Conditions: A little cool and windy, but otherwise pleasant.
Four PAX made it out to the snakepit for a cardio heavy Donatello Q. YHC would like to insert some witty comments about the Q, but I’m smoked. I’ve got nothing to say except the PAX put in some SOLID work this morning.

Erector finally joined us. YHC will take some responsibility for his tardiness. Given Erector is YHCs’ brother-in-law and YHC has been putting the EH on him for a while, I’ll take responsibility for not reminding him of the start time.

Prayer – Donatello
Normally the backblast would end here, but Erector was all dressed up with nowhere to go. Although YHC was smoked from the previous hour, IamF3rd (most of the time anyway). Erector is a former Marine with a tour in Afghanistan and an active deployment in Africa under his belt. YHC couldn’t let him work out alone – so we rinsed and repeated the entire workout.
In the spirit of full disclosure, YHC had to lower the reps on the merkins the 2nd time around on the track. Instead of finishing off with plyo-push ups and overhead press we finished up with 30 alternating fire flips.

Now – we are done and YHC needs a nap.
We were all too smoked to chit chat about announcements……
