IF you don't know what it is.................Let me explain.

This year it has been decided that each sports team would participate in a red wolf challenge!-----> Here is the IUE boys performing theirs: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QwMzgy2F-NQ

The volleyball team completed theirs and from the remarks of my roommate Lauren Crump it was pretty tough!!

The track teams Red Wold Challenge is set for October 22nd at 4:00pm

I would be lying if I said I wasn't nervous about it, I am a very competitive person so I have no choice but to go all out. I wish all my teammates the best of luck

Here is a little bit of what the challenge will look like:

This will be a timed event.  The expectation is this test can be completed in 35 minutes or less. Here are the activities to complete:

1)      Deadlifts- appropriate weight- 10 reps

2)      30 Medicine ball crunches

3)      10 medicine ball tosses over back board

4)      Shuttle runs- 5 x 15 seconds

5)      Jail house pushups 10 reps

6)      ½ mile jog around Hayes Hall

7)      20 Up downs

8)      Throwers- 5x40 yard sprints up-hill sprinters and hoppers- 8x40 yard sprints uphill

9)      Box jumps x 20 reps

10)   Sledge hammer- knock off first tire and reset it.
