THE THANG:
In an open grassy area in the park place four cones to make a clock face at 12 0’clock, 3 o’clock, 6 o’clock, and 9 o’clock positions. The cones should be about 10 – 15 yards from a center spot on the clock face.

Starting from the center use a cmu and murder-bunny to the 12 o’clock cone. At the 12 o’clock cone do 15 cmu squat-overhead press. Then bunny-murder back to the center. Back in the center do flutter kicks – 4ct, 15 reps.

Next, bear crawl to the 3 o’clock cone and do 5 Tres Merkins (diamond Merkin, regular Merkin, wide hand position Merkin). Crawl- bear back to the center and do Dead Bugs – 4ct, 15 reps.

Next, murder-bunny to the 6 o’clock cone and do 15 cmu squirrels. Murder-bunny or bunny-murder back to the center and do heals to heaven – 25 reps.

Next, bear crawl to the 9 o’clock cone and do 15 man-makers. Crawl bear back to the center and do 25 big boy situps.

THE THANG:
Start without the Q because he doesn’t understand how central and eastern time zones work. Imaginary lead the group up the mountain by way of Relentless ridge. Then down some trail to the greenway and met up with me at the bike park. From there we rode up the mountain by eastern relentless ridge and then bombed down The right Stuff. Climbed back up by way of challenger to Opportunity down, back up Challenger to finish with a fast decent down relentless ridge.

COT:
That song called “open the gate” by zack bryan had me thinking about the not so good things we sometimes inherit from our fathers. my challenge was to step outside ourselves and try discerning what those are and asking the question if these things we want to stop here or do we want to pass these to our children and those whom look up to us.
