Jokes on You
QIC: Frostbite
Date: 04/01/2023
PAX: @Palin, @Turnover, @Houdini, @Green Acres (WD), @Burns, @Lamb Chop, @Schlitz, @Litterbox (#Kotters), @Frostbite (YHC, QiC, WB)
YHC signed up to Q for this one a while back thinking I could do a theme around April Fools. I thought long and hard on what I could do. Play a joke, riddle, call something then OMAHA the whole time…
Unfortunately, I am not as witty and creative as the old man @Starfish and we kept it simple and here is how it went:
5 PAX joined for the EC Run (@Houdini!!, @Palin, @Schlitz, @Burns, @Turnover, YHC). YHC thought the pace would be slower since @Greenspan is enjoying time at the beach this week. I thought wrong and that was dismissed once @Turnover showed up. I had an average of 8:14/mile with negative splits… that is what it is all about, gents, supposedly… I am not a runner. We got back in plenty of time and YHC mumbled that we may have time for a coffee, or to go home and come back. @Schlitz liked that idea… @Green Acres steady as can be with the RIRO.
Everyone exchanged greetings and welcomed back @LitterBox and we got to it.
Warmarama:
SSH (20 x IC)
Copperhead Squats (10 x IC)
Abe Vigoda (6 x IC)
Whirley’s Got the Clap (STILL?!) (10 x IC)
Imperial Walkers (10 x IC)
Cherry Pies Forwards/Reverse (10 x IC)
Morrocan Night Clubs (10 x IC)
At this time, calls were being made about time wasting so I happily obliged and moved on. #Pax were to mosey to blocks the long way via Peloton Run. @Green Acres helped unlock and distribute the blocks as to not waste anymore time. Smart call from the War Daddy.
The Thang #1:
Take Blocks to track.
4 Corners:
Pax were to do 1 exercise at each corner. 15 reps of each. Plank for the 6 once lap is complete.
4 Corners, 1 exercise = 4/1 = Today’s Date. That was the theme.
Rnd 1 Exercises:
Merkins, Squats, LBCs WW2s, SSH (mosey to each corner)
Rnd 2 Exercises:
Curls, Squats, WW2s, CB Swings (farmers carry, rifle carry, OH carry block to each corner)
Rnd 3 Exercises:
Carolina Dry Docks, Monkey Humpers, Gas Pumps, Imperial Walkers (mosey to each corner)
Rnd 4 Exercises:
Skull Crushers, Lunges (DC), WW2s, Squat Thrusters (#CrowdPleaser)
So, 4 rounds for April. Theme is still intact?!
Mosey to blacktop
The Thang #2:
7s! Like 11s, but with 7.
Pax were to do 1 rep of exercise, mosey to other side and do 6 reps of another exercise. Then 2/5, 3/4, 4/3, 5/2, 6/1.
Chest Press / HR Burpees
Plank for the 6.
OH Carry block back to pile. Don’t Q it if you can’t do it! I swear I just needed a little break!
Blocks were put up and locked. Mosey to Launch for Mary!
Community Mary:
Low Flutter (10 x IC) (YHC)
Plank – All the way ups, Halfway down, etc (@Palin)
WW2s (10 x IC) (@Schlitz)
American Hammers (10 x IC) (@Burns)
Huckleberry Merkins (3 x IC) (@Green Acres)
TIME!
NMM:
Once again, EC Run added a new member in @Houdini! Dude is a beast and hitting the ground running. Literally. I sent out the EH last night and he showed up for the run with a smile on his face. Hope to see him become a regular at #TIT
@Lamb Chop complained about the lack of WW2s. He is worried about his lead in the Monthly Challenge after not caring about the miles month. No, you cannot do WW2s for the 6.
@Turnover, 1st F Q, was out front all morning setting the pace in the run and the beatdown. He is digging the warmer weather but still was covered head to toe.
@Schlitz is a runner! Tried to keep up with him during the beatdown to no avail.
@Burns is enjoying his carefree world this week. Only obligations are to pull weeds and watch baseball. He is a teacher for the money and the breaks. And maybe the pension…His arms may be off kilter with how we farmers carried this morning.
@Green Acres bleeds Wolfpack red this week now that his Heels are out. His M is a Double Pack so at least he has validity for his fandom.
@Palin still hasn’t given @Whirley any pills for his clap… He referred him to @Green Acres.
@Litter Box is still as strong as ever. Would never know he hasn’t been in the gloom since the fall. Glad to have you back.

@Litter Box has the Q at #Flatline next week, April 9th. He seemed to be an HC for the double down option in the evening!
@Frank&Beans has his #VQ at #Conspiracy Wednesday. Let’s see what he has up his sleeve.
Prayers:
Aging Parents and those close to us in Hospice care.
YHC took us out thanking the Sky Q for a beautiful morning and for sending his Son so that way may have hope for what it is to come; reunion in Heaven.
Thanks for the keys @Ducky, you were missed! I locked them up with the blocks.
