Training Ground Carry

WARMUP: Nope
THE THANG: 6 PAX shared (3) 60lb sand bags while the 7th man nursed an injury while wearing a weight vest, of course.
Make our way over to the WEP parking lot and down the trail weaving our way to the bottom of Harris Street. Here’s where we tried something new. Each PAX would have the “opportunity” to single-handed farmers carry the 60lb sand bag up to the top of the hill.
From there, make our way over to the bottom of Massey for…you guessed it, walking backward up Masses. Every PAX went 2x.
MARY: Not officially but tighten your core during the carries.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Give blood.
COT: 5th Core Principle.
