Group 1 – at the benches for Box Jumps. Continuous until relieved.
Group 2 at the Football field for 4x4s (four merkins + four mountain climbers. Repeat continuously until relieved)
Group 3 at the railing for Inverted Rows. Continuous until relieved.
Group 4 served as the pace car, beginning with 5 burpees to allow time for Gr 1-3 to reach their positions.
Group 4 relieved Group 1, which relieved Group 2, which relieved Group 3, with each traveling group stopping to pay a one burpee toll in the center of the parking lot. Carry the coupon everywhere.

FNG Jamey, hosted by Bidet, tried to maintain a low profile throughout in hopes of achieving a neutral name, but let slip his affiliation with Zaxby’s, on which the Pax pounced. Colonel Sanders was going once, going twice, until Red Hot threw down the winning card with POPEYE. Welcome, Popeye!

HIM Mulligan returned from a tough trip to handle a difficult family situation. Respect for his strength and love, and prayers for his family. Also prayers for Wham-O’s son (age 2) recovering from a broken arm, and Crankbait’s friend David still struggling with addiction.

Always a joy to participate, an honor to belong, and a privilege to lead.
