THE THANG: PAX traveled to the psychedelic amphitheater and stopped to do 5 minutes of ruck step ups.
PAX then rucked to the amphitheater and performed 15 ruck merkins, 20 ruck squats, 20 ruck bent over rows, and 15 bird dogs slick. After a 10 second rest, we performed the same exercises in reverse. Q called an audible and performed 20 reps of ruck American Hammers, followed by the same exercises minus the step ups. PAX then rucked back to the flag.

MARY: Performed 20 reps of ruck Homer to Marge IC, ruck low slow flutters IC, ruck floor press/avalanches, and ruck swings.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: 2026 F3 NE Wake Challenge. PAX must Q at 10 different AO sites to complete the challenge. So one down, nine to go for me. Gilmore’s Jumpstart January Challenge. So far I’m on track for that one!

COT: Prayers for a good new year, people needing healing, jobs, support, etc.
Thanks for allowing me to lead. Come to Cup of Joe this Thursday for my second Q of the year. It will be a good one!
