Victoria Soto was one of the teachers killed while attempting to shield her students in the Sandy Hook Elementary shooting in Newtown, CT on December 14, 2012.

 The significance of the reps: She was a teacher for 5 years; the tragedy happened in room 10 on 12/14/12; and her life got cut short at the age of 27. Victoria was a CrossFitter herself.

5 rounds, 90 seconds of work/30 seconds of rest:
Freedom: 7 Burpees into max Bar Muscle Ups in the remainder of the time.
Independence: 6 Burpees into max Box Bar Muscle Ups, Kipping Chest to Bar Pull-ups, or Kipping Pull-ups in the remainder of the time.
Liberty: 5 Burpees or Up-downs into max Ring Rows in the remainder of the time.
