Happy Bus Driver Day

We had nine at the Colosseum for a Happy Bus Driver Day. We started with a mosey to the back parking lot. Warm-ups (SSHs, Imperial Walkers, Windmills, Plank Stretches). Next, we headed to the light posts, partnered up. Partner 1 run to the second light pole and returned to Partner 2, Partner 2 jogged forward to meet Partner 1. We repeated this pattern until we reached the last light pole then returned to the school doing the same running pattern.
Next, we ventured over to the wall. Modified Dora – 100 Muscle Ups, 200 Hand Release Merkins, and 300 LBCs. Partner exercises, one ran while the other performed the exercises, flip flop.
We had enough time to run back to COT. Welcome Lighthouse.
