Stimulus and Strategy:
Today’s workout is the first event in the 2025 CrossFit Games. This effort focuses on cardiorespiratory endurance and stamina. This workout is also reminiscent of a Hero workout we completed on 250721: Jerry. However, the distances in this effort are longer. Plan for the workout to take some time. Have fun with this one today!
In case of an injury or limitation, for the run, consider a 22,000-meter Echo bike. For the row, consider a 3,000-meter run, a 3,000-meter ski erg, or a 7,000-meter Echo bike.

Beginner option:
For time:

Coaching cues:
On the rower, focus on your stroke rate. To do so, consider the time it takes you to return the handle to the catch position. Increase or decrease your rate based on your ability to recover and prepare for the final run.
