Advertised as a three-hour-tour of the North Carolina Museum of Art grounds, a stout 47 answered the bell to kick 2016 off the right way.

Warm Up:

• Mosey to Open Space adjacent to amphitheater
• SSH x20
• Imperial Walkers x16

• Burpees x10, sprint to other side of parking lot, Burpees x10 for all 4 lanes in the lot
• Repeato
• Flutter Kicks until everyone participates (it took a while)

Round Two: Friar Tuck

• Mosey to the small pond near the center of the NCMA grounds for a lesson on time management
  • 1:00    – 10 Standard ‘Mericans

NMM:

• Offers to run through an additional two rounds of this set list were uniformly declined.
• Good to see a few FNGs out there.  Stick with it, it gets better.
• 360+ at the 5-year anniversary convergence in CLT.  #Problematic
• As always, an honor to lead.
