It was very cold at the Swamp but that doesn’t alliterate very well…it was 9°F with a light breeze which pushed the limits of our zero degree cancellation policy. Nonetheless, two PAX swallowed the red pill this morning and posted for a frosty frolic in the fen (ah, that is more catchy!). What a great way to start off the first work day of the New Year – overcoming the first adversity to present itself – leaving the warm comfort of the fartsack.
The companionship of just two PAX provided for some great mumblechatter.
Quick disclosure – the second PAX promised not to sue YHC.
The PAX moseyed to the Band Shell to seek some meager shelter from the breeze for Warm-a-rama:
Arm circles, Huggy Bears, Abe Vigoda, SSH, Plank Jacks, Peter Parkers
The Thang:
11’s: 10 Merkins/1 Squat; ladder to 1 Merkin/10 Squats; in between travel across the stage with Bear Crawl, Dragon Walk, Crawl Bear, Duck Walk, Crab Walk forward, Crab Walk backward, Lunge Walk, and Staggered Merkin Crawls
~ 10 Box Jumps and then off to the playground for 2 rounds of Pullups and reverse rows on the swings to failure.
The workout was rounded out with a lap around the block. The final approach to the parking lot was especially refreshing with a brisk artic-like wind blowing toward us.

Thankful for our many blessings and prayers for guidance and leading as we embark on 2018.
