THANG:
The four groups – Bowties, Double-Breasted, Pinstripes and 3-Piece – moseyed to the practice field for three exercises. Wait Time led the entire group in BEARKINS x 10 IC. The groups then divided and did PLANK HURDLES across the width of the field, and did TUNNEL OF LOVE for the return trip across the field. Lots of mumble chatter that the field got wider – 3EEE – coming back.
The PAX moseyed to the Heroes Blvd side of the Fieldhouse. We gathered against the Fieldhouse wall for 30 seconds of Balls to the Wall.
The groups divided up for four stations around the circle drive of Heroes Blvd:
STATION 1: 10 Burpees followed by running to Station 2.
STATION 2: 20 Turkish Get-ups followed by BEAR CRAWL to Station 3.
STATION 3: 30 Carolina Dry Docks followed by a run to Station 4.
STATION 4: 40 Copperhead Squats followed by BEAR CRAWL to Station 1.
After two rotations, each group did an Indian Run around the field house to the Shovel Flag.

Thoughts/prayers
*For Compost‘s circles as a close friend from high school and college recently passed away.
*For Wait Time as he works through recent transition in his professional life. We know that God doesn’t give us anything in this world we cannot handle, and we pray for Wait Time and his family as he assesses future opportunities. As he stated, when one door closes several others open! The PAX offered up a shoulder or 25 to lean on in the coming weeks.
*Celebrations for YoYo-Ma as he daughter just reach 6 year anniversary post-kidney transplant. We pray for continued health and many more anniversary celebrations.
Aye!
Selleck, Wait Time and Ethanol
