Jerk!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">We met at Reynolda Gardens and made our way past Dough Joe\u2019s and across Reynolda through that little neighborhood. At the top of the hill, Burlap told us we had to turn back and go right because that\u2019s what the map said. In fact, Burlap was so confident in his directions that he even convinced me, who actually created the route, to follow him down the hill (in definitely the wrong direction). Thanks to Woodpecker\u2019s Oregon Trail wristwatch, we realized our &#8211; excuse me, Burlap\u2019s &#8211; blunder and headed in the correct direction, which was past Summit, in and around Grayln, and back past Reynolda Manor. Actually, thanks to Burlap\u2019s detour, we all avoided coming up that steep hill in the parking lot at the end, so thank you for that.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">We finished with a tabata with some new (to me) exercises, like World War I Snow Angels or Zombie Crunch (thanks, Exicon!). John Howie Jr (coming to Ramkat April 19th) was the music of choice. Time was called.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Announcements:<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Lunch Bunch is Friday at noon, location TBD.

Juicebox almost always has the route typed and laminated (!!), while Woodpecker has it digitally loaded onto his aforementioned Oregon Trail watch.
