Q: Othello

0600 YHC arrives and scopes out the Disk Golf course never having played there before.
0610 YHC takes off on modified Bull Run, alone.  Very sad.
0650 YHC arrives back to find…no one there…yet
0655 Pax start to make their way.
0657 Question heard, “Do we need gloves?” Only if you need them, I replied.  You see, I do not wear gloves unless it is 40 or below outside.  Therefore, if I Q, and you usually wear gloves, bring them.
0700 Very lousy disclaimer and we began…

The Thang
We are going to play a round of disk golf since I have never played this course before.  The rules, which were made up on the fly, consisted of the following:
-Start at hole #1 with 10 Burpees
-One Pax plays the hole with the remaining Pax following along in mosey until the hole is completed.
-Then, that Pax leads us to hole #2 where he leads the group in 20 reps of an exercise. After which we also repeat the prior hole(s) exercise(s).  (i.e. 10 burpees)
-A different Pax plays hole #2, all others mosey behind.
-Said Pax takes us to hole #3 where he leads the group in 30 reps of an exercise. Afterwards, we also repeat the prior hole(s) exercises.  (i.e. 20 reps from hole #2, 10 burpees)
-Repeato above while rotating through all of the pax.

The exercises went something like this:
Hole #1: 10 Burpees
Hole #2: 20 SSH’s, 10 Burpees
Hole #3: 30 LBC’s, 20 SSH, 10 burpees
Hole #4: 40 Cirlce Merkins, 30 LBC’s, 20 SSH, 10 burpees
Hole #5: 50 SSH’s (yes, we repeated :-), 40, 30, 20, 10
Hole #6: 60 second plank, 50, 40, 30, 20, 10
Hole #7: 70 flutter kicks, 60, 50, 40, 30, 20, 10
Hole #8: 80 Freddie Merc’s. 70, 60, 50, 40, 30, 20, 10
Hole #9: 90 Moroccan Night Clubs, 80, 70, 60, 50, 40, 30, 20, 10
Mosey back up to the cars.
With 5 minutes to spare, I asked @Magic Mike how many Burpees we did.  Correctly, he answered “90”.  Therefore, we HAD to do another 10 for an even 100! 😉

@Talladega-BRR is calling you! Thanks for being the “blocker” by the pond and for pointing out that rabid bat on the tree.  He didn’t look happy.
@Constitution-Circle Merk’s were cool but who knew counting to “40” would be so difficult!
@Magic Mike-Way to hang tough today! #strong  Your Disk golf game was spot on brother!
@Zin-stong work today brother, good to see you out in the gloom.
@Misfire-Who knew there was a second hole #9?! #nowaterhazard

I appreciate you all putting up with me as I “figured it out” (#coffeeteriareference) on the first hole.  Although running distance was minimal we kept moving all morning.  I was spent.

Great time at Coffeeteria where we met Oz and engaged in topics of discussion that consisted of: Insurance companies and roof hail damage claims, paying quarterly taxes, and the trials and tribulations of being a Dad when your kids are super smart but do not apply themselves in school, have grown up and feel like they have “figured everything out” at 19yo, and college major woes.  Great fellowship men, enjoyed it!

Always an honor.
SYITG, AYE!
