As we gathered – Scrappy informed YHC that he has never been to MMM before – hard to believe, but great to be there on his maiden voyage. He was kind enough to bring his speaker and took requests throughout the workout. Antics like that will mean he's sure to be invited back.
Warm-o-rama: take a lap around the parking lot track, grab your bells and circle up for – SSH, Windmills, Long Snapper, Mountain Climbers, Downward Dog'ish stretchy stretch and Toy Soldiers.
THE THANG (went something like this – any resemblence to the actual events is likely a coincidence)

Take your bell and line up on one side of the parking lot.

Grab a partner. Partner 1 farmer carries 2 bells starting counter clockwise around the track. Partner 2 does 10 mericans and catches up to Partner 1. Switch roles. Repeato until you make it around the track.
Repeato – going clockwise around the track in the same fashion.

– During COT we lifted up Osh Kosh's friend as well as The Count and his family as they grieve the loss of The Count's dad Lee Robinson. YHC read about a life well lived in Lee's obituary and shared some of the life lessons that the family had remebered. Those included:
Get an education, no one can ever take that away from you; If you find a shirt you like, buy it in
every color; Always let your parents know when you get home no matter how late; Gel
toothpaste is better than mint toothpaste; Be available to listen and not be judgmental; Offer
encouragement over criticism; Love your neighbors like Family.
Always an honor and pleasure to be with you fine men.
Peace,
Holiday
