COT
Moleskin: YHC has not done a “deck of cards” workout before and decided to give it a try. It was MUCH harder workout than I thought it would be. My heart rate never slowed. We also went a few minutes over the alloted time (with the PAX’s approval) because no one wanted to walk away from several un-flipped cards.
Loose Goose was strongest at the burpees. YHC struggled at those after been injured trying to reach 3000 burpees in November.
During the COT, prayers went out to Flip Phone, who lost his mother several weeks ago. Flip Phone will remain in Memphis for the next few weeks getting things in order. Prayers also went out to Loose Goose, who is starting a new business.
Work hard this week, Gentlemen!
Johnsonville
