1 Pax would sprint the hill while other partner would complete the exercises.
100 Calf Raises
150 Glute Bridges
200 Squats
We completed this faster than anticipated, which left me scrabbleing for a time filler. Baby Hands happily offered his assistance, which I poorly communicated to the troop. None the less, the Pax proceeded like the soldiers they are followed their general to hell. The brave men alternated big boys and farmer carries up the hill with their partner.
Cusack Carry around the base of the hill to the North, then finished the walk with more partner farmer carries til we reached the HS parking lot.
3 count merkin circle of death.

Circle of Trust
There is a motto, Memento Mori, which is Latin for, “remember you are going to die” which I say to myself everyday. I believe it to be a more honest version of “Carpi Diem”. Whereas Carpi Diem allows one to believe in a tomorrow, the reality of it is that tomorrow is not promised. Memento Mori reminds you to not only live today to the fullest but to live this moment to the fullest. Take the chance in the life for it may never happen again.

The AAR I had with myself was devastating!
Cadence was off
Explaining the exercises was poor
Not having enough exercises to fill the time was off
Forgot to pray after the COT…..
Maybe I am just my toughest critic but these are things I will work on for the next one.
First, I want to thank Sputnik for being a solid site Q and helping me out.
Want to curse Wine in a Box for doing a ruck club the day before, forcing me to change my plan. And, Baby Hands for making me change my plans again after he wouldn’t tolerate an OYO workout.
Would like to thank all of you for showing up and supporting me on my Manniversary. This next year I promise to pay attention and learn the cadence.
