The buckets of pain made a triumphant return on Friday to slow burn. Back by popular request. Three buckets were placed around the AO. Each bucket had tickets with multiple pain choices chosen at random by delighted pax. All enjoyed.
Good chatter in the cold.
WARMUP: Lap around Lowe’s stopping 4 time for various warm up exercises.
THE THANG: Split PAX into 2 teams. Each team has a stack of cards on other side of lot with a team exercise and a hold exercise. 1 PAX from each team runs to get a card while rest of team does hold exercise. When PAX returns do team exercise together then next guy runs. Repeat until out of cards. Not super complicated but keeps guys moving together.
