“The Dirt” at Outhouse

QIC: SGT Schultz

Date: May 20, 2019

PAX: Bevo, Boomerang, Greenspan, HOG, Turnover, SGT Schultz, Wobegon, Zima

8 PAX showed up for a retread Sandbag workout led by yours truly (similar to one I Q’d at Outhouse approx. 2 years ago).

WARMARAMA:  A typical medley of SSHs, ISTs, Seal Claps, Overhead Claps, Whirly’s with a social disease, Abe Vigodas, and some standing hamstring stretches.

THE THANG:  At the conclusion of Warmarama, the PAX paired off into 4 two-man buddy teams.   Each PAX then selected two sandbags from the volleyball pit, each filled with 1 or 2 shovelfuls of sand (or added additional sand to suit their own ambition).   We then went under the shelter.   While one teammate ran a 0.2 mile loop on the jogging trail that runs alongside the shelter (which YHC marked with lanterns), the other teammate performed the listed exercise on the Weinke (with a sandbag in each hand) until his partner returned.   Flapjack, then move onto the next listed exercise.

The listed exercises were as follows:

  • Curls
  • Side Raises
  • Alternating Lunges
  • Upright Rows
  • Skull Crushers
  • Goblet Squats
  • Overhead Press
  • Alternating Step Ups
  • Cabbage Patch
  • Bent Over Rows
  • Front Raises
  • Deadlifts

I’m pretty sure that every team finished all 12 exercises by the time that we transitioned to Mary at 0611, resulting in everyone getting in at least 2.4 miles of running along with a good total body workout.

MARY:  Performed democratically, with a mixture of Crunchy Frogs (led by Wobegon), Penguin Crunches (led by HOG), and American Hammers (led by Bevo)

NMM:

  • Boomerang has the Q at Bells N Whistles on Wednesday
  • YHC has the Q at Mayhem on Wednesday
  • Memorial Day (Monday) convergence at the Estate at 0530 (convergence of The Estate and Village Idiocy); 0700 workout at The Outhouse

COT:   The following prayer requests were raised and spoken:

  • Boomerang’s sister, Susan, starts her next round (her fourth) of Chemotherapy tomorrow;
  • Greenspan’s friend’s wife just received a diagnosis of a serious form of cancer;
  • Turnover has a family friend who is going through a marital separation (with two small children) and who has also lost her job (but has just received a job offer);
  • On behalf of himself and other parents of special needs children, Bevo asks for patience and love for these precious children and for spouses who have been given a beautiful, yet challenging gift, from God
  • Zima publicly expressed his deepest thanks to his F3 brothers who helped him on Saturday at Time Lapse when he experienced major cramping, dehydration and passing.  So many dropped everything (sacrifices their own races) to help him, a brother in need
  • Boomerang took us out in prayer, offering a prayer of intercession for the above concerns and those in need, that all will experience His love, grace and the peace of God that surpasses all understanding

Thanks for the Keys, Greenspan!
