Kids Games

QIC: Huckleberry

Date: 6/20/20

PAX: HOG, Zima plus twin 2.0s, Bullwinkle, $5 Footlong, Bevo, Litterbox, Snake Eyes, Sour Mash, Greenspan plus Baby BamBam, Schneider

Earlier this week…….

Zima – “hey huck, will you be staying close to the playground at Charlie foxtrot on Saturday”

YHC – “Not sure.  Haven’t planned it yet.  Why?”

Zima – “I have the boys and was thinking about coming out as long as I could keep an eye on them”

YHC – “then yes.  Bring the boys and we will see you on Saturday”

That’s how it started.  Now I just had to come up with a plan.  In the end, all kids were invited and were included in the beatdown.  This is what happened……

11 Pax and three 2.0s showed up to play some old school games.

Warm –o- rama – all IC – SSH x 20, IW x 15 (Zimas boys did a better job than Zima), Abe V x 10, Merkins (why is one of Zimas kids on my back…….and why is it the heavier one) x ???- lost count due to the bouncing weight on my back, Michael Phelps.

Mosey to the soccer field next to the playground for our first game.

TAG – cones set up 50 yards apart.  The PAX must bear crawl 50 yards, turn around, and bear crawl 50 yards back.  The twist…….all of the kids are it and can run.  If you get tagged, you must stop the bear crawl and perform 3 burpees.  Resume bear crawl.  Second twist – increase the merkins in the burpees – each time you are tagged, increase the merkins by 1.

Round 2 – same rules…..just crab walk instead of bear crawl.

Mosey to basketball court for game 2 – Duck Duck Goose

Circle up.  PAX hold a static pose while we play DDG.  Once you are Goosed, you power skip around the circle instead of running.  If you catch the PAX or kid that tapped you Goose, they have to do 5 burpees.  If you do not catch them, you do 5 monkey humpers.

Static poses – high plank, side plank, opposite side plank, reverse plank, low squat, low flutter

Mosey to bus lot for game 3 – Race

The bus lot is slightly uphill.  PAX line up on the bottom line with the kids.  Rules are simple – on GO, kids sprint to last bus line and pax sprint backwards to the last bus line.  All out.  If any kid beats their dad, all pax have to do 10 Bobby Hurleys.  Repeato x 7.  Spoiler alert…….we did 70 Bobby Hurleys after backwards sprints uphill 7 times.

Mosey to the playground for the final game – playground exploring……DORA

50 pull ups

150 merkins

250 squats

Sprint around the playground and switch with partner.

Paleton back to start for Mary

Mary – Heels to heaven, American Hammer, Freddy Merks.

FIN, Done, Spent.  Game over.

Annoucements – Schmedfest, Greenspan has Q at VI

Prayers – all unspoken

YHC took us out asking for healing of HOGs son and a quick recovery, help us find those that need HIM, and just more love and HIM in the world.

MC – lots of it

• The kids were amazing! It’s too bad they won every game and the pax suffered for it.
• Tag was miserable. The as soon as you got any momentum, you were tagged.  Lots of burpees, lots of merkins
• The pax all revolted round 2 with crab walks – but as soon as we said GO, they all complied. Some did better with crab walking than bear crawling.  Others did not.  Zima may actually still be out there.
• Duck Duck Goose – Sour insisted all monkey humpers must be performed basically on YHCs head. The rest of the pax agreed.
• Sprints/Race – Greenspan can not beat his son BamBam in a sprint. When planning, YHC did not expect him to lose every race.  Or maybe he lost on purpose to torture the pax. FYI…..sprinting backwards uphill only to do 10 bobby hurleys at the top was a quad killer. There was an 8^th round where we raced them forwards (some pax wanted to see if they could beat the kids).  Final results are pending but it was closer than we thought it would be.
• Playground exploring – kids played. Pax worked.
• Pelaton back – kids did not get the process so it rapidly turned into a jailbreak. We ran back for the 6.  Zimas 2.0 asked Sour what he was doing all the way back there.  Sour responded with “I’m slow”.  0 “why?”.  Sour “I made a lot of poor choices as a kid”.  Schneider “and you continue as an adult”.  Brotherly love.
• All pax got after it this morning. Snake eyes expected more playing than working out.  He was surprised.
• Sour was excited when we moseyed to the basketball court – that did not last long
• Greenspan loves static holds.
• Bevo thinks that greenspan is leaking and not sweating after playing DDG.
• It was great to see litterbox out there and it was great working out with snake eyes
• Also great to workout with Bullwinkle – he somehow managed to escape getting tagged as much as the rest of us. He must have owned the playground as a kid.

Hardin – thanks for the opportunity to lead.  The next game is hide and seek.  The keys are around playground.  Good luck.
