My first workout with Hayden Fry who smartly waited to make his first post at The Fort instead of Chicago before he moved south. Great to have you on board!

Vuvu can’t decide whether to run or bootcamp so he got a little of both, walking with CB, then running all over the Gloom to find us, then joining for the final 15. Nice work!

Prayers for Slapshot and his M and family as they navigate unfortunate health news for is MiL. TAPs, brother.

Thanks to the pax for pushing throughout and especially for posting. I can’t do this thing we call life alone, and it’s invaluable to know you’re always there.

Introducing the Office

WARMUP: disclaimer
THE THANG: took a tour around the outer perimeter of the Manliest AO in the Fort. We stopped at what is now referred to as “The Office” where each man did a weighted pullup while another man stabilized the pull up station by holding a dip. After each man did their rep @Flounder decided to show us all up with preforming 3 weighted pull ups at the ripe old age of 76. We made one last lap around the VA and made it to the base of the hill by cycle bar where we took turns calling squats while passing a baby sandbag around the circle. Introduced the hillbilly squat: a deep squat followed by two hillbilly walkers. Then sprint up the hill to COT.
MARY: we did a few flutters
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Journey groups will be forming soon. If interested contact me
COT: prayers for schools, parents dealing with teens, marriages, work stress, and patience with in-laws.

Leadership in the six

WARMUP: STL has no warmup, well, ran to the purply lights in the daycare parking lot
THE THANG: 21’s because the first exercise SUCKS. 20 werewolf pushups in the parking lot, run down to the end of the school parking lots and do the little loop with 1 dip. Repeat until time is up.

Yes, there is NO WAY that you could finish all 20 rounds in 45 minutes, it’s a .9 mile loop. So the big exercise had to suck, and the second exercise had to be insultingly easy. lol

I very much designed this to get lapped once, possibly twice, but still see friendly faces huffing and puffing as we charged forth.
MARY: 90 seconds of flutters
