Background: This workout is dedicated to Maxton Soviak, a Navy corpsman from Erie County, who was one of 13 Americans killed in the suicide bombing that took place at the Kabul, Afghanistan airport on August 26, 2021.

Maxton Soviak, a Berlin Heights native who graduated from Edison High School in 2017, was killed when two suicide bombers detonatedexplosives near the airport gate. The attack killed 13 Americans and more than 100 Afghans, while 100 more were wounded. An affiliate of the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria terror group, commonly known as ISIS, claimed responsibility for the attack.

It was through an assignment last September to assist the Marine Corps that Mr. Soviak, 22, later became stationed in Afghanistan. His previous postings had included time in Guam from April, 2018, to July, 2020.

The workout was designed by Coach Harold Aranda @cuteeboyyy of CrossFit Hita @crossfit.hita (Dededo, Guam) where Maxton used to train. Soviak was an avid CrossFitter and also trained at CrossFit Latte Stone @crossfitlattestone and Custom Fitness Guam @customfitness.

Aranda designed the workout in memory of Soviak’s ability to elevate those around him (Pull-Ups). Coach Harold met him for the first time doing the hero WOD “Chad” (Step-Ups), where Max created his own make-shift vest with sled straps and a plate. Aranda also told WODwell that Soviak will be remembered as someone who loved and thrived under the pressure of the grind (Burpees).

The rep scheme signifies:
– 13 rounds to honor the 13 US troops killed in action
– 8-26-21 reps for the date of the attack.

A couple of months after Aranda first shared this “Maxton” workout with WODwell, it became an “official” CrossFit Hero WOD. It was posted on the CrossFit Main Site as the workout of the day for Veterans Day, November 11, 2021 (“211111.”)
