Perfect morning for some miles and merkins! Men showed up ready to work this am. Some were even out before getting in some extra mileage. Flag was planted (good thing @vanellope had his, lucky for me the penalty monster @endo was not present this am) and men went straight to work. Little mumble chatter this am about @notoriousnyc‘s yoga pants. I guess it was a sight for sore eyes.

Mosey to the Lake trail:
Once at the trail YHC explained the plan and that he was taking one from @dba‘s playbook. We were to run around the lake and at each bunch of trees, we were to perform 5 merkins. In order to start, however, you must perform 20 burpees. Chest was burning today! For those wondering, it was 230 total merkins around the lake, not counting the burpees.
While the group waited for the 6…we did the following:
50 Flutter Kicks
50 Plank Jacks
50 SSH IC
