5 rounds for time of:

Run 400 meters
15 overhead squats

Men use 95 lb.

For time:

3 rounds of:

Row 1,000 meters

The hip-back extensions, as well as the GHD sit-ups, should be performed in a slow, controlled manner. Don't let that slow pace carry over to the rows. Hit the row hard.

For time:

Run 5k

While not the highest power output workout in the MetFix arsenal, the real world application of moving yourself from Point A, to a distant Point B makes the 5K an invaluable test.

Interestingly, for a person of average height, the distance to the visible horizon is roughly 4.8km, making the length of this run about "as far as you can see."

In this presentation from 2019, Greg Glassman tells the story of how bad science, primarily in the form of corruption, led him to make business decisions to fight to protect his affiliate gyms.
With chronic diseases ravaging the world due to sedentarism and excessive carbohydrate consumption, Greg’s gyms offered cures and prevention through lifestyle change. The professional trainers affiliated with Greg through CrossFit were offering solutions and support that frequently flew in contrast to the commonly accepted, though corrupted, medical and scientific practices. Greg knew that much of the science was flawed, and rallied here for his affiliates to keep fighting the good fight.
