Ring of Fire In the Rain
All BackBlasts BackblastsSeptember 27th, 2025
Meet at the new deck, then warm up by running to OCT to look for stragglers. All we found was 4 empty cars and someone stretching. Loveboat maybe??
Return to the bottom of the new deck for thing 1:
Each level complete 5 flying squirrels, 10 squats, 10 dips, 10 KGB IC
Then run downstairs and run around the block for some drizzle and fresh air.
Rerun to the bottom of new deck for thing 2:
A ring of fire on each level consisting of merkins, squats, mountain climbers, push press/arm circles, low flutters
Run downstairs and around the block again for drizzle and fresh air.
Return to bottom of new deck, but before we did thing 3, we did the Lex Luther special and ran up the stairs a few times.
Thing 3: 10 merkins, 10 squats, and a pax choice of 10 reps of something, all done on each level of the deck
I’ll try to recall what was chosen. Circuit rider called dying cockroaches, Spud called crunchy frogs (we miss you BCR!), Gooney called WW2s, Scooter called SSHs, and Cat called …………. Wait for it ……………….. J Lo’s
Made one last long rainy lap outside for fresh and DRIZZLE, Union St to Market St.
We found Simon on Market St, with no shoes on, paying Spud’s power bill. What a good lad.
Mary: some light stretching
Prayers for Mayhem and his recovery, and for Cat’s father in law.
Thanks for following along this morning. The ring of fire worked out well for a group of 9. Except when we are struggling to hold positions and instead of doing his assigned reps at his assigned time, Cat was too busy talking about carrying cases of beers through an airport.
The flying squirrels were brought to us from N Myrtle Beach. They consist of a burpee withOUT the push-up. So, while the NAME of them may be new to us, we all agreed that there’s slackers among us who’ve been doing flying squirrels for years sometimes and didn’t know it. Me included!
We missed the dick jokes this morning.
We had coffee under the safety of the same parking deck we spent an hour in. Good call because it poured most of coffee time.
Much discussion of coffee was about the guy who pulled up in his electric car. He plugged up and sat there for the longest time. Seems so much easier to go to the friggin gas station and be back on the road in 3 minutes. While talking about this, a smaller more pussified electric car pulled in, plugged up, and proceeded to walkover to his already parked, 4 door, full body Lexus. So this dick head has us pretending he’s all green l, but doesn’t wait for it to energize, he pulls away in his gas guzzler.
So yeah, whatever, Greta. You fool no one.
Have a great rainy weekend!
I love you all. Better men and better husbands!

Ok, many Greta quotes to choose from. Here’s a few….
“People are underestimating the force of angry kids.”
“I write my own speeches.”
“I don’t really like being the center of attention.”
