If the Pax will not go to the convergence, then YHC will bring the convergence to the Pax. So YHC led today’s pax in as close a facsimilie as he could make. Overall the mood was good and the sweat was flowing as much as the cooler temps would allow. Burning out the legs on the wall first made many things harder, including standing up from the coffeeteria table. YHC chose to replace the fulsom prison section with 2 series of pull-ups because he wants to get stronger in the pull-up. But through it all, the pax put in all the effort to finish this new years resolution.
Thank you for following my lead again today. Glory to God!
AYE!
