19- 19th (freedom day)
11- 1/1 (date of the emancipation proclamation)
63- 1863 (year of the emancipation proclamation)
65- 1865 (year of Juneteenth)

This Friday we will tackle our first annual Juneteenth WOD. You might be thinking, “What is Juneteenth?”. Juneteenth is an American holiday celebrated on June 19th commemorating when federal orders were read in Galveston, Texas, in 1865 (over two and a half years after the Emancipation Proclamation freed slaves) stating that all slaves were free. Juneteenth, also called Freedom Day, is widely accepted in the United States as the day slavery ended. This is not a day just for African Americans to celebrate but a day for all Americans to remember and revere. It’s a testament to America’s ability to recognize wrong and do its best to change course and make things right- even if that change is long overdue.

While this is considered a Community WOD, it has the volume and difficulty of a Hero WOD. After finishing six grueling rounds you still have more work to do. During the WOD, it’s suggested to think about the struggles of the past and compare them to our situation now. One hundred and fifty-five years have passed and this country is going through another upheaval. Think about how we’ve grown, about all those who have suffered and sacrificed for that growth, and remember that together we can achieve anything that once seemed impossible. Abolishing slavery did not abolish racism, and we each play a part in continuing to right the course. We all, still, have a lot of work to do.

Background: This Hero workout is dedicated to Staff Sgt. Sky Mote, 1st Marine Special Operations Battalion, USMC, who was killed in action on August 10, 2012, in Helmand Province, Afghanistan, when a rogue Afghan dressed as an Afghani police officer opened fire inside the tactical command area.During the attack, SSgt Mote exposed himself to more gunfire in an attempt to draw attention away from his fellow Marines and distract the shooter.“In his final act of bravery, he boldly remained in the open and engaged the shooter, now less than five meters in front of him,” MARSOC officials said in a release. “He courageously pressed the assault on the enemy until he received further wounds and fell mortally wounded.”Staff Sgt. Sky Mote posthumously received a Navy Cross for his actions.

The workout was designed by Coach Jason Shand of CrossFit Kent Island @crossfitkentisland (Stevensville, MD, USA). He shared, “About a month ago, I programmed the CrossFit Mainsite workout “Nukes” for the gym. As I was reading about Matthew “Nukes” Manoukian in preparation for class, I came across the story of his death. Both Nukes and Mote were incredibly heroic on that fateful day and both were posthumously awarded the Navy Cross. I searched for a Hero WOD that honored Mote, since there was a well-known workout to honor Nukes but I could not find one. So I came up with this.”

The rep scheme signifies the date of Mote’s death, 8-10-12.
