Introduction
As many of you know, the dark knight is the hero that we need to be. A watchful protector, a silent guardian. A Dark Knight.
Today, we are going to take a trip around Gotham with the Dark Knight and will have to overcome some obstacles the notorious villains have set for us. A group of hostages have been taken under the wrath of the maniacal joker. Will we make it back in time to free them?
The gloom is always darkest before the dawn and we will be testing our strength, endurance and motivation to be the hero that Naperville needs and deserves right now.

Penguin’s Bridge
Oswald Cobblepot has put a spell on Gotham. With the help of the Riddler, he has unleashed a swarm of deadly snakes on the bridge. The Penguin’s clan is awaiting for you should you fall into the swamps below the bridge- never to return again.
- 1 partner does Big Boy Sit ups, other partner bear crawls across the bridge, does 25 Merkins and runs back
Each partner did 1X
Joker’s Cove – Opera by Riverwalk
We’ve reached the pinnacle. The crown prince of crime and his goons have set up traps all across this orchestra. Do we have what it takes to escape?
10 squats
1 big sucker punch to knock the joker out.
Ran back just in time to save the day. Batman doesn’t do merry.
Circle of Trust
A simple message: have fun. I tried to create a fun workout with a story today to change things up.
Life is short, you have to try to be creative and have fun whether it be with family, at work, or with friends. Call up a friend you haven’t seen in a while and circle calendars to do something together.
Multiple prayer requests sent and photo opp took place with the Dark Knight himself.
Naked Man Moleskin
“Why do we fall?”
To pick ourselves back up.
