Introduction

Gucci clan arrived on scene and realized slight mods would be needed for this size group. Oh well more heavy stuff.

Warm-O-Rama

Standard with special attention to stretching and warming up ankles because 1TreeHill in the dark shows no mercy

The Thang

We moseyed to the Stop sign and we’re told the parameters.
Run to the top of 1TH 5 burpees 5 mercians 5 squats
Run back to the stop sign but line up in order of finishing. Mary until the six is in.
The 2nd round the 1st six finishers where handed coupons and where instructed to carry them and use them for round 2. Each round the ones with their Loads would bring their coupon to the front of the line and bestow it on the fastest 6. Then repeat.
Rules where simple… Keep going
If you have to drop a coupon drop it. If you see one pick it up. If you see one that is becoming a burden Take it.
Mary at the end.

Circle of Trust

The first few laps everything was orderly but then the inequity started to work those that were not Burdened either pushed to get to the front of the line or offered to take them. Burdens got shifted to Loads sometimes changing hands 3-4 times on one trip. YHC explained that a Burden is something heavy we should and are meant to share. A load is ours to carry. Knowing the difference is a key measure of a HIM. Mayhem raised his hand and said he needs help and that he is burdened. Prayers and F2 needed.

Naked Man Moleskin

Gotta call out my man Dakotoes. When YHC was the 1st to drop his Coupon at the base of 1TH a dozen PAX ran past it. Dakotoes realized it and turned around halfway up to go and fetch it. When the Mary slowed to hault he immediately started a cadence of dying cockroaches until the 6 was in. Constantly looking for the 6 carrying a load that was burdensome he was always there. Mad respect and I doft my cap to you sir.
