-> we started at the top and did 5 burpees, run to cones and back, then 10 merkins + 5 burpees, run and back, 15 BBSU + 10 merkins + 5 burpees, etc, all the way through. I saw on a backblast wreck it Ralph use this somewhere and he might have even borrowed it from somewhere else. It was tough and surprisingly mountain climbers were the hardest.

at all times a pax would be jumping rope. They’d jump for what seemed like a minute and hand off to next pax. Once done jumping rope you’d pick up where you left off in the Thang.

we had some tunes blaring featuring the likes of Ratt, ZZ Top, Foo Fighters, Alice Cooper, Jason Isbell, queens of the Stone Age, blue oyster cult, and others.

CoT:

building pull up bars Saturday 2/12 around 8am. Some say if you go to a beatdown beforehand you won’t be a useful worker. Kind of sounds like a challenge to me.

prayer requests: MARTA’s friend battling a sudden cancer situation, soft hands sister

Naked Man Moleskin:

shoutout to soft hands who was an FNG at hot tin roof on Wednesday and back in the gloom on Thursday at the pulpit. Also a shoutout to Cutco who was an FNG on Tuesday who EH’d soft hands!
