Groundhog day gratitude

Since today is a celebration of one of America’s weirdest holidays, YHC figured I’d put a spin on it and get something out of it. The whole idea around Groundhog Day is predicting what kind of weather we will get in the future (based on the scientific wisdom of a furry rodent). Most of us want warmer temperatures to arrive sooner rather than later, but at the end of the day, we can never control what we get. The same is true for our daily lives — even down to the minute — we can’t really control what we get. We can make some choices to make our lives and our families’ lives better, but ultimately, we don’t have much control. So, our focus for today’s beatdown was maintaining an attitude of daily gratitude and a focus on the present. Let’s go!

Warm up: side straddle hops, merkins, high knees, butt kickers

The thang:

–mosey for an indian run all the way around the stadium
–back to the front lot for a round of merkins, squats, and gorilla walks for traveling — all the way to the other end of the lot
–next round was WW2s, jump squats, and crab walks for travel
–as we headed to the back parking lot for suicides, YHC noticed the stadium gate was open, so we called an audible
–step sprints all the way to the top — round of 4
–mosey back to the flag
–partners with partner 1 doing people’s chair, partner 2 doing high knees — each partner did high knees AMRAP for 45 seconds until 6:15!

COT: prayers for injured PAX, beer garden and his wife/family, snooki and some health checks, and all unspoken prayers.

Great to be with you guys this morning!!
