WARMUP: buy in: running the short parking lot with a burpee at every light (16ish)
THE THANG: carry coupons down through the dark path to Harris Street Park. Squats along the way for the 6. It was dark, but not as dark in our souls as the return trip….
Found the parking lot, but nobody saw the pre-set lights on the basketball court. 30 tricep extensions, 30 curls, finally some mumblechatter of “we could have just done this in the original parking lot”
Moved over to the basketball court. 2 Bells (one heavy, one light) set at half court. Bear crawl to half-court and switch bells (either with the one already there or another PAX), then keep bear crawling. Return trip was lunge walks with the same principle. Did squats at one end, merkins at the other, and swings the third time.
The trip to COT was illuminated up Harris street; trading bells as needed and carrying all the gear.

NMM: not sure why, but I need deadlines to get some things accomplished in my life. Set a deadline on when you’ll go on your next date with your M, or when you’ll do something with just you and your kiddos. Be proactive about it. I know I have to; otherwise it is relegated to a “someday” activity.
A privilege to lead
