QIC: Greenspan

Date: 11/18/2021

PAX: Root Canal (WD), Bevo (WB), Drip, Mutton, Cherry Pie, Palin, Greenspan

Root Canal put out a limited time offer late Wednesday for the WIB Q.  YHC snatched it, and here’s what we did.

Warmarama:

SSHs, on your back stretching, up/down dogs, and Cherry Pies.

The Thang:

Two sheets of paper:

Continue down the weinkes until time is called.

Announcements:

• Thanksgiving TRQ will launch at 0700 at Speas. No WIB on Thanksgiving.
• Flatline on Tuesday will be Qed by Spamalot.
• Convergence at 0700 on Saturday, 11/27/21, at Hanes Park. Canned goods will be collected.  See Wobegon’s #PAXgiving post Slack for more details on our goals to be intentional with lapsed pax and would-be FNGs.  There will also be a canned food drive, i.e. we are collecting food at the workout.
• GreeNest Saturday at Mutton’s mother’s house. Step up if you are able.

Prayer Requests: 

• Plunger’s and Drama Queen’s very close friend Jim who has prostate cancer. Pray for courage and healing.
• Drama Queen’s friend Allen, a double-amputee, who has been hospitalized for 70 days. He’s diabetic.
• Bevo’s and family’s trip to Alabama. Patience and understanding for Bevo.
• Two pax in the nation went to the other side this week at their own hand. Reach out to pax you haven’t seen or heard from in a while.
• Fender’s recovery.

YHC took out with thanks for all of the tiny blessings that we overlook on a daily basis.

NMM:

• “Who’s Special?” Bevo asked this question at the end of the workout and got quickly lost in a “Who’s on first” type exchange.
  • But seriously, a mysterious pax named Special HCed on Slack but did not appear to be present this morning.
• We only made it through 5 rounds, which seemed sufficient.
• Cherry Pie stepped up for the vacated Impossible Situation Q this Saturday, 11/20/21. He promised an hour of arm swirlies and would not commit to a single burpee.  He also indicated he would arrive earlier to workouts to warm up his arms.
• Bevo’s trip logistics to Alabama for Thanksgiving were a topic of conversation that lasted past CoT. Here’s what we know.  Bevo is impatient.  Bevo’s dog is incontinent.  Bevo’s dog is sitting in the front seat while Bevo’s M is in the back seat with kids.  Cherry Pie thinks Bevo will have many opportunities to be patient.  Palin offered to be the phone a friend option during the trip.  Sounds like an epic road trip.
• Drip and Mutton plowed through the exercises with nary a complaint and, frankly, appeared to enjoy themselves which was not expected. Palin, however, complained (surprise) early and often about the 30 reps for each non-ab exercise among a multitude of other topics.  He also admitted that he only comes to workouts these days to provide a backblast title.
• Root Canal was Mr. Speedy today, out front all morning with Cherry Pie and Bevo.
• As has become the norm, there was uncomfortable moaning from multiple pax during on-your back stretches. Root Canal apparently found a hamstring during this portion of the morning.

Thanks for the keys, Root Canal.  They’re in the Chick-Fil-A parking lot.
