Mosey to the base of Camilla. There are nine segments of road between here and the top driveway….
Lunge 1st segment, Sprint 2nd Segment, Bear Crawl 3rd Segment
Repeato all of the above 2x to get back close to home. Not so precise instructions resulted in the out-front pax heading back to the launch point, but we still had a sliver of time to use.
Elbow Plank top of CoC parking lot.
AYG bottom of lot.
Head back home, but stop for 10 Merkins OYO at each island. YHC intended each island on the left but someone suggested all the islands, so there you go.
Audible after ~60 Merkins, out of time, back to the launch for real this time.

Announcements – 24 Hours of Booty Race/Party etc.

Always a pleasure to post and now lead in this hard-to-beat AO. Thanks to One Eye, and to Egypt for giving up the Q. (I suspect to rest for his #smokebootsmile performance on Tuesday. Nice job Egypt)
We got in something like 275 Merkin variations for those keeping count, plus a fair amount of leg work.
The DMZ used to be about covert operations, but lately it is quite the social scene. An exerciser and two German Shepherds on the tennis courts, the Romanesque trainees at CMS, and now a new group on the basketball court (peer-led? clipboard?). Plenty of room for all but it would be good to see a show of strength from the faithful.
