So last night after 9, there’s still no Q for this morning.  The opportunity to lead is still available.  Let’s do this!  Show up to an empty parking lot at around 5:25.  But wait, who’s that walking over from the Greenway parking lot?  It’s Sugar!  “Why you wearing pants man?  It’s nice out.”  “I just pre-rucked a few miles and then gonna ruck home after the workout then ride my bike back later to get my car.”  Whoa!  I’m tired from just hearing what you were going to do.  Impressive work Sugar!  The cars started rolling in then at 5:28.  Overall, there were a dozen Pax to show for this morning’s beatdown.  Here’s how it went.

Much to Heatstroke’s surprise, Mosey to grass area in front of temp classroom building in front of HRMS for some……….

Warm-o-rama.

 

SSH’s x 26 IC (Had to wait on Boucher to get to the circle and get a one count in before stopping.)

IST’s x 10 IC

Hillbillies x 10 IC

Windmill x 10 IC

Merkins x 10 IC

 

Mosey to the HRMS teacher’s lot for…..

 

The THANG

Playoff baseball has started.  I may now watch my first game of the year.  We used the 4 corners of the parking lot to convert into a baseball diamond. Here’s how it works. Pax hit the circuit by starting with a single, run to 1st base, do the exercise and run back to home plate. Next hit a double, run to 1st do the exercise, then run to second do the exercise, then go back to first then to home plate. No exercise on the way back, just run the bases in reverse. Next at bat a triple, you get the point:

At bat – 1 Burpee a single, 2 Burpees a double, 3 Burpees a triple, 4 Burpees a homerun

1st base – 10 Merkins

2nd base – 20 Core Killers (each up/down = 1 rep)

3rd base – 30 single leg Reverse Lunges

Homerun – 40 SSH

Repeato until time called.

2 1/2 rounds or innings completed by all.  I believe it was Manwich who led the way and I think scored 3 rounds.  Everyone got at least 2.3 miles in, 120 Merkins, 140 Core Killers, 60 Reverse Lunges, 80 SSH, and 23 Burpees in.

Headed back to Mary with a stop at the top of the trail for, you guessed it!  Monkey Humpers!  Had to hurry as there were two cars coming.  One from each direction.  Did 10 IC.

 

Mary

60 Second elbow plank.  Heatstroke was glad he grabbed a towel.

 

Recover, recover.

 

COT / Announcements

Prayers for Sugar’s brother-in-law’s brother.  I believe his name is Mark.  Prayers that they can figure out what’s going on with his neuro system.  May the family receive support from friends and family and feel comfort from the Lord.

Prayers for Heatsroke’s co-worker, Michelle.  She’s in her young 30’s and just found out she has breast cancer.  Prayers for healing and may the family receive support from friends and family and feel comfort from the Lord.

Prayers lifted and thanks given to our Veterans, current service men and women and our first responders.

Moleskin:

Good work today fellas.  Enjoyed a game of baseball with you all.
