SSH x 100 (25 pushup penalty) – told the Pax the general structure, but not ending number. Got some mumblechatter closer to 75, a couple dropped out and gave 25. First lesson in perseverance.
Q’s legs were cold. Ran to the east side. Squats.
Run to end of alley – 25 squats
Q’s less were still cold. Returned to start point. Squats.
Run back – 25 squats
Ran to the south field, because YHC’s heart rate was “low”.

Theodore Roosevelt’s Man in the Arena, from Citizenship in a Republic, April 23, 1910
It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.
Encouraged the PAX to push through hard things, to persevere, because those not in the battle with us are coaching from an armchair.
