Christmas in July

All East Charlotte Backblasts

July 24th, 2017 By Othello

Ten of Mint Hill’s finest ventured out this gloom to experience “Christmas in July”.  YHC passed out gifts of pain to everyone and they were very grateful.  It went something like this….

Warm-up
Short Mosey around parking lot with butt kickers and high knees mixed in.  Circle up near the playground…..where there is no light so the Pax can’t see the pain that lays ahead.  Begin with..
