Getting close to start time...

So the optional bonus lap begins at 9:42. This will be a test of endurance right off the bat. Those who choose to partake in the challenge will have to be in the push-up/plank position. After one minute, they earn a point. For every 30 seconds after that, they earn an extra point.  This is an individual challenge and no help is permitted. After that is gear check, admin stuff and then the water PT.
