We had 12 PAX for the bootcamp and (1) Flintstone came to run but since he was at the opening and the end he gets the credit per the rules of the Storm.

Then we started moseying to where the workout was to start but the Q located a male dressed in all black with a backpack moving through where we parked the cars and so we modified and did some lunge walks until the subject moved along.  You civilian types wouldn’t understand.  #situationalawareness

(just kidding….Dr. Seuss and Watts Up were on the case as well)

We then moseyed to the traffic circle in the parking lot near the left side of the school for a modified mini-Murph.  As a group, we ran to the 1/3 mark and did 5 burpees, moseyed around the lot for 10 merkins, and then 15 squats at the traffic circle.  We did that together twice and then the Q unleashed the PAX to get after it at their own pace.  PAX got between 7 and 9 rounds, although there is some debate about that.

Lt. Michael Murphy KIA in Afghanistan “Lone Survivor”  Medal of Honor recipient.  Stood out in the open to get radio signal to get help before taking a fatal wound.  Courage.

Moseyed to lower lot and did a plank ring around the traffic circle

We then moseyed to the speed bumps towards Lakewood and did a modified Jacob’s Ladder.  5 squat jumps on one side, 1 mountain climber on the other until we reverse the numbers.  We were running out of time so we finished up with some get ups and then moseyed back to the flag.

There was much more on the Weinke but weekday workouts are short.

It was a great effort and sweat was pouring.  It was good to see some young faces there this am.  Always a pleasure to lead.
