When I looked for the scale for this WOD, this is what I found...

"I have received several inquiries as to why I didn’t scale “Garrett”. When “Garrett” was posted I was sitting with my friend John Brown, owner of CrossFit Agoge, and leader of our CrossFit Kids traveling team. John was friend and trainer to several of the men who are on our hero board. Maybe it was just the easy companionship or the Irish Whiskey, but it seemed fitting at the time that those that could do “Garrett” as Rx’d should shoulder the load and do what those heroes would have done. Those that couldn’t might want to pause and consider how many of these heroes did what we couldn’t do, and reflecting on that decide what you were capable of and shoulder that load and move on.
