Garrett and Ross Hero WOD
Join Semper Fit's monthly HERO WOD (Workout of the Day) the last Saturday of each month to honor the sacrifice of our fallen heroes.
This workout is dedicated to U.S. Coast Guard Ensign Morgan Garrett and her instructor U.S. Navy Lt. Rhiannon Ross who were killed when their T-6 Texan II trainer crashed on a routine training flight on October 23, 2020. Lt. Ross was 30 years old and Garrett was 24 yeas old.
Lt. Ross was a member of the University of Michigan at Ann Arbor’s Navy Reserve Officer Training Corps. Ross served three years with Helicopter Sea Combat Squadron 26 out of Norfolk, Virginia, before joining the Florida-based Training Squadron Two in 2018. She was awarded the Navy and Marine Corps Commendation Medal.
After graduating from the academy in May 2019, Garrett, a marine and environmental sciences major, went on to flight school in Pensacola, Fla., a coveted assignment among cadets. She was a middle-distance runner at the academy. Ethan Brown, head coach of the cross country and track and field teams, said she was a spirited individual with an enormous personality.
