A Pax of 12 came together today to work on our ABC’s. We’ll credit Brutus as the 13th Pax too since he ran 27 +/- miles over at SRR then joined us on our last hurrah for Mary. Guy is definitely a Beast!!

Arriving a tad early to set the flags (btw, the flagpoles need help), YHC noticed a mysterious vehicle already in the parking lot. Wasn’t sure if someone was there, maybe a Rabbit went to run on his own, maybe a Silver Hair had to be taken home after partying too much at Sunday Communion, maybe someone’s just in there sleeping? Turns out Rabbit @El Toro was sleeping waiting on the rest of the SRR Pax to show up. YHC felt inclined to direct him 1+ miles south to Trader Joes area where the rest of his group would be. He sleepily mumbled in Spanish what I’m certain were not very nice words & sped away! 🙂

Warm Up: Mosey to defective parking lot stopping for some Makhtar Ndiaye’s & SSH’s, Mosey a bit more & wrap it up with Frankenstein’s. Mosey back to bells & carry them towards the light. A few stretches & arm circles to finish out the warm up.

The Thang: A totally random & arbitrary workout based on 26 different KB exercises corresponding to letters in the alphabet decided upon by the letters in each of the Pax’s name. (thus the ABC title of the workout, get it? 🙂 )

After the 5th Pax & way to many “E”‘s & “O’s” YHC made an audible to start picking letters at even an even more random rate to make sure we got through all the different exercises. Due to Q-fusion we left “X” on the table undone; sorry @Maximus!! Thanks to the ever vigilant Dutch for pointing out the Q’s failures. 🙂

Cool Down Mosey, Pongo Sprints back to the Bells (new item for lexicon: to Pongo = to run backwards. This made famous by Pongo’s recent obsession with Q’g & his propensity to sprint but doing so backwards in which he is apparently extremely versed & typically is faster than any other Pax. I’m not sure why this is except that it just is.)

Mary: WWII Situps, Plank Jacks on Elbows, 1 Min Plank- DONE!

COT, Namearama, BOM

Moleskin:

@Pax: Thanks to all the Pax who showed today. You guys are inspirational & I am grateful for the honor to lead.

@Ghetto D: wow, a few weeks off & you come back with a vengence on those Sprints!! #freshlegs

@Mad Hatter: thanks for donating your real name so we could in a “Z” today……..anyone wanna buy a “Q”?

Random note- having random exercises keeps @Dutch (aka Michael Oher) from jumping off sides & second guessing the Q……..lesson learned!!!

Speaking of obsessive Q’g, @Cardiac has the Q AGAIN tomorrow. Come out & support him. If any of his last Q’s are in indicator we’ll get in some much needed stretching & even medical term lessons!
