13 men, a troll, along with Andy & Opie Taylor posted for a 10% chance to stay dry but it wasn’t meant to be….most pax jumped out of their respective rides at approximately 0528.  At 0530 and getting wetter by the second we were off and almost got ran over by Spud coming in on 2 wheels like Chicken Strip….grover hung back to show him where the beatdown would occur.

Mosey to visitor parking deck and up to level 2 as level 1 was about as wet as the road to it was.  SSH’s x 25 IC, Hillbillies x 15 IC, low slow squats x 10 IC…mosey around to bottom of second ramp.

The Thang:
Divide into 5 lines facing up the deck…

Round 1: first group of 5 told to complete 10 merkins…sprint up ramp halfway and do 15 more merkins.  While first group was completing merkins the other groups performed SSH’s and stepped up to follow their respective group as they completed their first set….once at top of that deck mosey around to bottom of next ramp…same concept except 5 burpees then 10 at halfway mark.
Round 2: level 1…5 WWII’s and 10 at halfway….level 2 = 15 merkins…20 merkins….level 3 = 7 burpees…12 burpees (groups 2 & 3 perform squats while waiting)
Round 3: level 1 = 10 star jumps…15 star jumps…level 2 = 20 merkins…25 merkins….level 3 = 5 burpees….10 burpees…(groups 2 & 3 perform SSH’s while waiting)

Mary called after round 3

Mosey back to AO…Mary consisted of picking up the six, Andy (Indy) & Opie (Deer Tick) Taylor performing a run walk.

Prayers/announcements: prayers for family of Matt (apologies, forgot last name) who was tragically killed in Puerto Rico…any and all infected by Coronavirus and for the doctors/scientists to come up with a vaccine.

Moleskin: Much like our country is divided our fearless OG leader pulled a crew, we’ll call them moderates, to Ground works while the current leader pulled a crew, we’ll call them democratic socialists, to Starbucks.  Ultimately our current leader just wants everyone to be together but not realistic in this day and age….
I promised a 10% chance of staying dry which I knew wasn’t likely to happen…while driving in this morning I was still unsure about going to the deck or the shelter but due to warm temps figured we’d get a better beatdown from the deck…beatdown was made up on the fly and the only who complained, to no ones surprise, was our resident MECA troll whose name needs no mention.  Mayweather was decked out in his rain gear and it was even needed in the deck as it was bringing on water like the titantic.  Ultimately we all survived and were better for it.  Saw my first Concord sticker today as did others and was slightly jealous….I’m now a quarter of the way there and as long as I get it before Catfish I’ll be happy….

Oh…and Grover paid me my MONEY 😉

Always an Honor,

Fire Chicken
