10 men gathered in the Stallings Park parking lot on a cold morning to roll the dice.  Here’s how it went:

Warm-a-rama:

Mosey to the HYA rock.

1. SSH
2. IST
3. Penny pickers
4. Grandpa jacks

The Thang:

Starting with Uncle Floyd and continuing around the circle, roll the dice. Whatever number it lands on, do the following exercise for a full minute (with a 15 second break to allow for the next dice roll).

1. (None, because as I realized late last night, you cannot roll a 1 with a pair of dice, but I can’t properly number this list without including something here)
2. Burpees
3. Upright rows
4. Tricep extensions
5. Goblet squats
6. Overhead press
7. Merkins
8. Chest press
9. Curls
10. Sumo squats
11. American hammers
12. Outhouse curls

After everyone had rolled once, we ran to the HYA rock for a single burpee, and then started back over.

Observations:

• We were able to make it through 2.5 rounds.
• My research indicated that 7 is the most rolled number with a pair of dice, and that was certainly the case this morning. I believe 7 was rolled at least a half dozen times, maybe more.
• I believe every number was rolled except for 2 and 12 (although 2 was “manually” rolled by Othello).  This aligns with my research which indicated that 2 and 12 are the least rolled number with a pair of dice.

Mary:

1. Freddie Mercuries
2. LBC’s
3. Squirm

Announcements/Prayers:

1. Mint Hill’s Gremlin will be February 14
2. HRHS/HRMS Band’s mattress fundraiser scheduled for Sunday has been postponed. Date TBD.
3. Continued prayers for those who are currently sick or suffering.
