    • YHC was almost late, pulling up at 6:28 to find Snooze. Though it was just us until 4 other Pax showed up later than this guy
    • We managed to get over 3 miles for RCR and Patriot Challenge.
    • The weather people say this is our last frigid morning, but there is a definite trust issue with those guys. We’ll have to wait and see.

    • YHC was born and raised in North Dakota, but still not going to post in t-shirt and shorts in freezing temps. JV says he had 2 shirts on though…..
    • We still managed to get 2.3 miles for RCR and Patriot Challenge. JV doesn’t think it’s wise to run after the motivator. No comment, still thinking about the t-shirt and shorts in freezing temps.
    • Having the weight marked on the rocks is awesome. Thanks Mahatma
    • Coffeteria attended by more pax than what posted. Great as always.

    • The new site has a lot to offer. The opening lap was a brief tour of what was there.
    • There’s lots of visibility at this location, and that will hopefully lead to growth from sad clowns in the region.
    • T-Claps to Heisenberg and Triple Shift for making the trek out to celebrate the new site.
    • MABA is looking to hit 1 million burpees, and YHC did his part by handing out 102 to each pax.
    • Added 1.8 miles to RCR/PC

    A late, but still effective, beatdown where Catfish comes to Kenner. 3 PAX in attendance – Fracsac, Mambi, Catfish (Q).

    Moved to other side of levee for a 5-minute (ish) timed exercise. PAX did 5 8-counts @ bottom of levee, then ran backwards up levee for 5 Dr. Ws at the top. Got through about 5 rounds of this, then went back down to north side.

    Got on our sixes for a round of Bruce Lee (Hammers, Leg Lifts, LBCs, Crunchy Frog, Penguins, and 100s). Did another 5-minute round of 10 EMOM burpees, then finished out with the Motivator.

    Frosty morning at the Renny with 7 PAX: Heisenberg, Hokie Pokie, Tool, Fracsac, Pop Tart, Dax, and Catfish (Q).

    Started with Abe Vigodas, Grass Grabbers, and SSH, then warmed up the legs with a round of the Motivator. Threw in some Imperial Squat Walkers for good measure. Moved to faces for Peter Parkers and Plank Jacks.

    Moved on to five minutes of ten EMOM burpees (50 total). Went back to faces for Peter Parkers and Mountain Climbers. Back to feet for 8-counts.

    Moved to the fountain for Dips, Bulgarians, Derkins, Bulgarians (other leg), and Irkins. Once done with this, got another 5 minutes of EMOM burpees in.
