We all eventually showed up

WARMUP: YHC arrived early to get the lay of the land. With construction on going at WEP, and unsure exactly where the DR site Q planted the flag, YHC wanted to make sure we got started smoothly.

YHC had the pleasure of meeting a few PAX for the first time, gave the disclaimer and started our warmup, with still a few more PAX coming in on 2 wheels!

We moseyed around the parking lot. Performed SSH, LSS, Imperial Walkers, Moroccan Night Clubs and Yoga for our warmup.

THE THANG:
Exercises at bottom of hill. Burpees at top of hill, increasing reps with each trip up the hill.
Exercises at bottom of hill were:
– 10 Bomb Jax
– 20 Diamond Merkins
– 30 Wide Arm Merkins
– 40 Squats
– 50 LBCs
– 40 Lunges
– 30 American Hammers
– 20 Merkins
– 10 CDDs

We made all the way through the list, to 9 burpees at top of hill, and then decided to go back up the list and decrease burpees at the top.

Minuteman was the King this morning, making it back to the round of Squats I believe?

MARY: Flutters IC, Hello Dolly IC. Black Gold and Spike were able to practice calling cadence with Box Cutters and Freddie Mercurys.
