A convergence of work, travel, and fartsack events had conspired against YHC. The result – YHC had been absent from the Thicket for months. On top of absentia, YHC had just been on family vacation in Denver for well over a week. Suffering from jet lag and an extra 5 vacation pounds were no excuse for not Qing the Thicket (the original Briar Chapel / Chatham County site). The intent would be to craft a workout that would be tough for all and survivable for YHC.  

Three to four PAX did pull-ups and burpees. No FNGs, but YHC reminded the PAX to go at their own pace. Given vacation season, we didn’t need any injuries.  Counterama yielded 21 PAX. 1 PAX snuck in late to make it 22.
