• Strong turnout for Bean despite 60% chance of rain.  Solid, men.  Luckily the rain held off.
• A total of 160 merkin-based reps and 320 core-based reps were performed.  We covered just under 3 miles according to YHC’s watch.
• YHC must have been brainwashed by Haggis’ double Q this past Saturday, as the workout was limited to merkin-based exercises, core-based exercises and sprints.  It might be a while before YHC remembers that other exercises exist.
• Apparently “in cadence OYO” is not a thing.  Lesson learned.  #QFail
• Thanks to Madame Tussauds for the brilliant idea of presenting Bean w/ a coupon that he would have to carry for the entire workout.  YHC’s M wrapped a paver in birthday wrapping paper and ribbons, and attached a festive “Birthday Boy” balloon.  It was entertaining to watch Bean sprint across the parking carrying his gift with balloon in tow.
• Thanks to the “birthday boy” for being a good sport, and for taking us out.  Bean, only 730 more days until you get some respect.
