THE THANG:

Each PAX will complete the set, start with 20 reps of each exercise, OYO (unless otherwise instructed), then run 2 laps around the baseball field

  • 20 dips
  • 20 step-ups (each leg)

  • 20 pullups on the bar on the upper level
  • 20 iron crosses
  • 40 calf raises.

Return to the concession stand after running 2 laps, rise and repeat above, decreasing the reps by 5, run 2 laps again, return to the concession stand, rise and repeat above, decreasing the reps by 5, yada, yada, till you get to 5 reps, then run and plank and wait for the six.

Naked Moleskin:  Another great start to the day and the cooler temps made it rather pleasant.  Mumble chatter was lite.  We never really left the concession stand area but covered just under 2 miles.
