3 Pax decided to beat the weekend fartsack for a Saturday morning beatdown.  Due to injury, YHC had stepped in to take the last minute Thursday Q for R2D2 and had warned of an epic beatdown since no other pax stepped up to Q.  However, Schoolbus ended up taking to Thursday BC Q and everyone, including YHC, fartsacking and left Schoolbus alone in the gloom.  YHC decided to keep the Thursday Q plan for the Saturday BC and so the three of us tested ourselves with the MARSOC Short Card.

WARMARAMA:
SSH X 20 IC
WM X 10 IC
IST X 20 IC
CP X 20 IC

I decided to opt for the MARSOC short card for today’s festivities. For those unfamiliar, this is a suggested routine for US Marines preparing to enter into SOC (Special Operations Command) Assessment and Selection.

18. 30 Hello Dollies (Straight leg Rosalita)
19. 10 Burpees
20. 10 Trunk Twists (mason twist)

MOLESKIN:

– It was great to see Maasai in the gloom again.  Keep posting brother!

– Even though 2Step attempted to run with The Valley crew before the BC he had to stop due to his gassy knee.  It was suggested to him to take rest day but he showed up for the BC anyway.

– Great job pushing yourselves this morning gents!  That was a tough one but you fought through with grit.
