Kotters to YHC
All All MECA BackblastsMay 20th, 2020
YHC has fallen into an unfamiliar routine since sheltering in place mid march. Parts of it are great! I’ve been a stay at home Dad. Loads of fun(mostly) playing with my 5 and 2 year olds, potty training the latter. We’ve taken tons of walks, breakfast, lunch and dinner every day and quite honestly we’ve only had a few family hiccups where extreme(as in, go for a drive and get outta here for a bit) social distancing was necessary.
Oh yeah, I’ve also been SLEEPING IN! I haven’t woken up before 6:30 since March. Needless to say the 0455 wakeup call today was rough and 12 hours later I’m paying for it.
I ran in and landed at Bain about 0527, introduced myself to the newbies and off we went to the Bain School Rd. bus lot entrance for Part 1 of COP

Count off into two groups.
Head South on 51. Stop at first utility pole for ten merkins. Stop at next pole for 20 squats? I sincerely can’t remember the second exercise. Anyway .. repeato until you get to the clock.
Plank up to wait for pax then mosey to bank parking lot.
Partner up. Partner 1 runs to curb and back. Partner 2 squats. Continue until you get to 150 aggregate.
Head North on 51. Stop at each utility pole for five lunges for each leg.
Stop at corner for some deep hamstring stretches.
Mosey back to flags for some lunges.
MOLESKINE
It was really great to be back. I haven’t missed getting up early but I’ve missed seeing you gents and telling questionable jokes, busting balls and the like. I’ll be working my way back into regular attendance the next week or three.
Epsilon – Glad to see a young fella out leading the way on these workouts
Delta – Remember it’s okay to show your ass to all of Mint Hill if doing cotton pickers.
Othello – You looked fatter but I think it was just the hair.
Gopher – You do NOT look fatter. Excellent work on the weight loss, sir.
Chum – good work on the early extra credit, whatever it was.
Silas – You already have the summer tan despite a cool Spring
Big Tuna – Almost always the fastest respect and I think you bested Othello this morning, at least on haircuts.
Steam Pipe – Fair play to you, sir. It takes cajones to come work out with a bunch of strangers after a major operation like you had and you’ve clearly shown no fear. Keep it up!
