COT

Moleskin:
– Very solid effort by all the pax. This was a tough one that included 100 Burpees, close to 200 merkins and about 2 miles of running.
– Honey ___, various name changes were discussed for Honey Bee who had to depart after the KB pre workout. Given that he ran at 0500, perhaps Honey Beast is in order.
– Nice to have Hops back at Stonehenge as well as a special Kotters to Lex Luthor. LL is Qing the next Stonehenge and was defeintely in strong form.
– Overheard several pax commenting that they were anxius for Christmas to be over so that we would have a new theme. #workoutjustified
– Tclaps to Mighty Mite for leading the charge on everything – what a beast!

Announcements:
