Story

Thank you for visiting my JustGiving page.

'We will suffer to honour their memories and their sacrifice'

Reps for Remembrance is an annual workout in memory of the victims and heroes of the September 11th 2001 terror attacks. This annual event first started in 2013 at Trojan Fitness Bristol and has been held at Crossfit Fort Ashton since 2014.

Every year on, or near to the anniversary of, 9/11 we perform 3,000 burpees to honour each life lost and an additional rep to mark each year since 2001.

2024 will mark the 21st anniversary of 9/11.

The workout: In teams of 4, 6, 8 or 10 athletes will complete 3,023 burpees between them. Reps can be split however you want, but only two athletes can work at any one time. This workout is open to athletes of all ages, abilities and backgrounds. Reps can be scaled to burpees without a jump or burpees without the chest to floor. The workout will begin with a two minute silence.

This workout will be in aid of SSAFA (suggested donation of £10 per athlete, with all proceeds going directly to the charity), supporting serving men and women, veterans and families who will call on SSAFA, the Armed Forces charity for help in time of need.

Since 1885, thanks to the public's support, SSAFA continues to provide welfare and wellbeing assistance tailored to our Armed Forces community. They know and understand the unique demands of service life, whether in the UK or overseas, and in times of need, they help to enable the Forces family to thrive.
