Enter Sandbag Challenge 2019

Sunday, April 28th, 2019

Lido Beach, New York

This year will mark the 4th Annual Enter Sandbag Challenge on Sunday, April 28th in Lido Beach, NY. What started as a group of buddies going thru a grueling workout in a backyard, has turned into a bigger group of buddies doing the same grueling workout on the beach, with a families and friends in tow, all while raising money for a great cause. This year, this year the event will expand to 15 teams or greater.

The Enter Sandbag Challenge is meant to serve as a reminder of the hard work and sacrifice our military regularly endures. The 35lb sandbag is a nod to the weight, both figurative and literal, that those in the Armed Forces continuously bear on our behalf.

Enter Sandbag Challenge

The challenge will be performed in teams of 2. Each team will have one 35lb sandbag that cannot be put down for the duration of the event. Teammates can divide the work however they want, but only one member can be working at a time. The teams must complete the runs together, and their time will not stop until both teammates cross the finish line. With the exception of the burpees, the individual performing the exercise will be the one holding the sandbag. If the sandbag touches the ground at any time, each teammate must stop and complete 20 burpees.

150 Burpees

150 Pushups
