14 PAX updated their navigation systems and found their way to the new and improved location for Honey Badger. Since we no longer have the City Hall’s flag pole as our gathering point, we all assembled around Honey Badger’s new shovel flag.
Warm up: SSH, arm circles, good morning (no claps as Knope did not post), slow squat

The main event:
Let’s check out the new digs.
The Main Durham County Library has so many potential spots for PAX enjoyment- we took a tour. At each stop we checked out the nice, smooth, clean, broken glass free pavement with five burpees.
We stopped at the upper parking lot and then headed over to the front lobby area. The benches are perfect spots for dips, irkins, and dirkins- of which we did a bunch. There is a fully covered area to protect our hair during rain (we celebrated with burpees). The stairs provided a great spot for some Johnny Dramas.
A HUGE draw for Honey Badger is access to all of the great spots in downtown Durham. We headed across the street to verify that we are still just one block over from the original AO’s location and downtown is still welcoming to us. Five burpees helped us express our excitement.
Heading back to the library, we ran around to the back of the building. There is a large service area that is well lit and seems like it would be a great spot for a future workout. More burpees to check out the clean and nice pavement.
We headed up to the side area of the library and found a great set of grass covered steps. Some single leg squats and regular squats really helped give a feel of this area’s protentional. Since there was nice soft grass right there- let’s knock out five more burpees.
The last stop on our tour was the lower parking lot where everyone parked and the shovel flag was waving in the chilly breeze.
To explore this lot we did: SSH, merkin, LBC, squat, Freddie Murcury, and burpees. There were three rounds x5 reps, x 10 reps, x 15 reps. The last 5 burpees being eight count man-makers.
Mary was each PAX leading us in 10 reps of their favorite exercises.
A quick picture was taken to mark the occasion and then it was time for COT.
There were no announcements and Bitcoin’s mother was mentioned as prayer request.
The world seems to be spinning out of control these days- there is literally a war raging and our political environment is less than ideal to say the least. While we may not be able to change the whole world- we can impact our part of the world. We can all try to treat each other as we would want to be treated. As we interact with a variety of folks during the day, try to leave that other person in a better mood and happier than when the interaction started.
Thank you again for posting at Honey Badger this morning. SYITG
