PAX draw a card from the bucket which specifies the exercise and # of reps and mode of transport. PAX do exercise every 5 yards to the 50 yard line with mode of transport in between. Once at 50, run back to bucket for next round. Made it through 5 rounds including lots of merkins, crawl bears, shoulder taps, burpees and other fun activities. Lots of complaining by all!
