(Floppy lead for The Starfish)

Count off into 5 groups.  Cones placed at 5 points, 20 yards out from a central cone, in a star shape.  Everyone starts at center.  Group 1 will begin with cone 1 (10 burpees), group 2 begins with cone 2 (20 star jumps), group 3 begins with cone 3 (30 merkins), group 4 begins with cone 4 (40 squats), group 5 begins with cone 5 (50 LBC).  Groups will travel from center cone to exercise cone and back by bear crawl.  10 SSH upon return to center cone.  All groups visits each cone and completes exercise.

Had just enough time to complete 1 full set of The Starfish and then a half set (5 burpees, 10 star jumps, 15 merkins, 20 squats, 25 LBC) before time to run back to park entrance for COT.

Moleskin:

Howard (my older brother) put the hurt on the PAX with the rock play.  Glad he left them a little bit of gas for the starfish.  Great turnout for such a cold day (19 degrees at 7am) and 3 FNGs too!
