The PAX were asked a simple question before the work began:
“What burdens are you carrying?”
No answers required yet—just something to sit with.
Opening Smoke Session
Sprint up the hill, knock out 5 burpees, then run it back down. Consider it the price of admission.
From there, we headed down the path toward Harris Street and rolled straight into a moving warm-up, keeping the group together and the heart rate climbing:
• Windmills
• Run
• Imperial Walkers
• Run
• Monkey Humpers
• Run
• Moroccan Night Clubs
• Run
• Low, slow squats
We pushed up the Harris Street hill, then made our way toward the high school pull-up bars.
Mini Dora (Partner Work)
• Partner 1: Dead hang for a 40-count
• If you drop, you get back up. No shortcuts.
• Partner 2:
• 30 Burpees
• 75 Mike Tysons
An audible was called to keep us moving and on mission, so the 100 Big Boys and 150 Sumo Squats were left behind as we transitioned to the next station.
Mosey to the Band Practice Lot
Tire Work — Team Load
• Teams of 4–5 per tire
• Carry the tire around the parking lot
• One man drops to complete 5 burpees, next man steps in
• Cycle continues until the full loop is complete
Then:
• Tire flips — 2 men flip, rotate out, next 2 step in
• Shared load. Shared effort. No spectators.
COT
After returning the tires, we walked and slow-moseyed back to COT.
This is where the real work happened.
Each man shared the burden he’s carrying with the brother next to him.
Then we answered the follow-up:
“What can you do to help carry that load?”
No fixing. No speeches. Just presence and accountability.
Totals:
• 3.2 miles
• Solid boot camp
• New ground covered—both physically and personally
We stayed together the entire way.
No man left behind. No man left where we found him.
