It was a rainy day but I was joined in the Gloom by 5 HIM’s who showed up for a good start to the day.  We began with pledge and a brief disclaimer, then SSH, hillbilly walkers, and Nolan Ryans (10xIC).  And 5 burpees OYO. 

The rain wasn’t bad, but the benches near the school entrance were calling us.  2 PAX per bench for dips, derkins, and step-ups.  Format was AMRAP until first PAX completed 20 step-ups (10 each leg).  That was stupid, so next round was AMRAP until first PAX completed 20 dips.  For the sake of completeness (and because Balljoint asked for it), round 3 was AMRAP until first PAX did 15 derkins.  Then we walked away from those perfectly good benches to take a seat on the nearby wall.  Marches and air presses added some variety.  Then we moseyed around the school to the back parking lot.  Split into 4 groups for another trio of exercises in triangle formation:  merkins, squats, and mountain climbers.  One group of PAX bear crawls to the next station in relay fashion.  After 3 rounds of this, we did some carioca, high knees, butt kickers, and calf raises.  Back to the front of the school for 11’s with Big Boys and Heels to Heaven.  After that we still had time for a couple rounds of Mary before it was time for COT.
