Part 1
The pax went for a nice long mosey searching for a flat parking lot.
After forming a circle the instructions were simple, share something you are grateful for from this last season and lead the pax with 4 Eight Count Bodybuilders. All 15 pax expressed grateful hearts leading to the completion of 60 Eight Count Bodybuilders with impeccable form.

After a mosey back the startdex, we rinsed and repeated the previous thing, but this time each Pax shared something they were looking forward too. With the addition of Black Lung we racked up an additional 64 Eight Count Bodybuilders leading to a total of 124.

10 burpees. Go.

Pax finally moved to the hill to truffle shuffle up and do more merkins. Yeah, we did that a few times. Pep looked okay, but I promise he was feeling great.

Pax headed back towards the start and did some flutter kicks to round out the abs.
