TIMED EVENTS
To measure how far you can run in 5 seconds, 20 seconds, or 1 minute – Use a measuring tape to map out a “course,” use a GPS watch, use a cell phone with the Strava App, use Google Maps and input your route as walking directions, or any other means that works for you.
FIELD EVENTS
Standing Long Jump – From a standing, still position, jump as far forward as you can! Measure the distance traveled. Best out of 3 attempts.
16oz Can of Food Toss – From a standing, still position, throw a 16oz can of food as far as you can! Measure the distance traveled. 1 attempt only. This may be messy, so we recommend doing this event outside.
Plank – From a standard plank position (on forearms or push up position), time how long you can hold the position.
