Sneaky miles

WARMUP: mosey to a church lot for 16 counts of various exercises including windmills, imperial and hillbilly walkers, merkins (s/c), Broga poses, should taps and mountain climbers

THE THANG: mosey to another lot for 16’s counting down or up by 2’s – flying squirrels at one end and squats at another

Mosey to another lot for 7’s – diamond merkins, run, lunges and nur.

Mosey back up the hill to the lot of exfoliation: 16’s but going up or down by 1 each time: merkins mosey two lights, LBC’s with exfoliation and mosey back – rinse and repeat. We got to 7 & 9 and 0600 was upon us and almost 2 miles under our belts.

MARY: no time for it
ANNOUNCEMENTS: happened
COT: happened too

The blessing of fellowship at every workout is a sustaining thing for all of us. I was grateful for that this morning in a small but meaningful group of HIM.

Dojo – thanks for the call out. You were missed. Bonsai & Short Sale – thanks for joining YHC. It was a pleasure to be in your company this morning in the gloom and go 1-0 on the day.

Gratefully,
Cyclops
