Sack of poo

Ruck 3 1/4 miles at sub 18 minute pace (3 laps around Kingsley)
Stop for 50 step ups and 10 merkins each lap in front of Carolina Ale House.

Of particular note: there are a lot of poo bags in front of LPL. It seems that some of the locals go through the trouble of bagging their dog poo, but just leave the bags around. Perhaps a community cleanup/beer run is in order?

Some Shield lock bros were walking around holding hands. It was adorable.

Spooky Halloween Dance Party

Today at the Ballroom, we took the AO name seriously and had a Halloween dance party. All movements were done in cadence with the music. The list of movements were as follows, and the order was totally arbitrary.

Step touch
SSH
Thrillers
Overhead claps with step touch
Hillbilly walkers
Side straddle hops
Jumping lunges
Grave diggers
Imperial walkers
Merkins
LBCs
Squats
Zombie walks
Mountain climbers
Bomb jacks
Shoulder taps
Plank jacks
Speed skaters

As always, I disclaim “anything you say can and will be used against you”. I exercised this statement to throw in some burpees by popular request.

at the call of “aaaand that’s 6 O’clock”, some PAX were surprised that we were already finished.
