To borrow a phrase from our Nantan, Ma Bell, today I reached level 52 of life. A strong group of 18 PAX (13 bootcampers, 4 ruckers and 1 bruiser) joined in on the celebration this morning at our Gran Torino AO. Awesome weather for a beatdown with temps in the mid/upper 40s. Let’s see how the old guy did…
Warm-Up
Jog through parking lot over to the bus loop and circle up for:
- 20 SSH, IC
- 10 WM, IC
- 30 Merkins
- 20 MC, IC
Backward run up the hill out or parking lot then head toward neighborhood circle, stopping for 5 burpees OYO on the way
Thang 1
4 “corners” around the circle, stopping for 13 (see what I did there?) reps of an exercise at each point. 6 loops with the following exercises:
- Hand-release merkins
- Jump squats
- LBCs

- Death squats
Thang 2
Run back to the school and the now infamous wall. People’s chair until all in

As my Aunt Grace, who lived to be 99 years old, used to say about her upcoming birthday each year… “Keep ’em coming!”
YHC took us out. Always an honor to lead the men of Carpex.
