   Q: Spotted Cow
   Pax: Patch, T-Rex, Paddle Boat, Nougat, Claymore, Gas Man

   Theme: Carry the Fire (From “The Road,” by Cormac McCarthy)
   Equipment: 1 block per 2 PAX, plus a 53lb & 70 lb kettlebell.
   Yes, we had a fire.

   Warmup: SSH x31
   Stretch on your own while Q talked about The Road & the metaphor of carrying the fire.

   Pair up. One pax carries a weight in a circuit of the pavilion while the partner does the current exercise. Trade when the carrier gets back. Move on to the next exercise when you reach the appointed number of reps.

   1: 50 L/R Merkin (jump to L hand, jump back, jump to R hand, jump back, merkin = 1)
   2: 100 Situation Squat
   3: 150 Schlump & Bump (Hindu Pushup, aka Furey Squat – this was too many. 100 would be a challenge but manageable)
   4: 200 Dips
   5: 150 Monkey Humpers
   6: 100 Gas Pumps
   7: 100 Captain Morgan squats

   We got through most of the gas pumps in the allotted time.

   CoT: Paddle Boat had the 6. Talked about being men who carry the fire – who prepare our loved ones to lead honorable lives without us.

   Got our Wixey Fixey for the 2nd F
