It sure isn’t fun running down Sisyphus in the pitch black, so we tried to hold that for the end, to no avail. It was still extremely dark…17 PAX this morning at one of my favorite sites…home of my first post, and literally in the back yard of my previous residence. It felt very good being back home, on a beautiful Fall morning.

Warm Up: Jog to tennis courts for circle up warm up:  SSH x 20; GMornings x 10; EmpWalkers x 10; MClimbers x 20; Standard Merkins x 10; Prisoner Squats x 10; Burpies x 10 OYO; Jog back to starting parking lot.

The Thing: The beast down the entire parking lot; baseline to the opening gate of the park. Exercises: Merkins, StarJumps, DryDocks, PrisonerSquats, LBC’s, Burpies. 6 inch counts and holds. 3 x 10sec; 1 x 30sec.

Jog to the top of a very dark Sisyphus:  Run to bottom 10 burpies oyo, run back up – 20 merkins at the top. Audible called on the second trip to just go down and back up. At top 30 WW2’s; Single count Freddy Mercury’s x 40. Run back to to starting point. Sprint from bump to bump, then last bump to circle up.

Mary: SSH x 20; GMornings x 10; EmpWalkers x 10; ChilCut hold for a cadence count of 50.

Thought for the day:

It’s not about us, it never was. A poem that Ronald Reagan used to kept in his pocket:

“You cannot pray the Lord’s prayer, and even once say I, You cannot pray the Lord’s prayer and even once say my, You cannot pray the Lord’s prayer and not include another, You cannot ask for daily bread and not include your brother. For others are included in each and every plea; from the very beginning it never once says me.”

Enron took us out in the Good Word.
