About this Event
Join us for CHAD1000X Virginia Beach!
The Step Up Foundation presents the hero workout “CHAD10000X” in honor of Navy SEAL Chad Wilkinson who died by suicide on October 29, 2018, due to the effects of numerous deployments and brain blast wave injuries. Join us in honoring Chad’s life and legacy, as well as the many others, and to raise awareness for suicide prevention.
Our goal is to change the narrative concerning the number of veteran suicides by dramatically expanding awareness regarding the effects of brain blast injury, traumatic brain injury and post traumatic stress. The Step Up Foundation raises funds to provide support of programs dedicated to the research and treatment of these injuries while honoring the sacrifice made by our service members. To date, the organization has donated over $620,000 to programs that actively treat veterans brain and mental health.
Three heats will be ran at 8:00, 9:45, & 11:30
Several organizations in the fight with us will be on site. Be sure to stop by and check out the great work they are doing.
CHAD 1000X
The Workout
1,000 box step-ups completed as a team, partner or individual for time.
3 OPTIONS:
1. Slick/Beginner // No rucksack. You pick the height of the step-ups.
2. Standard/Intermediate // 30#/20# rucksack. You pick the height of the step-ups.
3. Expert // 45# rucksack. Use 20″ box for step-ups.
“Even while serving as a SEAL, Chad took time to scale up to the Expert version. There is zero shame in starting Slick, or with Standard weight, or in sharing the steps with a friend.”
