The Thang:
We hit Roanoke Park in rapid fashion on Thursday morning. The knee-high socks grass of Roanoke Park honored everyone’s favorite absent Bermudan. Later on that day, the amber waves of grain fell as the Lost Mowing Crew Number 9 returned for its annual service to our beloved filled-in creek bed.

Brilliant Subcommittee Report from Fungo per YHC Request:
MH –
As per your request, we completed 133 burpees this morning by my count:
Full burpees: 98
Abbreviated burpees: 35
In terms of a pro forma projections, if we had completed full man-makers (as opposed to lady-makers), we arguably could push the count to closer to 150.
We should consider peeling the onion a bit here to determine what exactly constitutes a “burpee.” Not trying to boil the ocean, but achieving greater line of sight into fitness best practice would drive win-win gain-sharing, accomplishment of top line objectives, and right-sizing of workouts for optimal performance delivery.

That’s all.
