cash donation on Saturday and I will also provide a QR code to scan to make an online donation. Command Sgt. Maj. Martin "Gunny" Barreras, 49, of Tucson, Arizona, died on May 13, 2014, of wounds he sustained during an attack on his unit on May 6, 2014. Barreras was well known for his contributions to the successful rescue of Jessica Lynch in 2003. He joined the Marine Corps in 1983 and the Army Rangers in 1988. He was the senior enlisted adviser in the 2nd Battalion, 5th Infantry, 3rd Brigade Combat Team, 1st Armored Division, Fort Bliss, Texas. He used CrossFit training to improve his fitness and the fitness of his unit. Murph and Griff were among his favorite workouts.

Conner's CrusherMatt, Lieutenant Commander Conner, served 14 years as an officer in the Unites States Navy (1995-2009). Matt was a Naval Aviator and flew helicopters. He flew the SH-60F and HH-60H Seahawks, and the MH-60S Knighthawk.
After attending flight school and earning his Naval Aviator "Wings of Gold", Matt was deployed with his squadron, HS-6, on the aircraft carrier USS CARL VINSON (CVN-70) twice in support of Operation Southern Watch ('98-'99), and Operation Enduring Freedom ('01-'02). Then, he was a helicopter instructor pilot and flight standardization officer at HS-10, Naval Air Station North Island in Coronado, California. Matt met his wife and Bozeman native, Cheri, through his squadron-mate, and future best-man, Billy Fraser. Matt continued in the Naval Reserves for three years after moving to Bozeman in 2006, commuting down to San Diego, CA once a month for flight duties. In 2009 with a young family and a new business started, he left the reserves and became a full-time civilian and lunchtime CrossFit regular. Conner's Crusher With a partner or a team of 3 4 Rounds for time to honor his rank = O-4 14 Push Press 95/65 - 14 reps to honor his years in service. Each partner must do 14 before moving on - one partner holds a plank while the other lifts. Reps can be broken up in any order, but both partners must complete 14 each. 60 Burpee Box Over - 60 reps to honor the type of helicopters he flew. Break up the reps between partners. Teams only need to complete 60 total reps, one partner works while the other rests. 140 Double Unders - 140 reps to honor his two tours aboard CVN-70. Break up the reps between partners. Both can work at the same time. If one finishes before the other, that partner does flutter kicks. |
