Burns’ Birthday Bash Beatdown @ Flatline

QIC: Burns

PAX: Mutton, Lambchop, Truck Stop, Bevo, Burns (QIC)

5:30 – everyone out of their cars and straight to the parking deck in order to avoid the deluge.

Straight to the wall, where everyone assumed people’s chair while I explained the rules of gift-giving.

Round 1: 1 Pax runs to the end of the parking deck level and completes 26 reps of an exercise that is gifted to them. They run back and gift the next pax in line a new exercise and resumes people’s chair until all pax have gone.

Round 2: Same as above, except the solo pax gifts the rest of the pax an exercise to do while we wait for their return.

Editor’s note – as I have aged tremendously in the past day, my memory has begun to fail me and I cannot remember many of the gifts that were given. I do remember that Lambchop gifted everyone Iron Mikes in round 2, and nobody was thankful for the present.

Round 3: Mosey to the netherworld of the parking garage for a mountain of gifts. 1 pax chooses a gift for all to complete 26x, then all mosey up a level and another pax chooses a gift to add to the pile. So on and so forth we continued until we reached the top, then we unwrapped the gifts one at a time on the way down.  The mountain looked like this:

  • Level 1 – LBCs
  • Level 2 – LBCs, Ranger Merkins
  • Level 3 – LBCs, Ranger Merkins, 26s Plank
  • Level 4 – LBCs, Ranger Merkins, 26s Plank, Low Flutter
  • Level 5 – LBCs, Ranger Merkins, 26s Plank, Low Flutter, Jump Squats
  • Level 4 – Ranger Merkins, 26s Plank, Low Flutter, Jump Squats
  • Level 3 – 26s Plank, Low Flutter, Jump Squats
  • Level 2 – Low Flutter, Jump Squats (we all accidentally goofed and did 26s plank as well)
  • Level 1 – Jump Squats

2 mins left for Mary – American Hammers x26 IC & Heels to Heaven x26 IC

NMM: In case it wasn’t obvious enough, today is my 26th birthday… I was blessed to start the day with a hard working group this morning. Discussions included birthday plans, audio books, hatred of leg exercises, thankfulness for no one calling burpees, and musings about which AOs will be underwater by the end of the week. Additionally, I found out via twitter that I’m lucky to share a birthday with two HIMs within our ranks – hbd to Sour Mash and BAM!

Prayers were offered for $5 Footlong’s injuries, for Lambchops friend who was recently let go from his job, and for the country and world to heal from the physical, economical, and emotional setbacks caused by COVID-19
