13 strong assembled for an old-school beatdown. 12 HCed. We had 2 fartsacks, and Big Kat gave us a head fake before posting at CJ, so the 13 was indeed lucky.

THE THANG
We broke down the Murph WOD. PAX split into three teams (two teams had 4; one team had 5). Teams had to complete the total of the prescribed exercises at each station. Teams moseyed between Stations.
Station 1 (at the top of THWM by the tree line): 300 squats
Station 2 (down by the volleyball courts): 100 pullups
Station 3 (at the true bottom of THWM): 200 Merkins
To keep things interesting, teams were threatened with 25 penalty burpees if another team caught them–that never happened.

After 3ish rounds, PAX reassembled at the AO and then ran through the stations together (24 squats, 8 pullups, and 16 Merkins each). Finish with AYG up THWM and hold plank.

YHC took us out with a message about smoke detectors and prostate exams.
