14 Strong men mocked their internal alarm clock and appeared out of the Gloom for the traditional Monday morning beat down a/k/a The Matrix.

Partner up and meet in Turn 1
Prohibition pulled double duty as Partner 1 and crash test dummy when he was used to demonstrate many of the exercises
1st Called Exercise
Partner 1 assumes plank position while Partner 2 planks with feet on P1’s back. Called exercise was for P1 to perform merkins for 1 minute (60 short seconds). Jeers were heard almost immediately and YHC can only assume there was jellylubing happening as a result. An audible was called on exercise 1 shortening the merkins to 30 seconds. When time was called, both partners completed 1 lap around the track. Flapjack upon return and complete a lap when time was called.
2nd called exercise
P1 to plank and P2 to perform 25 balance lunges (each leg). Complete 1 lap when done.
Flapjack & complete a lap when done
3rd exercise
P1 in a plank while P2 performed 25 derkins (feet on back of P1). Complete 1 lap after 25 derkins
Flapjack & complete a lap when done
Regroup and head to school for People’s Chair.
P1 help People’s Chair while P2 planked with right arm high for 60 seconds. Flapjack when time was called
Rinse & Repeat except P2 planks with left arm high.
Active recovery = P1 performs 15 big boy sit-ups while P2 planks holding feet. Flapjack
All 14 men grabbed space on the wall for People’s Chair with 50 air presses (in cadence)
Mosey back to cars for Mary. YHC might have heard someone mention “that’s a lot of Mary”.
