Today we have a longer chipper-style workout. Expect the kettlebell swings and knees-to-elbows to play off of each other in an interesting way. Use a kettlebell that allows you to perform each section in 2 sets or less. You should always be able to complete at least 5 knees-to-elbows throughout the workout. Aim to complete each run in 5 minutes or less. Work hard and have fun today.

This Hero WOD is long and grueling. Most of the exercises are approachable by all skill levels, but the total volume should be reduced for newer athletes.

Scaling:
Complete both 800-meter runs in 5 minutes or less. However, don't crush yourself on the first run because you need to come back to the kettlebell and get right to work. The loading of the kettlebell should allow for 15-plus reps at a time. As for the lunges, keep moving and try to go unbroken. Get moving on your final run. Your legs will feel a little like Jell-O, but once you start moving, they’ll remember what to do.
