Veteran’s Day: Honoring Wounded Warriors


More than 20 wounded warriors participated at CrossFit Rubicon in Vienna, Va., this past Saturday for the first-ever Working Wounded Games. Hosted in conjunction CrossFit Walter Reed and volunteers from other metro area CrossFit affiliates, the Working Wounded Games allows veterans with combat-related disabilities to compete in an open-style competition that will benefit two new wounded warrior charities.

I didn’t get a ton of pics for the event –but here is the gallery showcasing what I was able to take.

CrossFit Rubicon is doing great things to help wounded warriors through their non-profit The Real World Six and using adaptive assets.  The CrossFit community is made up of many former and current military and seeing CF affiliate owners really putting their money where their mouths are and helping those who have sacrificed so much for all that we have is heart warming. It’s really what puts the heart in everything we do –and I will do whatever I can to support their efforts and you should too!

Happy Veteran’s Day!
