COT

In honor of the Hacksaw and the missing flag, we decided (I decided) to do “just one more” and knocked out 5 burpees.  


Moleskin

It was a bit like herding cats. 


However, that was mostly my fault.  We adapted and overcame with slightly shorter times for the workout stations.  Arithmetic, even simple adding of numbers greater than 10 on a piece of paper, seems challenging at 5:30 am.

There was a real lack of participation in my short shorts, tank tops, sweatbands and the like.  I blame Candu, Care Bear and Best in Show for not showing up – fortunately I found at least two of them hanging out down on the pier:

It kinda disappointed me that we didn’t have more time to try my new version of duck duck goose – I call it duck duck mary. 


News

None.  Except Iron Pax which everyone talks about constantly.
