The team must have a total of eight laps swam underwater (one lap is NOT back and forth in this case) without coming up for air. Anybody who continues past one lap underwater can be credited towards another swimmer who can't get one lap in.
The team will answer a trivia question. Answer correctly and they can jumpstart their entry into the pool.
Ten back and forth laps in the pool. When they finish a lap they must get out and do a burpee for the amount of laps they just completed.
Hands and feet tied, they bob to the bottom and back up 15 times.
Some are ruling at it. Others... Not so much.
They must reverse bearcrawl up
Treading water without arms, swimming laps and drown proofing up next
Lowest bib number was 146. Two count jumping jacks with the ruck.
They were slow to get ready so they got punished, but bibs are distributed and they're ready for lap 0, the water PT!
Leo starts off with 20 points. Absolutely crazy. Gear check and admin begins in 11 mins.
He looks bored, in fact. 14 points earned so far.
Leo is showing his strong points! He's held position for six minutes now
Leo is still holding out like a boss. 2:45 held so far.
So the optional bonus lap begins at 9:42. This will be a test of endurance right off the bat. Those who choose to partake in the challenge will have to be in the push-up/plank position. After one minute, they earn a point. For every 30 seconds after that, they earn an extra point. This is an individual challenge and no help is permitted. After that is gear check, admin stuff and then the water PT.

High of 75 and a low of 63. These guys got the least-cold day of January to do a T3...
So the team has received instructions on where to park and where to line up at the new port Richey rec center. At 9:42 they have the option to partake in a bonus challenge. This can be as simple as agreeing to receive a point, or as bad as doing a hundred burpees with no reward. It's a gamble.
At 1015 they must all be lined up in alphabetical order according to their last names with their gear laid out in a specific way. This is their first task in attention to detail. The purpose of this task is to train for events that have this kind of opening such as goruck heavies and other team-oriented endurance events.
Everything today will be derived from some kind of big event out there. If you complete the T3, you can completeany of the 'impossible' events out there.
Time for some breakfast!
There's going to be a lot of miles covered at this bad boy!
Heada up, some pictures might be upside down. This is a bug with the blog software.
