32 Pax kicked the FS in the teeth and started the week the only way they know how: with a solid downpainment in front of the shovel flag at DMZ.
The Thang:
Mosey to the Church parking lot, down the hill, backwards run up the hill to COP
COP:
SSH x20
IW x20
Mosey to the breezeway for the modified Murph (kudos to Gangsta Mouse for the workout idea – it was a crowd-pleaser at Governator in June)
Partner up
Partner 1 runs a lap down the hill, around the church, and back up to the breezeway, while Partner 2 does dips x 10, merkins x20 and squats x30.
Flapjack and repeat 10x for a total of 100 dips, 200 merkins and 300 squats and ~2 miles of running
Mosey back to the parking lot for plank-o-rama (regular, right arm & leg high, regular, left arm & leg high, regular, six inches)

Dolly x20
LBCs x20
Rosalita x20
Protractor
10 burpees oyo (crowd-pleaser)
Mosey back to the parking lot at the park for COT.
Close with Ball of Man and a strong closing prayer from Cuda.
Moleskin:
I appreciate the opportunity to lead such a fine group of men with a blend of Area 51 and Metro Pax. My original plan for this morning involved using the football field at Carmel Road Park. Once I realized how dark it was out there, I quickly called the audible to a variation of my favorite workout, the Murph. Credit goes to Gangsta Mouse for introducing this variation to the G spot pax in June. Hopefully you were all as smoked by the end as YHC was.
