Split up into equal teams
Competition

Repeat, team with most victories puts the blocks away while everyone else does burpee apocalypse

Rinse & repeat

Finisher:
Burpee-apocalypse increasing to 10 (but I gifted the men a surprise set of 1 at the end instead of 10, so really we only went to 9)

MOLESKINE:
I enjoyed how the teams held themselves accountable. It was especially interesting to me how quickly people forget the community around them when they’re tired and doing something difficult. Points driven home: take care of each other, push yourself to work hard even when it’s easy to slack off
