GDiggathon Pt. 2: The AMRAP

Day 2 of the Gold Diggathon came with a big question mark: how many Dallas boys would roll out of bed for a little league beatdown? 8 it turns out, plus a couple of us out of towners, rounding out to an even dozen. A very good showing for a weekday at Folsom.

The plan for today was simple: warm up and then hit the tennis courts for about 40 minutes of AMRAP merkins, abs, and legs. Simple and effective. Everyone pushed through, even those that had to leave a couple minutes early.

Now as an outsider looking in, I am unsure of certain dietary choices made in Dallas, but the profound impact they have on the…digestive systems of its fine citizens is remarkable. We’ll just leave it at that.

Announcements: Convergence 6/29 @Gashouse, Tronmoss 5K 7/21, Christmastown 5K sign up already open.

Prayer Requests: Montross’ mother undergoing brain surgery soon.

Until later today…
