MOSEY
We were guided by the light of the Waning Crescent for a quick mosey to the bowels of the parking garage to get our lungs fueled up to keep our bodies warm.
WARMARAMA
The warm-a-rama provided us a chance to start a little mumble chatter. This consisted of the standards of SSH, Imperial Walkers, HillBillies, Tappy Taps, and Sun Gods. Too cold to stand around and let the cold zap our spirits. We jumped right into thang.
THANG
Mosey – Stairs – Run – Stairs – Run – Stairs – Run back to where we started.
22’s – Consisting of descending Merkins starting at 20 followed by ascending Hydraulic Squats/Lunges (whatever their called starting at 2. Each round decreased/increased by 2.

11’s – Back to the standard 11’s. Descending dry docks starting at 10, followed by Donkey Kicks starting with 1. It took three rounds for us to figure out how this 11 thing works and we decreased/increased by 1. Lots of 10 counts were needed to finish out the Thang.
