6 brave souls chose to join YHC at Mighty Jungle for a merkin-heavy beatdown which included 1.66 Strava-verified miles around the beautiful campus of St. Mark’s church with pain stations along the way. The Pope peered out the window and watched in awe as PAX performed a series of exercises at the school including calf raises, curb merkins and Rocky Balboa’s. Airstream-approved mobility was mixed in along the way including cat/cow, thread the needle, and upper-body stretches for chest and shoulders. PAX made good usage of the blocks by performing multiple sets of curls, bent-over rows, shoulder presses and skull crushers. We landed twice in the center of campus and around the fountain for a scattering of air squats, incline and decline merkins and a set of burpees. All in all, PAX made two big laps around the entire campus to ensure adequate mileage was covered. We ended with popcorn-style MARY.

PAX laughed as Tammy Faye commented about going shirtless when he gets home to show off the pump from a merkin-heavy beatdown. 🙂

The camaraderie, fellowship and deepening friendships continues to be a big part of what brings YHC and many others out in the gloom and this morning was no exception! Humbled and honored to lead this morning and do hard things that otherwise would not be possible alone – Thanks to each of you who came out to participate in this nonsense!

Prayers lifted for Ultraman’s mother and his family along with many other PAX who are caring for aging parents or who have lost parents recently.

Don’t forget Christmas Party on Dec. 1 at Craftworks 760 and the annual Cookie Q on 12/16 at St. Mark’s led by Mona Lisa.

Fantastic fellowship at Waterbean after the workout included Blackbeard, Jersey Boy, Ultraman, Airstream, and YHC.

Humbly in Christ,
