Serenity Amidst Chaos
QIC: Frostbite
Date: 4/17/2023
PAX: @Dr. Toot (WD), @$5 Footlong, @Red Pajamas, @Frostbite (YHC, QiC, WB)
3 others joined me in my #VQ at #Mayhem this morning. It was a glorious weather day that caused some serenity amidst all the construction happening at the #AO. So serene, @Red Pajamas showed up a few minutes late from his slumber but the #accountability and #EH from @$5 won out.
I have only been to this #AO a few other times for convergences and meant to visit it last week to get a better lay of the land so I could plan a proper beatdown, but the bed won out after #HighLife. I had to rely on some trusty backblasts (just one of the reasons why it is important to write one!) to concoct my plan. This one was a rough variation on one @Adobe did called the #BruceLee (with much better graphics). Here is how our morning went:
Warmarama:
SSH (20 x IC)
Copperhead Squats (10 x IC)
Abe Vigoda (8 x IC)
Whirley’s Got the Clap (10 x IC)
Arm Swirlys (10x IC, FlapJack)
Seal Clap (10 x IC)
OH Clap (10 x IC)
Moroccan Night Clubs (10 x IC)
The Thang:
Base Station at bottom of #Hill2NoWhere. Do set of exercises. 20 reps all OYO.
- WW Hammers (WW2s with American Hammer at end)
- HR Merkins
- Alt. Lunges (10 each Leg)
- WW Hammers (WW2s with American Hammer at end)
- Irkins
- Monkey Humpers
Once all 6 exercises are complete, run up #Hill2NoWhere. 2 Burpees at top. Run Down.
Rinse and Repeat x 4!
and TIME!
Mary:
We opted to continue on and finish Rnd 4 instead.
NMM:
WW Hammers feel/smell/taste/looks awfully like a WW2 so @Dr. Toot made the executive decision to count them towards monthly challenge. Approved. 160 by my count!
Hit @$5 up for any travel recommendations. Particularly if you are looking for a summer trip up to Maine and Acadia National Park as YHC and my M are planning in July. Great recs.
@Red Pajamas is steadfast as can be. Strong work this morning and was killing the circuits. He can also be found swimming at the local Clemmons Y. Maybe he sees @Huckleberry there.
@Dr. Toot was out front all morning but did a great job pushing the 6 to be right there with him. Ask him about the Kale and Bean soup he has had recently. You may have been able to smell it, too!
Overall, a perfect morning. Weather was cooperative. Not too hot, not too cold. Just right. We have all been waiting for mornings like this one.
#Mayhem is a great #AO — so many different options. That hill is no joke. Wish it wasn’t so far for YHC but mornings like today made it worth it.
Announcements:
@$5 urging #PAX whom are looking to add to their families via a puppy (not babies @Bevo, @TO, don’t worry) they found at Washington Park. Currently, the pup is living with the Humane Society. Reach out to him with any questions.
Happy Hour (and 1/2) happening tomorrow at 5:30pm at Mossy’s in Clemmons. Hope to see you guys there!
#HighLife is becoming a thing on Tuesday Evenings. 7:30pm. Miller Park (Queen St. Lot). 33 guys in 2 weeks with 5 FNGs. Strong work and keep the EH on those guys. And get the FNGs back out. Come out and support! @Chomper on the Q next week! Bring your running shoes.
Prayers:
Finding a good home for the pup
@$5 neighbor who are expecting very soon.
YHC took us out.
Thanks for the keys, @Workbench! You were missed. Keys were taken by one of the bus drivers. Who knows where they are now.
All the love,
Frostbite
