Basics of this workout copied but modified from another online backblast.  That’s why we post them men … accountability and flattery by imitation.
Moment to recognize all those who have served or continue to serve in the armed forces.

COT
Moleskin:
Great to focus on the meaning of Veteran’s Day.  Kotter to Bubbles and always great to have Gastone visit his roots.
Final count of PAX was 11 which matched the day.
Living in America by James Brown is a really long song.  The final “I Feel Good” was followed by a collective “thank goodness.”
Missed some of the Martha’s House regulars, but glad to see our educators represent on their day off!
Great work everyone.  Solid effort!
