4 men gathered in gloom, with the way to beatdown lit by the glow of the lot’s lights and a readiness for what’s to come. It only took the call of the burpies for 2 more to join the PAX. With our number now at 6, and our hearts pumping strong, we left the warm up circle behind and headed for…

while at the curb it seemed like a great time to sneak in some Mike Tysons. 2 cycles of 10 Tysons followed by a bear crawl across the street and back.
With shoulders about smoked one last sprint was grabbed as we zoomed back to the flag for PAX led Mary starting with Beargrass as his feet were flying.

Small groups are great for getting to know each other. It was a real pleasure to get to lead this group, and introduce part of the stadium AO to a couple of stadium first timers. Note to those, there is much more of this AO we didn’t explore! After volunteering to Q last Monday, YHC had full winkie ready to go in less than 24 hrs. Then, ultimately deciding near the last minute to toss the whole thing out an play it by ear (aka MSU) with parts taken from past stadium workouts. It was fun to lead without a set winkie and made time management easier. Workout flowed well. YHC isn’t sure he could have planned it better! As for that original winkie… it’s not lost. It’s holding some fun for times to come!
Still searching for that next Pirate win! Maybe it’s over by the hills?
….till next we meet in the gloom
