Twas the day after Christmas and all through the house, not a creature was stirring…not even Fudd…until his alarm went off at 5:04am and he checked the Q sheet to see which AO he’d hit that day. When what to his wondering eyes did appear, but YHC’s name on the Q sheet for 45MOM, and something about a Christmas Eve special….. YHC arrived to secure the AO and 7 other intrepid souls joined him, including an FNG, to see what special Christmas workout was in store.

Five hombres guapos found their way to Mary for a hot potato Q. The slightly higher temp was counteracted by a very cold and strong wind, making this potato slightly less warm.

It is truly remarkable how quickly a group of middle aged men at 5:30 in the morning can turn nearly any topic into sex and genitalia jokes. This morning, it took about 34 seconds for these ten OGs of the gloom to do so, and it just kept on going. As for exercise, here’s what happened: COP at the intersection of Commonwealth and Hanover. DQs, Ukrainian soldiers, etc. Burpee Alley: Run all the way down Hanover to Shadwell, 3 burpees at every lamppost. From there, mosey down shadwell, west on grove, stop at the parking lot of Jenny Maraghy real…
