Twelve Days of Bah Humbug

Twelve Days of Bah Humbug

Aye. 13 strong men came out in the early gloom to celebrate the Twelve Days of Christmas – Stonehenge style. It was an appropriate workout given that Saturday was literally 12 days from Christmas. Here is how it went down.

The Thang
– This year the “12 Days” workout was on the run, meaning the pax ran from point to point stopping for the various exercises.

COP
– No proper COP, although I did suggest the pax stretch a bit before heading out.

– Day 2: two dozen Merkins
– Day 3: three Squats
