WARMUP: We warmed up in the lot, patiently awaiting the arrival of Mr Change Order, who apparently changed his plans without proper notice to Senator Tressel. Despite Change Order’s absence, we declared the workout officially launched after a few of the tried and true warm up moves and moseyed down the road.
THE THANG: The real work started at the top of Anchorage where the pax ran to the cul de sac at the bottom and then back to the top, pausing for 5 burpees along the way at the crest of each hill on the rolling route (@Slapshot)

We moseyed back to the parking lot then took the loop around the park, stopping for some pull ups at the bars (@Trucker). We took advantage of the terrific ballfields by doing a routine around the bases in honor of the World Champion Texas Rangers that included more burpees, merkins, squats and LBCs.

From here, the Q began to veer off course into danger zone by suggesting a series that included summersaults. upon a single demo, the Q promptly audibled (#FailFast).

instead the pax executed a series of lunges, crawl bears, backwards lunges and bear crawls.

Mary showed up for a bit as a glorious sunrise burned in the horizon and welcomed the pax back to the Flag for the finish.

It was a terrific morning of fitness, laughs and some inspiration related to One Word. Smuggler finished the year strong and promised to return on Jan 2, perfectly leveraging his 2023 word Commitment. Fishstix isn’t sure if he’s ready in retirement to commit a whole year to a single word, which makes perfect sense since he’s a day trader. Curious to see if he follows the One Word Per Day path effectively. Senator Tressel continues to live his best life in ageless fashion and in steady pursuit of more wisdom than his few gray hairs might suggest.

Thanks Uber for making BAOPS a continued reality in The Fort!

Happy new year pax! Many more moments of acceleration lie ahead in 2024! SYITG
COT: yes, old fashioned, no videos, arm in arm for prayers. Peace!
