13 PAX escaped the fartsack to enjoy a little hilly fun on a relatively cool morning.  Unfortunately, some of the Cox Mill Comets also were up early to get to school for a field trip so the cars and minivans came pouring in.  However, that didn’t deter the PAX from pushing forward up and down the hill and I’m happy to report that we were all able to stay safe.

After a quick disclosure, we moseyed and this is how it all went down..

SSH x 20

IST x 15

Cotton Pickers x 15

5 Burpees OYO

Mosey halfway down towards the fields, grab some fence and do a derkin ladder in cadence – 8 on the lower rail, 6 on upper rail and 8 back on the lower rail.  This is a good way to remedy those “soccer arms”.

Mosey to front of school and grab some wall or a post for some people’s chair.  People’s chair for 1 minute with some air presses incorporated (you can all thank Oboe for that).  Follow this with some LBC x 25 in cadence.

That was so much fun that we decided to a second round of that.  Burn legs burn.

Mosey over to cinderblocks.

Warm up with some shoulder presses x 15 in cadence.

Let’s do a little ladder…at the bottom, 2 curls OYO with cinderblocks, run up to the top of the hill (not halfway Opiod) and do 20 air squats.  back down the hill and do 4 curls, up the hill and do 18 air squats, back down the hill.  You get the pattern.  It was at this point of the workout that Mr McFeeley told me that he hated me and this sucked.  As a Q, this is the ultimate compliment.  It does suck, but pain is temporary.  It was also at this point that we all had to play a bit of frogger with both the other PAX going the opposite way as well as the cars and minivans showing up.

Since our parking lot was taken, we found one of the few corners of the parking lot still open for some Mary.  While YHC went to get his phone to take attendance, Robins Nest led the PAX with a medley of Homer to Marge with additional pain exercises built in.

• Continued prayers for Pongo and his family in Puerto Rico as they deal with the aftermath of Hurricane Maria
• Thoughts and prayers to Haskell whose mother-in-law passed away earlier this week
• Health Eating Challenge starts Monday.  Details are posted on Slack.  Sign up.  YHC is doing this week and like any diet, having a solid foundation of support makes it a lot easier.  If it’s going to suck, let’s have the entire Comanche PAX be grumpy together.  I joke but the truth is that this is a great opportunity to get healthier alongside your F3 brothers.
• To kick off the challenge, there is HEC Beatdown on Saturday morning at 7 am in the normal spot at Cox Mill Elementary.  There will be a pre-run at 6:10 if interested as well.
