Preamble:

The skies opened up at 5:15 and lightning and thunder followed.  Pre-runners were caught out in it and got a thorough soak. But as 5:30 rolled around the rain eased up and moved out. Time to go.

Warm-O-Rama:

Mosied over to the gym building for warm up as there was still some lingering thunder in the area.
  • SSH x30
  • Weed Pickers x10
  • Imperial Walkers x15
We split into 4 groups. One guy from every group went to the gym and retrieved a single 88 lb kettlebell. One for each group. All PAX got a cinder block.

The Thang:

WOD was Crazy 88s. A Iron PAX workout from several years ago but with a few modifications:   Mod 1: Move Round 1 to the end and start with round 2 Mod 2: Each team had to have one guys moving the kettlebell to the top of the hill to the first corner and return. Rotate the kettlebell through the guys on your team.

Naked-Man Moleskin:

Sometimes we are given a path to follow that we do not want. Obey and follow anyhow.  With praise and thanksgiving not grumbling.  Joyful obedience.  This I am working on!
