needed recovery

Landed in Charlotte night before around 10pm – super exhausted from Miami work trip but can’t pass up opportunity to lead the PAX!

We stayed on kingsley campus, winding through the sidewalks and parking lots to get 3ish miles. Every 5 minutes we would stop and do about 10 merkins and 10 low slow squats both with the rucks on.
