THE THANG: mosey to back of Lowe’s. Partner up for Dora: 100 Merks, 200 Gas Pumpers (just for Twister) & 300 Sumo Squats.
10 partner hand slap Merkins, 10 partner Derkins (real crowd pleaser) and 5 Partner Giddy-ups per side.
Mosey to Persis wall, pax jumps out to do 5 bombjacks then 3 flying Squirrels. Ended with Jack Webb and the Q was gassed.
MARY: 2 rounds
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Summer of CSAUPs, FM Care Center lawn care

What a glorious humid day to be amongst the Pax. Honored and humbled by the great turnout.

The Most Difficult Mile – maybe

12 men showed up at The Ranch. I made sure I emphasized “modify if necessary” when stating the disclaimer. We began with a mosey warm-up with stops at each light pole for exercises. We made our way to the front of Springfield Elementary for the workout instructions. Simple workout, 4 laps around the car loop.
1st lap – burpees broad jumps
2nd lap- lunges
3rd lap- bear crawl
4th lap- run

most finished the first two laps. We modified the bear crawl due to time.
Great job by all!
