NMM:

  • Everyone worked super hard today. The round with 40 reps was especially challenging, but everyone pushed through
  • I won’t name nicknames, but some pax sprinted through the gauntlet to avoid burpees, while others loitered to encourage more burpees. Not sure which was worse, but glad to see people have some fun with it.

Thank you everyone for coming out for my VQ!
