Date: 04/02/19
PAX: Schneider, 60 Minutes (WB), TPS, THE Singing Cowboy, Boomerrang (WD), Harden, Sgt. Schultz, Sourmash, Jalopy, Spamalot (QIC)
Despite for forecast of snow….whatever, 10 hardy Pax came out this Tuesday morning to see what was in store for them. A quick hello to Jalopy – YHC hears great things about you! And we were off as follows:
Warm-o-rama
SSH, IST, Seal Claps, Overhead Claps, and Squats. All IC, all x 15.
THE THANG
Mosey to side of school and grab a block. First time for YHC seeing the new and improved (i.e., not broken) blocks. TClaps to the Pax responsible for the fancy new hardware.
Return to the front of the school for the following explanation.
At the first cone along sidewalk, perform 1 rep of the designated exercise (with block), then walk (with the block) to the next cone (approximately 30 yards). Perform 2 reps, then return to cone 1 for 3, reps. Continue this pattern until 10 reps of exercise completed.
Then put down block and head to 3rd cone, located in middle of parking lot (maybe 20 yards). Perform 20 reps of the designated abdominal exercise.
Return to your block at cone 1, and start the process over with the next exercise. Continue until all block and abdominal exercises are done.
The block exercises were: curls, overhead press, skull crushers, bent over rows, chest press, squats, swings
The abdominal exercises were: LBCs, low flutter, low dolly, Heels to heaven, peter parkers, box cutters, penguin crunches.
Return blocks to side of school, and return to front for Mary: LBCS, Rosalita, penguin crunch.
TIME!
NMM
55 exercises of each block work were completed. Most pax got through all exercises = 385 reps
AND 140 abdominal exercise reps completed. 1.07 miles traveled. YHC will take it.
First time meeting Jalopy, and can already see why he is becoming a regular. Keep up the strong work.
The format led to a lot of 2nd F. Thanks to Schultz and Jalopy for the discussion! Good times.
TPS took the more sensible route of traveling on the sidewalk, while the rest of us were on the parking lot surface.
NO Rush was played, much to the delight of Schultz
Some discussion of what 60 Minutes and his M were up to was had. YHC did not hear enough to comment any further.
How in the world is Boomerrang the WD? He continues to defy Father Time.
Despite YHC turning down the opportunity for an EC run with SourMash, he still posted and got after it.
Singing Cowboy and Schneider are a dynamic duo…much like Adam West and Burt Ward.
Harden showing no signs of having just run a 1/2 marathon – strong work!
Announcements/Prayer Requests
Cobra has the Q tomorrow at Bells n Whistles. Filed under both announcement and prayer request (for the pax).
YHC took us out, asking for the knowledge to respect all people.
Schultz – Thanks for the opportunity, it was a great time!
