PAX divided into Pairs. YHC went solo due to odd number of participants (Soybean on Injured Reserve). Around the track, Partner 1 starts walking, rucked up. Partner 2 starts exicon. Once one set is completed, Partner 2 runs to catch Partner 1, swap ruck, and complete his set of exicon. Exicon, completed by all PAX as follows:
- 5X5 BURPEES X 2 PAX = 50
- 5X10 OUTLAWS X 2 PAX = 100
- 5X15 MERKINS X 2 PAX = 150
- 5X20 BIG BOY SIT-UPS X 2 PAX = 200
- 5X25 SQUATS X PAX = 250
PAX completed all sets and exercises with about 7 minutes to spare, leaving room for more. YHC opted to fill the time by having all PAX wall sit, rucks out front, while the first PAX in line ruck-ran to far end of the track. Once the other end was reached, a holler was given, signally the next PAX to follow suit. All completed with two minutes to spare.
