From Chris Holt, owner of CrossFit Threshold in Miami & a good friend of ours

"Hi Everyone,

Our community has lost someone so special it's difficult to write this actual message.

Her name was Analise Dlugasch. This past thanksgiving, she choked on a chicken bone in a restaurant and went into cardiac arrest. They managed to bring her back but she may have been without oxygen for 10 or more minutes. Since then she's been in a chemically induced coma. She just passed away yesterday. She was 25 years old.

When she first went into the hospital, I programmed a workout designed around her birthday and her favorite movements. We have trained this girl since she was a young teenager and her entire family goes to our gym. She was the oldest of three daughters of Phil and Lucie Dlugasch.

Words cannot describe how senseless and tragic this whole situation is but if would really mean the world to myself but more importantly to Analise's family if you all could program this workout in your gyms."

So of course the workout for Saturday is:

 "Analise"
Six rounds for time of:
 Run 200 meters
  20 Swings (55/35)
   20 Burpees

Perform it solo or partner up.
