In summer 2018, a rescue mission in the treacherous confines of a flooded Tham Luang cave complex in Thailand saved all 12 boys and their soccer coach who were trapped deep within. It ended a grueling, 18-day ordeal that claimed the life of an experienced volunteer diver, former Navy SEAL, Saman Kunan.
On Friday, July 6, 2018, Saman, 38, lost consciousness from a lack of oxygen on his way out of the Tham Luang cave complex after delivering supplies to the missing group.
Coaches at Crossfit Chiang Mai created this “Saman” hero WOD in his honor. The workout explained is:
- 8 rounds because the kids were 3.2 km inside the cave 400m x 8 = 3.2 km
- 13 for the boys and their coach
- 17 for the how long they were trapped inside the cave

The 15th of July 2018 will mark the 11th anniversary of the passing of Brendan Hurst (Hursty). For those that don’t know, Brendan was the partner of Coastal CrossFitter and good friend Tanya Cashin, and father to their son Max.
Brendan was killed on the 15/07/07 while serving in Iraq as a civilian contractor training local police officers as a result of injuries sustained during an ambush on the outskirts of Bagdad.
Brendan had previously served as a Police Officer in the Queensland Police Force for over 15 years and was highly regarded and respected by his colleagues. Sadly, Max was only a few weeks old when Brendan passed away. He is survived and will always be in the hearts of Tanya and Max.
It is our honour to be conducting a Memorial WOD for Brendan and would love to see maximum attendance and effort on this day.
In anticipation of a quiet day before Hursty on Saturday, today’s sessions will be open gym format.
We are happy to provide you with ideas or you can do your own choice of workout or skills and drills.
Start and finish times for sessions will be as per normal but you can turn up any time during those periods.
