COUNT: 13
CONDITIONS:. Gloomiest day in awhile. Steady rain, steady sweat

WARMUP: some stretching, some quick yoga and some arm circles forward and back. Also 10 slow and low merkins for good measure

THE THANG: well, everyone thought yesterday was the end of the octoburpee challenge. Today was a bonus day. We started with a sequence of 3 burpees, high plank and then another exercise. We did 10 total rounds mixing in merkins, dry docks, thrusters and low plank. 33 burpees.

Next was some ole fashioned 11s. Burpees and jump squats. 55 more burpees for a total of 88.

Last was some tabata work featuring atomics, sumo squats, 8 count body builders, WWI, low plank-high plank, lt. dans, BURPEES, heel touches and sprints. 16 more (for me) burpees for a total of 104 for the morning.

MARY: a quick Mary a ding in a few good mornings closed us out.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Not a ton of announcements from corporate or the AO, but @movinonup gave us a scouting report on Will Levi’s. He was good.

COT: prayers for the Tursi family in Des Moines and Rachel’s uncle Burl. Shared a quote A heard in a song and realized later was from proverbs. “God promises a safe landing, not a smooth journey”. This struck me last week as I was pondering some sad events and reminded me to keep my eyes farther down the road and know that we will all weather the ups and downs.

Great to be back fellas, Deep State, appreciate the invite as always.

Cheers,
