Registration<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Most of The Shmed events are free with the exception of the 5K, but registration is encouraged.\u00a0 For the bootcamps, you can do that <\/span>here<\/span><\/a>.\u00a0 The 5K registration is required, which can be done <\/span>here<\/span><\/a>.\u00a0 The registration for the 5,000 Rep Challenge is paid in sweat equity.\u00a0 The fellowship is on the house!<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Bootcamps<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

All of the bootcamps are 45 minutes long and led by a member of F3 or FiA.\u00a0 They are designed to be challenging and fun at the same time, with a combination of bodyweight exercises and short distance running.\u00a0 Anyone can participate as exercise modifications are encouraged if necessary.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

5,000 Rep Challenge<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

A unique signature of The Shmed, the 5,000 Rep Challenge, returns in all of its glory for 2021.\u00a0 Participants will have almost 20 hours to complete a total of 5,000 reps, broken down as 1,000 reps each of: <\/span>Burpees<\/b>, <\/span>Merkins<\/b> (pushups), <\/span>Bodyweight Squats<\/b>, <\/span>WWIIs<\/b> (situps), and <\/span>Side Straddle Hops<\/b> (jumping jacks).\u00a0 The competitors may do the exercises in whatever order they choose so long as they finish within the allotted time limit.\u00a0 And just because this is the ultimate definition of a CSAUP event (look up the alternate definition), reps completed during a bootcamp do NOT count towards the total for the Challenge.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n
