A) Race: 10 burpees and a lab around the obelisk. Plank in order of finish.

B) White elephant gift exchange. In the order of finish, PAX called an exercise for all PAX (10 reps), and then grabbed a gift from the center or stole one from another PAX. Each gift could be stolen up to three times. I ended up with two pickles that play music; I am thrilled.
