Midsummer's AMRAP + 1


After what looked to be a great evening of 2nd F on a Midsummer’s eve many of the PAX were operating on High Octane fuel. A fuel they would call upon about halfway through the morning as there were digging deep on an AMRAP + 1.

0520 ECP - YHC, WWW, GTL, Red Rider, Frisco continued our quest to get bigger, stronger and faster at the pull-up one repetition at a time.

0545- A good looking crowd had amassed many still wearing last nights fun deep in their eyes.

Once again, we Pledged our Allegiance.

Mosey over to the soccer field and circle up for warm up

That was fun. While some of the PAX may have been questioning that last beverage they too were showing up strong on this DORA.

After a 10 count we mosey. To where? They were too close to not use them.
