Hero Week: Day Two

Honoring Navy SEAL Senior Chief Chad Michael Wilkinson

“Chad”

For Time:

1000 Step Ups (20 Inches)

*Rx: Use a weighted vest, ruck pack, etc... (45 / 35 Pounds)

Today we honor Navy SEAL Senior Chief Chad Michael Wilkinson, a dedicated member of the U.S. Navy who passed away by suicide on October 29, 2018, while on active duty in Virginia Beach, bringing to a close 22 years of service. Chad's spouse shared that he frequently trained by performing 1,000 step-ups for time on a 20" box while carrying a 45-pound pack, preparation for his climb of Mt. Aconcagua. His loss is a solemn reminder that many veterans continue to fight unseen battles-not against foreign foes, but within themselves.
