IPC Week 0

Preamble:

Week 0 of IronPax is all about getting the kinks worked out. It’s a time to remind our bodies of the challenges that lie ahead, and preparing our minds to push past our limit. Or it’s for sickos who enjoy physical punishment. Could be either, or both.

Regardless, 7 Pax showed up in the gloom this morning, ready to take on the challenge.

Warm-O-Rama:

2-3 laps around the track

The Thang:
