WARMUP: SSH, Merks, Cherry Pickers, LBCs, Squats, Over-head Claps, and …..a slow mosey.
THE THANG: Multiple Pain Stations all completed in cadence- 3 sets at each location ( varying reps) – Pax took turns leading the cadence. Preceded by a skill challenge:
Free throws were mixed in for the Pax – Basketball and a Hoop at the Yard were made available for a random testing of the Pax skills at the free throw line.  Penalties for missed shots were Bigboys, Squats and Merks.  6 Pax shot – with only Dojo sinking the shot.  Penalty sets completed w some mumblechatter.
Mosey to the turf football field where Barry took the Q stick and led the group on a 100 yd scoring drive with only mins left in the beat down.  
A bevy of bear crawls and Toy Soldiers challenged the pax in the gloom! Nice work closing out the day!
These pax started their Saturday plus 1!

MARY: no time
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Skeet shoot sign up, blood drive sign up, bourbon tasting, and read newsletter!
