Improv Merkins (name may need work) – similar to Countdown Clock (name check), but instead of counting the number with each merkin, PAX come up with the next word in a sentence/story. If the story is related to sharting in the ocean before a big race, you’re probably doing it correctly.

Fun, small crew that really wanted to get after it this morning. There’s nowhere to hide in a group of four and that’s the best type of peer pressure. Obviously we want these workouts to grow, which they will as the weather turns – but I cherish the bonds that are forged in these smaller groups.
Coffeeteria led to a great convo with RAT, where I walked out feeling grateful for the type of people this waking up early and working out thing attracts.
Whose Q was it anyway, indeed.
