Back last! Rucking VQ with GAME!

WARMUP: SSH and the Kasbah #2s
THE THANG: 12 was the rep count for all work to honor LEOs including my nephew. Ruck over to railing facing the lake and some hopping merkins until we got to the stairs. Up the stairs and over to the Marriott where we talked about Gratitude and Attitude then did some Russian Tap Dancers and LSS. Rucked to Sunbelt and talked about Maintaining focus and Energy. Rucked the perimeter of the parking lot and up to the roundabout. There, we did some calls raisers and slightly inclined merkins. Rucked back up the hill toward Panera passing around <@U02JMD0EKS8>’s 60 pounder. Rucked through the quiet zone again then back for some Mary. It felt quite contrary but we did some BB Crunches, Protractors and finally some body destroyers. The PAX were very gracious and kind.
