Crystal clear night sky with full visibility of the stars greeted PAX, and by the end of the workout, we witnessed a beautiful sunrise. Given the Fo Ruck happened the night before, YHC was concerned attendance might take a hit, however still got a reasonable match headcount! Men want to get better!!! What can we say, lol! Introductions, disclaimers and the mission was dispelled and PAX were off!

WARMUP:
Mosey around playground and up to the overlook of the park to take sights in while warming up. A couple PAX commented we looked rather cult-ish with what we were doing and, not gonna lie, we may have appeared to be conjuring up the weather!
