    • 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.

    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. Circled up again for a leg ring of fire with Al Gore/Jump Squats. Then did a standard Ring of Fire with Merkins and an active plank (move leg/arm out in sequence). On to the back of the museum for Sunday Mornings.
