6 Deadlifts (315#/225#)
12 Toes 2 Bar
Run 400 M after every 2 rounds

Corey McGee was a member of my old gym CrossFit Inferno. Last year we lost Corey in a car accident, he was 22 at the time.  CrossFit Inferno came up with this HERO WOD to remember Corey and keep his amazing spirit alive in the Box.  We are taking that spirit and spreading it with the Gilroy CrossFit Community!!!
I know you guys didn't know Corey, but he was an amazing young man with a great personality.  He was an up and coming Firefighter who graduated the same Fire Academy as myself and pushed the limits of his abilities every day in the gym.  Corey never complained about a workout, or had a negative  thing to say he just would walk in with a smile, make some bad jokes, and leave with a smile.  Corey will forever be missed, but our community will never forget!
So today, when you're half way through this workout and you just want to rest.... Try doing just one more rep... see how it goes.  Give a little extra for someone you may not have known, but he was one of us... A CrossFitter! A Family member.
