Each pole had a letter composed of the site THEYARD, but the letters were scrambled to ensure misery and extended running between poles. Most of us got two rounds under each pole.

Side straddle hops

THE THANG: part 1 – partner up and either people’s chair or BTTW while partner 2 runs to the end of the lot and back. 3 rounds

Part 2 – Blimps at the light poles

At each pole pax added an exercise on the way up and dropped one on the way down. Burpees were never dropped – just because

5 – Burpees
10 – Lunges
15 – Incline Merkins
20 – Merkins (Modified to CDD’s on the downhill portion)
25 – Pulse squats AKA Monkey jumpers
30 – Squats

Two lessons from Seneca shared at the top of the hill

1 – we suffer more in our imagination than in reality

2 – he who suffers before it is necessary suffers more than is necessary.

How often in our lives do we let our perception of events influence us poorly? Our response is all we control – the event doesn’t care how we feel about it.

After 11 light poles worth of “fun”……back to COT

MARY: Just enough time for protractors and rosalitas with just a few hello dolly’s. That took pax to 0715
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Many – read your newsletter
COT: 5th core principle

Thanks for the call, Float Bridge. Honored to lead. :eye:
