The Thang:
Building off a face melting Abacus Q from last month, this is what went down:
Each HIM had a Ruck or coupon 30-40lbs
Run 1 mile with weight on your shoulder.
100 push presses taking the sandbag to the left and right shoulder.
Every lift over head = 1 rep.
200 steps of lunges (100 / leg). Chest carry the sandbag.
300 reps but combine 150 reps of situps (chest carry) and 150 squats of sandbag to complete the 100, 200, 300 rep cycle.
Run 1 mile with weight on your shoulders.
We had minimal mumblechatter on this one, but really solid team cohesion. We broke up reps, called numbers together, and took out fair share of 10 counts. That said, HIMS’s held their weight through all reps and transitions without a break.
For the final mile, HIM’s took care of each other, we stayed together, we circled back to bring in the team as a unit, and as Q, I was very proud. This was a special WO.
COT:
Announcements: BO in Crestwood on Tuesday to test run planting a new County flag. Prayers up for Airplane, Jolly, and Valdez families. We were spent so I shared some brief parting thoughts and thanks to the HIM’s and we rolled out to coffeteria.
It was an honor.
