Deck of Despair at Flatline – Jokers Wildly Terrible

QIC: Bluto

Date: 9/12/17

PAX: Beverly, Closer, Balco, Lite Brite, Zima, Bluto

YHC volunteered yesterday to Q this morning’s Flatline, largely because I did not want to get drenched outside.  Hence, a covered parking deck version of Deck of Despair was born.  Sadly, YHC does not own a deck of cards, despite having been to Las Vegas double digit times.  Closer saved the day by bringing a deck.

Above please see the (small photo of my) plan.  All PAX likely have done the Deck of Despair.  There were a few wrinkles however:

There were 5 rounds, each lasting about 8 minutes, in an effort to vary the exercises.

The 2 Jokers were left in the deck.  Each Joker pulled meant 20 Burpees.  #crowdpleaser

We sort of took turns drawing cards.  In the spirit of Flatline, there was a “rest” exercise for each round and they were SSH, Plank, Al Gore, 6 Inches and Imperial Storm Trooper.  Thus, while waiting for all PAX to finish and/or one to draw a card, the “rest” move was done.

In sum, with the Clubs, approximately 2.75 miles were covered and all muscle groups worked.

 

MC:  Closer excels at Broad Jumps and Zuckerberg Power Skips.  #littleknownfact

Balco ran 28 miles over the weekend and still has flatulence.

Lite Brite is a beast after having run the BRR, playing tennis Sunday and probably posting yesterday.

Zima is strong.

Beverly was refreshed, though he ran about 45 minutes this weekend to my 3 hours.

 

Prayer requests:  Houston, Florida, the Caribbean.

 

YHC took us out in prayer.

 

Thanks for the keys, Beverly!

    Thanks for keeping us dry! The Jokers were way too close together and dang those burpees were rough.
    Strong work by all!

    I should have left the Jokers at home.
