PAX: Legacy, Anchorman, Goldfish, Hobbyhorse, Defiance, DoorDash, Titan FNGs: 1 Titan
COUNT: 8
A beautiful morning at the General. 3 PAX got a head start with a TG10. I love the smell of blockees in the morning. Then we had FNG Titan and a few more HIMs for the regularly scheduled beatdown.

WARMUP Part 1: Legacy’s TG10. Ouch.
WARMUP Part 2: SSH, imperial walkers, hillbillies, cherry pickers, arm circles, willie mays hayes, downward dog, cobra kai

THE THANG: The PAX did exercises on alternating goal lines. Traveling one way, farmers carry. Other way, rifle carry. The exercises were:
-5 No Sur-Man Makers (8 count exercise comprised of a coupon no surrender and a blockee) -10 Bonnie Blairs (hard way)
-15 coupon thrusters
-20 windshield wipers (leg lift over the coupon) IC
-25 v-ups
-30 OH press
-repeat exercises back down to 5

Part 2: One more trip down the field and back. First, catch me if you can. PAX 1 murder bunnies while PAX 2 does 10 curls and rifle carry to catch. Immediately switch and keep going in the same direction until you reach the goal line.
Round 2: Reverse rifle carry vs. 5 merkins and rifle carry to catch. Same alternating movement back to the start.

MARY: flutter kicks, dirty dogs, donkey kicks

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Convergence

COT: It is the last week of Mental Health Awareness month. The theme for this week is “Community and Connection” which goes straight to the community that we have built here. The advice for the week is about social connections, a strong support system, and having open conversations. Good lessons for all 12 months of the year.

• A reflection on Gifts on my birthday
o Aunt Trish – my favorite relative – passed away on St Patrick’s Day in 2018 at the age of 93. She would have turned 100 this very day o Trish was an absolute gift and we shared every birthday together
o We get lots of gifts throughout our lives – and the best gifts all share something in common – we do not deserve them, they come to us without us asking and without condition – just like my aunt Trish o Life itself is a gift
o Having a family is a gift
o Having kids is a gift
o Having friends is a gift
o F3 is a gift
o Saying you’ll do something difficult and then doing it is a gift o Age is a gift
