We turned today’s Hero WOD into a fundraiser for the Gary Sinise Foundation!  The Gary Sinise Foundation helps provide support for the military and veteran community to include morale boosting events at military medical facilities, aids militiary members with assistance as they transition from military to civilian life, as well as builds specialized housing for wounded warriors.  All we asked was that Athletes donated $1 for every mile they ran, and the gym would match their donation. We were able to raise almost $800!  Thank you to everyone who came out today!
