mucho burpees and almost some merlot

QIC: crash

Date: 7/5/2023

PAX: mutton, palin, total recall, frostbite, lamb chop, schlitz, crash

The PAX assembled for the 2nd of a back to back q by YHC @ Conspiracy on 7/5/23.

We did the mission and 5 core principles then the fairly normal warmup:

Side straddle hop, imperial walkers, forward arm swirly things, some hip stretching from the 6 position, then Palin was upset we didn’t do backward arm swirly things right after the forward ones so we did those. Then some hillbillies, and somewhere in there some abe vigodas. Well we probably did the hillbillies earlier. Then I tried to do hillbillies again and was told we already did them. I’ve been a little preoccupied. So, we left and moseyed to the track.

I made a spur of the moment decision to head over to the tennis courts in front by the least efficient route possible. We jumped the back fence and did, from near sideline near court to far sideline far court… side shuffle up and back, karaoke up and back, then nadals, out and back to far and near baseline of each of 3 courts, 5 trips. Then we jumped back over and continued. Several pax remarked I left the cardboard outside the tennis courts. Oops!

We moseyed to the track, bear crawling across the bridge. At the track I put down 2 cardboards at the start and finish of the 100 m dash zone. They looked like this:

7 burpees
5 hr merkins
23 heels to heaven
7 burpees
5 iron mike dc
23 lbc’s

7 burpees
5 ww2’s
23 squats
7 burpees
5 wmd’s
23 freddie mercs

The idea was to do 1 then 6, then add one each trip around the track, substract one on the other side, 2 then 5, 3 then 4… until finished. PAX had a choice to run the short way (100m) or the long way (300m) between stations. We chose to just continue in the same direction so it became an alternating thing.

There was a lot of complaining about burpees and the PAX convinced me to drop from the top vs the bottom to do fewer burpees. Who am I to argue. A couple of the PAX who shall remain nameless said they were suffering a bit with the previous night’s festivities but I didn’t feel it really slowed them down.

We had to wrap up a bit early and just did a couple of remaining exercises, wmd’s and freddie mercs, and moseyed back to start for a quick ring of fire starting with 4 merkins, announcements for which I don’t recall any and prayer to close us out.

As always a great group, great to have everyone out, a talkative bunch that stuck together for the morning, always nice to have that and have a bit more chatter. Honor to lead. Crash out.
