"Meerkats have been known to engage in social activities, including what appear to be wrestling matches and foot races. The meerkat is also known as the sun angel, as it protects villages from the moon devil."

Super late posting:
WOD: 16:46 RX

My win of the day was just finishing this WOD after both calves started to cramp and spasm when I started the sandbag run. In the past, I likely would have bailed.
