Thanksgiving Convergence

Kenny’s Grave was excited to see all the cars pulling in the gloom on a Thanksgiving Thursday. Disney had come to town for a visit as well as others that may not typically post. Either way, we had 24 HIM show up for a sweaty before stuffed workout.

A few men got in some EC. Great job!

Warm up:
Lap around the park with some high knees and butt kickers to get our legs loose. Carioca once we exited the track. Switch after the turn.
YHC instruct two lines at the end of parking lot. Slides/shuffles down the two combined white parking space lines then forward to the next set and slide opposite direction. Do this all the way down the go right into the agility ladders. We had four quick loops to stay on the ladders. Then we moseyed over toward the b-ball court parking area for some warm up exercises.
