Hello, is there anybody out there?

Leave a comment

Little chilly and light on numbers, but we did have a guest from North Atlanta, Man Tooth. He said he knows the infamous, Longshanks.
Simple route this morning , run down 160 toward Gold Hill Middle. Take left on Gibson, run to teacher parking lot, back up the hill and return to COT. I had a bright idea of doing some hill repeats, but it was just and idea.
Great job everyone!

WARMUP: Peta lead the group with a slow and steady warmup. Windmills, Imperial Walkers, Hillbilly Walker, and SSH.
THE THANG: Half Shell took a mosey and we stayed near the original parking lot for a 12 days of Christmas session which included 1 location for merkins and another location for big boys with running between them. We missed 4 and 6, so we had to sprint those laps, and got to 9 before Grassy took over. We took a mosey to Walgreens for some reindeer games. Taken from F3 Cherokee from 2018, there was a list of all Santa’s reindeer and each one had a different exercise. We had already sung songs together and now the mumblechatter chatter really took over. We counted in Spanish, then German and there a lot of trivia about Home Alone 2. After getting through the reindeer games, we took a mosey back to COT
MARY: Peta took us through some exercises and finished up our workout.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: OAs closed Tuesday for Christmas Eve workout and D2D
COT: Prayers for family, passing of loved ones, loss of jobs, travel, healing and kids.
