Impressive work by the pax this morning. Not much mumblechatter, but it might have been because the pain was being delivered by one of the least vociferous pax. YHC hopefully delivered some quiet pain. Initial feedback is that pain was sufficiently delivered (especially with the hands free burpee ladder). We did a little more running than usual at Centurion (which Bratwurst was thankful for).
Long Distance was sporting his snappy jogging suit again. It must have inspired him because he had the pax crying for mercy when leading the “J Lo” during some plank work. YHC is very thankful for all the encouragement for his first “full” Q. Look forward to leading again soon.
