Choose Hard

WARMUP: Run to bandshell at WEP
THE THANG: We did laps around WEP with an accumulator thrown in for fun. When returning to the bandshell after each lap pax did the following starting with the first exercise and then adding the 2nd to it, then the 3rd, then adding the 1st exercise on top of the original 3 following the 4th lap

Burpees x10
Should taps x20
Squat x30

We got in 5 laps before returning home. All the effort in continuous fashion kept the pax warm and kept the cranky mumblechatter flowing.

MARY: done inside the Thang

ANNOUNCEMENTS: D2D items and more
COT: yes!

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.
