THE THANG: Mosey to the gate below the Overlook for a history lesson: Many years ago, a young man had a dream of creating a brutally efficient circuit of running and reps. He called it the Barkley. That man was Zygote. He later learned that there was a slightly less famous race of the same name just to the north. Not as fun. Total coincidence.

Partner up and lap the Asylum hill, checking in at 4 stations for different reps at each lap.

3 laps, 4 stations:

1. Squats; Smurf Jacks; Iron Mikes;
2. LBCs; :flag-us: :hammer:; Hello Dollies;
3. Merkins; :diamonds: Merkins; CDD;
4. Burpees; Man Makers; Get Ups

Sweep and Mosey to the AO with one last sprint up Baby Everest and 5 burpees at the top

MARY: She was missed.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Somebody sign up with P3 for Escape From Haw!

COT: God has given us all gifts and tools to make an impact, but none of us have all the gifts and tools. God has put others in our path to cover our blind spots. Look to those closest to you for help.
