It was an honor to lead at the OG today.  Nice crowd for both bootcamp and painlab. Several pax showed up early for EC (up to 5 miles) before my bootcamp – sounds like a mistake to me.  I arrived 15 min early to warm up and saw several painlabbers already getting ready and 3 runners coming in.

Warm up

The usual – SSH and some other stuff.  Painlabbers went with Voodoo and the rest moseyed with me to the old orthopedic hospital at the top of the hill.  We stopped at Grier for some burpees and at Parkwood for a few mountain climbers just to keep everyone together.  Mosey up hill to old Orthopedic hospital for some route 66.  Mike Tysons with bear crawl x10.  Upon reaching the top we gave thanks for a beautiful sunrise and then time to rinse and repeat route 66 down the hill with squats and crab walk – a real crowd pleaser.  Mosey back to First Pres for Dora up and down stairs with merkins LBC and squats.  Somehow it seemed my watch stopped somewhere around 30 mins making the workout seem just a bit longer – oh well.  Finally wrapped up with a mini Grinder behind first Pres with stacked 10 merkins, 20 LBCs 30 squats 40 shoulder taps and 50 American hammers.  Mosey back to flag for COT

Was great to see Dolph out again – He brought his 2.0 who is a chip off the ole block and the only one who could keep up with Dolph.  Keep up the good work men

Remember:

The man who blames others has a long way to go.

The man who blames himself is half way there.

And the man who blames no one has already arrived.
