Moseyed up the dam with pausing to move a sleeping Mitchell through the terrain.
The usual suspects from Irvine Welch’s classic tale of addiction set the stage for each call.
Mark Renton – ad hoc leader, charismatic but rudderless. Ambition to rise above. A true anti-hero.
- Rents – sprint to the speed bump, 30 monkey humpers in cadence, sprint to the “cone”, 20 squat thrusts, sprint to the circle, 20 burpees
Simon Williamson – Sickboy – treacherous narcissist but an otherwise good bloke. Obsessed with the one true 007: Sean Connery
- 10 Perfect Merkins
- 20 Perfect Lunges
- 20 Slow Freddies
Daniel Murphy – Spud – faithful and clueless. Uncommon energy under pressure though he will notably shit the bed.
- 10 Superman Bananas
Francis Begbie – total psychopath. Gets off on others pain. Favorite word: See U Next Tuesday
- Crunches of the little baby variety – 20 in cadence
- Up downs – 10ish
- Nipplers – 20 in cadence
- Thrusters – with a rock 20 OYO
Tommy – superiority complex derived solely from not being addicted to smack. Tragically dies from toxoplasmosis after contracting the Human Immunodeficiency Virus.
- Deck Squats – on your six, WW2 to rock overhead (avalanche), back to seated with enough momentum to transition to a low squat (while facing downhill), stand to overhead press, reverse. 15 total.
Moseyed back to the flag where Rio took over the Q:

Jump Squats
Irkins
“Nightclubbing” – Iggy Pop
COT:
Anthony & Rob, Aunt Jane all battling cancer.
