Thang 2: Mosey to the play set and circle up around the picnic tables.
Partner Up. Partner A is doing pull-ups to failure, than hanging until partner B is complete with assigned exercises. Than the partners switch, so Partner A is doing the exercise and Partner B is pull-up/hanging.

Thang 3: Mosey to the pavilion and partner up again. For DORA.
Partner A runs around the pavilion while Partner B does the prescribed exercise. Switch when Partner A makes a full rotation. Rinse and Repeat until total achieved.

We did not have time to Thang 4, next time. The PAX did have time (as we always should make time) for a round of penalty burpees. We have 1 HIM arrive after the disclaimer and accountability is important. We did circle burpees for a 10 count.

Final Thought: James 1:12 “Blessed is the man who remains steadfast under trial, for when he has stood the test he will receive the crown of life, which GOD has promised to those who love him”
