15 PAX (13 to start and 2 late-comers) shook off the cold temps on this Veteran’s Day, the first sub-freezing day of the season. Today was also the last day of Carpex Respect Week, as week full of respect-age Qs, so I was honored to bring some of that to our brothers in Raleigh. As always, my goal was to make the workout Whiplash-worthy, but also to keep us moving on this chilly morning. Here’s what we did:
