Conditions: Absolutely perfect
This morning, the Saint Christopher’s Country Club was buzzing with action as we worked through a Tabata-heavy beatdown with plenty of Hot Laps to keep the heart rate up. It was great to see a strong turnout, including some returners, and even a couple of random runners who seemed harmless enough.
The Thang:
Tabata #1: Alternating squats & stretching ➡️Hot Lap #1
Tabata #2: Alternating curls & overhead presses ➡️Hot Lap #2
Tabata #3: Alternating kettlebell swings & triceps ➡️ Hot Lap #3
Tabata #4: Alternating presses & rows ➡️Hot Lap #4
Tabata #5: Burpees & guessing game ➡️ Hot Lap #5
Tabata #6: 4 Minutes of Mary ➡️ Hot Laps #6 & 7
Lots of discussion about the Valentines Day monthly challenge as we pushed through the work, and we were excited to welcome back SCOBY. Also in attendance was our friend Handshake, who brought the most unique weight of the morning a half cinderblock straight from his front yard.
One of the highlights of the morning was an unexpected Christmas gift exchange between OBT and Hitchhiker. Hitchhiker had been patiently waiting for a free kettlebell to appear on Facebook Marketplace for over a month. The elves were generous, and OBT came through with a kettlebell delivery. There was much rejoicing.
Side Note, Beyoncé did not pay for the SCCC track and field. Perhaps this is the Knowles of note for which the field is named after: https://hereditary.us/members_details?id=6207d0d950f6e33bc169fddd&utm_source=chatgpt.com

Prayers for the family of Sarah Crandall Bayliss Thompson and for OBT’s friend’s family.
YHC took us out.
Great work, fellas
