2 rounds
2x400m, :45 rest b/t
3:00 rest
8x100m, :10 rest b/t
3:00 rest
2x400m, :45 rest b/t
Pacing: For the 400’s add :45 to your Mile PR Pace then divide by 4. Example: if mile PR is 6:15 my pace for the 400’s today should be 1:45 (6:15+:45=7:00, 7:00/4=1:45). The 100s should be fast, but not a full-on sprint. Take a calculated risk and see if you can push it keeping in mind you have two 400m as a finale. The 100s are the focus of the workout today.

In February we launched out our first ever FCF Bingo game, where our athletes, if they wanted, grabbed some custom bingo cards and went to town on getting boxes checked off by coaches. Our idea behind it was to help our community grow by doing a little more than showing up for the WOD and then head home.
Big congrats t to Melissa F., Jon W., and Jeffrey H. for winning the drawing for completing one full Bingo and big big congratulations to Chip C. who was able to get TWO Bingos!
And no winners with a blackout card. Womp womp.
Thanks for participating along. We enjoyed seeing your FCF pride, your check-ins online, your post-WOD selfies (plus ALL the hashtags), music playlists, and completing the CrossFit Online Judges Course (trust us, we know how hard you worked for that)!
As always, we strive to make you guys better, reach goals, and hope that you enjoy the journey with us. What did you think of the game and will you play it again? The more participation we get the better the prizes become!
