Warm-O-Rama

Quick lap around OCT to shake off the dust, then:

• SSH x20 IC
• IST x15 IC
• Arm Circles (forward/back)
• Cotton Pickers x10 IC

Everyone looked fresh, except Scooter, who was still mentally on vacation.

The Thang: “Knockout Kings” 🏀

Mosey to the Law Office of Joseph Plummer via Indian Run via Spring St to Union St, passing a 20lb medicine ball like a hot potato of pain.

At the courts — 3 Rounds of Knockout:

• Round Winners: El Abogado, El Abogado (again… clearly moonlighting as Steph Curry), and Hops (the comeback kid).
• Losers: Held plank and questioned their life choices until the round ended.
• After each round: 5 Burpees + 10 WWII’s for good measure.
• Mosey around the small block between rounds to “recover” (translation: regret).

Finished with a scenic trot toward Southern Strain, then back up the hill of despair to OCT. Some ran it, some walked it, some biked it, everyone hated it.

Mary (a.k.a. The Cool Down for Broken Men)

• Light stretching and groaning
• Tombstone got an early dismissal to fire up the coffee, start the flames, and prep WWF Game Day. #Priorities

COT

Solid crew today. Great mix of cardio, competition, and confusion. El Ab continues to dominate any sport involving a ball. Tombstone and Hops may or may not have turned knockout into a full contact sport. Scooter is still waiting for his turn in knockout.

Gooney closed it out with a solid prayer and the promise of caffeine.

Moleskin:

• Hops got redemption in Round 3.
• Cat tried to call bank shots on a playground rim.
• Hansel claimed he was “saving energy for flag football.”
• Gooney says the medicine ball is “filled with regret.”

Quote of the Day:

“Winners get coffee. Losers get planks.” ☕💪
