PAX: Bitcoin, Ottoman, Moonshine, Pyro, @Renaissance_Man
FNGs: None
COUNT: 5
Chilly day. Couple weeks into January, so it’s easy to get a little Slack (pun intended), but these 5 HIMs got after it.
Moonshine ran, while the others:

WARM-O-RAMA:
Chilly gazebo- so we rucked the troll bridge and paused by the side of the convention center for:

SSH
Sun Gods
Overhead press hold
Deep squat holds

THE THANG:
Part 1: traffic lights
Ruck to E and S Front, for your choice:
5 Burpees or 5 Rucked Meekins or 10 Unrucked Merkins

Rucked to Craven St: same choice!

Rucked to Middle: same same choice!

Left on middle to the Sky Sail ramp: one more set (so, 20-40 reps by this point, 20 Burpees for YHC)

Part 2: Partner Work
We rucked up the ramp and down the stairwell
At the bottom we partnered up for:

Partner A: 1 flight of rucked stairs
Partner B: bent over ruck rows OR burpees
Rinse and repeat

Quick ab break to catch our breaths:
Heel touches
Pickle pointers

Round 2:
Partner A: 1 flight of rucked stairs
Partner B: curls OR burpees
Rinse and repeat

Ab break for LBCs and dying toy soldiers (this one’s so good, you’ll have to ask Bitcoin for details)

Round 3:
Partner A: 1 flight of rucked stairs
Partner B: Merkins OR burpees
Rinse and repeat

Gassed, we rucked back to Middle and S Front for burpees vs. Merkins

On the way to Craven St, Bitcoin was a real HIM and did some trash pickup, so the next stop offered Squats as well, but alas no one bit.

Moonshine caught up with us from his run and we all moved to the troll bridge for:
5 burpees on my down
10 Merkins on my down

Ruck back to the gazebo for:

MARY:
15 World War II’s.
Out of oxygen and out of time!

We counted, named, and prayed.
Prayers for Bitcoin who starts a new role with First Citizens today!

Love you fellas, mean it,
-Pyro
