COT:
Many people take these 2 months and begin to give thanks. A lot of people take 2 weeks between thanksgiving and Christmas and give thanks. Most people just give thanks on the days. We all need to give thanks everyday for what god have provided for us. We need to fit into his processes, not the other way around.

See and do

FNGs: None

WARMUP: windmills, squats, LBC, overhead, seal, Moroccan, long lap

THE THANG: apparently quite confusing???

10yrd breakdowns with partners
-Partner 1 10 merkins/ 1 burpee, then run to end and call out partner and SSH till partner joins
-Partner 2 SSH to fail until called out, then 10merkins/ 1 burpee. Then join partner
-Wheelbarrow across the grass field, run back to next 10yrd marker and repeat adding 1 burpee each time.
-When at the grass field, swap wheelbarrow with partner

There was only 7 increments, so top number was 10merkins/ 7burpees

We got off course so we had to do MM to reset the standard a few times.

10 count slow mountain climbers

MARY: flutter kick

COT: realize your issues are not as bad as you may make them out to be. Sometimes our issues just need to be solved or resolved. There is always someone there that can put it in perspective.
