9/11 Tribute WOD - Wednesday, September 11th, 2024

9/11 Tribute WOD

23 years ago on September 11, 2001, the United States was brutally attacked when four planes were hijacked by terrorists.  Two of the planes were sent crashing into the Twin Towers in New York, the third plane into the Pentagon in Washington D.C., and the fourth went down in a field near Shanksville, Pennsylvania. By the end of the attacks, the death toll had mounted to nearly 3,000, including the 227 civilians, 19 hijackers aboard the four planes, plus 343 firefighters and 72 police respectively. The damage done during these attacks has had a lasting effect on not only the United States, but on the entire world! 

Tomorrow we will remember the full impact of those events that unfolded on a sleepy Tuesday in September. We will pay tribute to those civilians whose lives were taken from us far too soon, we will remember to honor those police + fire who fought to protect, + we will remember as a way to remain united together around the world.

CrossFit created Hero WOD as a way for us to honour and remember in the best way we know how, through movement. The give us the ability to feel, so sweat, suffer, and grieve the fallen. The 9/11 Tribute WOD is a WOD we do annually at CrossFit Indestri to do just that.

The numbers of the workout all hold a special meaning.
2001m represents the year of the attack.
9 different movements with 11 reps of each represents the date
125 lb Thruster the number of people who lost their lives in the pentagon
175lb Power Clean symbolizes AA Flight 175 that hit the South Tower
170lb Dead Lift is symbolic of flight 77 and Flight 93 combined
110lb Push Jerks represent the number of floors in each tower of the World Trade Center buildings that were attacked
