It was great to arrive at Adventure Park shortly after 5 am and find PAX already working out.

We started with a mosey and did our warm-up on the hill outside of Adventure Park. Each speed bump on the hill was a different warm-up exercise.

We returned to the ech0-chamber for the main workout. Here’s what we did:

• Divided into 2 groups at one end of the hockey rink
• YHC read a question from a “Family Feud” board game. Each group gave an answer.
• The group with the top-scoring answer got a regular exercise. The other group got some kind of burpees.

So a sample question was “Name something that people in Florida do more than people in Minnesota”. If you answered “go to the beach” that scored 62 out of 100 and was the top answer. Your group did 15 big-boy sit-ups (5 at the mid-point of the rink, 5 at the end, and then 5 at the mid-point again). The losing group did 15 star-jump burpees instead.

The questions included “Name something that men don’t wash very often” (top answer was “underwear”) to “What item is the most used in your house” (top answer was “TV remote”). The consequences always included something that looked like burpees.

Thanks to all the PAX for turning up in the gloom and making each other a little stronger and faster than yesterday. Prayers for Jessica and for Stagecoach in his job search.
