Workout Description

For time: Run 6,000 meters with a pack Record time and the load carried. No pack load is prescribed.

Why This Workout Is Hard

Six kilometers is a substantial endurance effort, and an athlete-selected pack adds postural, impact, and muscular demand without a universal prescribed load.

Training Focus

This workout develops the following fitness attributes:

  • Endurance (10/10): Endurance reflects the sustained breathing and cardiovascular demand of a six-kilometer run under an athlete-selected pack load.
  • Stamina (8/10): Stamina reflects the repeated submaximal work and resistance to local fatigue in a six-kilometer run under an athlete-selected pack load.
  • Speed (3/10): Speed reflects cycle rate, transitions, and the value of moving quickly through a six-kilometer run under an athlete-selected pack load.
  • Strength (3/10): Strength reflects the absolute force and loading requirement of a six-kilometer run under an athlete-selected pack load.
  • Flexibility (2/10): Flexibility reflects the usable range of motion needed to perform a six-kilometer run under an athlete-selected pack load safely and efficiently.
  • Power (2/10): Power reflects the need for forceful, fast contractions while completing a six-kilometer run under an athlete-selected pack load.

Scaling Options

Reduce distance or pack load while recording both values. Keep the effort continuous and choose a load that does not change safe running mechanics.

Scaling Explanation

Because the source intentionally leaves pack load open, distance and load should be adjusted independently and documented rather than treated as a single Rx standard.

Intended Stimulus

A sustained loaded run with disciplined pacing. The pack should remain secure and posture stable while effort builds gradually across six kilometers.

Coach Insight

Record the exact pack load, secure it before starting, and open slower than an unloaded 6K. Shorten stride on inclines and stop if load movement compromises gait.

Benchmark Notes

The source prescribes no pack load, so elapsed times are not directly comparable across athletes or attempts. The WOD is intentionally ungraded; time and carried load remain logged as the result.

Modality Profile

The task is a monostructural run. The pack increases load but does not introduce a separate scored weightlifting movement.
