F3 Lexington is 4 days into the Gauntlet so Shawshank expected lower numbers today. 2 pax hit the pavement for stride lite and 3 pax made their presence known during boot camp. Our AOQ, Lego, was present and homage was paid. What better way to workout with Lego than playing with blocks. Lizard Man put on a strong Chippendale showing by losing the shirt 20 minutes in. YHC, well, I was there and duly impressed by the work these guys put in.
YHC spent an hour playing with the granddaughter last night…playing with blocks. Oh yeah, motor skills were improved and fun was delivered. This was a light bulb moment for me and I realized, just keep block play simple and the guys are sure not to complain. It was toddler time at Shawshank. This was supposed to be a partner workout but an odd number of pax created the need for an audible…OMAHA OMAHA…we stick together.
Weather: 64 and humid, sticky, humid
