THE THANG: PAX partnered Dora style. @mayberry noted that the gloom seemed, well, gloomy. Then things got worse when the tunes started.

Calf raises, bear crawl 20 yards and back
Curls, run
Burpee, rifle carry 20 and back
OH press, lunge walk 20 and back
OH clap, murder bunny 20 and back
Big boy sit ups, run
Leg raises, crab walk 20 and back

MARY: flutter kicks

ANNOUNCEMENTS: 9/11 coming up

COT: stealing a theme from @maj. Payne, and one that the QIC needed a reminder of. Patience and grace. We all need it from others. And we all need to practice giving it. It’s harder than it sounds, and we all need a reminder sometimes.
