Iron Pax Week 1 says it all, but I’m not done. It was dark this morning and hard to measure the enthusiasm among the PAX, but I’m going to estimate it somewhere between awe-inspiring and colossal. Y’all were clearly not deterred by Week 0 and were ready to go. In terms of complexity the workout was north of just doing a bunch of thrusters and burpees, and also just a bit north of where it would be nice to have a white board, or maybe even a cheat sheet. But nobody thought of that. So we got on with it. We also decided unanimously (among all people interviewed by the Q) that broad jump burpees are just not a good way to get places.

WARMUP: SSH, imperial walkers, willie mays hayes, cherry pickers, michael phelps, downward dog, wgs, cobra kai

THE THANG: PAX lined up on the goal line. 3 burpees on a 4 minute EMOM. “11’s” with thrusters (10 to 1) at the goal line and HR merkins (1 to 10) at the 30 yd line. For rounds 1-5 of 11s, the travel to the 30 and back was: bear crawl, lunges, broad jump burpees, run, and murder bunny (rev. MB to return). For rounds 6-10, repeat.

MARY: None

ANNOUNCEMENTS: 364 days til hockey tryouts 9/11 stair climb.

Please keep Lucius’ nephew, Robert, and the rest of the family in your prayers after a serious mountain biking accident left him in really bad shape.

COT: The Q relayed a story told to him on 9/11/2001 by an older guy who had lived through WWII in Great Britain. Things happen from everyday struggles to major life changing events. Lean on each other to keep at it and not give up hope.
