A small group of 7 Super-humans converged on New Bern High School to battle the Bear. Many of us had attended Deuce’s beat down at The Point on Friday, and our legs were feeling it – so today’s theme was avenging The Point. After a few minutes of mumble chatter, we got started.

The Thang:
Inside Avengers Tower awaited 6 stations of Super Human feats – 2 exercises per station. The goal wasn’t about speed, but AMRAP with good form. Each exercise was performed with 45 seconds of work with 15 seconds rest, and moving onto 2nd Exercise. The Pax completed 2 full rounds and a 3rd speed round of 25 seconds/10 seconds of rest up to the very end. The stations were as follows:
Station 1 – THOR

We finished with about 5 minutes to spare to head back to the parking lot for COT and closing prayer. Amazing effort and teamwork by everyone!! I think we all agreed we will feel this one tomorrow, but the good news is that Thanos was defeated! Thank you for allowing me to lead today!
