Apologies to @DintyMoore who did not get a second turn to roll the dice so that we could select the 2 exercises that hadn’t been done.

COT:
– Safety for all; support for those recovering from or under testing for medical conditions/procedures; fortitude, support, and grace for those at home with kids; encouragement for those with big work projects looming over them.
