4 minute blocks, each pax works at their own pace on a descending ladder until time is called.

Thang 2: pax gathered in a plank circle to draw uno cards in a rotating fashion. Draw-er of the card had to complete the number of merkins that corresponded with the number drawn while everyone else held a plank.
Skips and reverse as expected, draw two doubled the number of merkins for your next card, wild was 20 merkins.

Goal to be the last man standing, knees touch the ground and you’re out.
