- With an FNG present, YHC found it prudent to start with a COP to introduce the pax to the exercises we would be performing in the circuit. Original plan was to work the circuit all the way down to 5 but the initial COP was more important. Q’s need to remember to keep the pax present in mind as they call out their exercises and explain proper technique when necessary
- Hammer was happy to host Luke Porter, local cartographer for the Forestry Commission here in town. Possible nicknames included Schiano, O’Leary but we landed on TomTom as an obvious cartography reference.
