Choices

The team chose flutter kicks in the surf over pushups in the surf. Cadre demands perfection. Now they crab walk back off the beach.

Counting

Remember that Pre-Challenge where the team had to count up in mileage? Now they'll be counting up burpees from 1 to 18. At stop #1, one burpee; #2, two burpees... and so on.

One down

Down to 18.   And rightly so. Stress fractures in the foot do not mix with a T3. The candidate will stay with the group to shadow however. 

No Card Game

In lieu of the Card Game after each lap, they may be running half-mile penalty lap. Team voted to do one with rucks, to trade for a penalty lap later. It pays to be a winner here.

Penalty lap

The team is experiencing what a penalty lap feels like. It's a half mile loop, done with their ruck on. They chose to do it with a ruck to prevent a future penalty lap.  Remember that 1 penalty is a half mile loop without the ruck.  Two penalties is with the ruck.  3 penalties is two loops with only one with a ruck and so forth. 

Beginning of Lap 1: Lightning!

Cadre demonstrated and explained how to not die when getting struck by lightning. Individuals will have 3 seconds to assume the position when "lightning" is called. Apparently, it pays to be a winner. 

Buckets have been dispersed as surfaces for dice rolls. Each diceroll is a new exercise.

Duck walk, Bear crawl, Crab walk, Bunny hops, NOTHING (because the Shadow called it!), crab walk up stairs, ANOTHER NOTHING, Hops

Lap 0 done

And so is the sunlight.  Night ops has officially begun. They have a 12 minute break in between laps. Any leftover time they don't spend transfers to the next  

Success!

The team of overachievers got enough sand to fully complete the line! They have received their diceroll numbers. Lap 0 is complete!

By the way

There are 19 in the class. One was a transfer registration.  The line of sand is inching along... almost there. They might have enough actually. Which is good. They may have shaved an hour off their t3 by not having to repeat lap 0. 

Line Up

Team has to make a thin, straight line. Rapidly getting dark, so less photos.
