Nine PAX enjoyed a brisk fall morning and a muddy field after yesterday’s rain.

This was officially YHC’s first solo VQ after graduating from his co-VQ in May under the tutelage of Sergeant Schultz. It also served as a warm up for two of the PAX running the Rugged Maniac obstacle course later in the morning.

Given YHCs profession it also turned into an impromptu ‘education’ for the PAX – so it seemed fitting to start with a slow mosey and warmup to Education Hill to start the fun.

WARM-O-RAMA

Mosey to three stations on the way to Education Hill

SSH, IW, Toy Soldiers, Arm Swirly Things, Whirly With the Clap

THE THANG

#1 Mosey to the base of Education Hill for the first class:

•  Dora 1-2-3 up the hill
• 100 Merkins, 200 LBCs, 300 Squats
• Alternate bear crawls and runs up the hill till completed

#2 PAX seemed to want a short recess to we moseyed to the half tennis court

• Line up against the wall holding people’s chair running in succession with burpee before return
• Three more rounds of JR (15, 25, 5), Mike Tyson’s (5, 10, 15), and BTTW

#3 Time to resume class so we mosey to the Shelter for Five Layers of Dips:

• Dips x 10, Step Ups Each Leg x10, alternate Merkins, Diamond Merkins, Wide Armed Merkins, Erkins and Derkins

#4 Another call to recess so we mosey to the playground swings for doras on the swings

• Reverse rows with swings while partner runs around the circle
• Switch out
• complete three rounds

#5 Since YHC finds the Intimidator intimidating and had resolved not to make it part of the workout, so we head to the base of the infamous hill for a final push

• Add exercises 10-20-30-40
• Run to the first stop sign 10 Merkins
• Left to second corner add 20 Plank Jacks
• Third corner add 30 squats
• Return add 40 LBCs

Mosey back to the Parking Lot for Mary

• HTH and one round of drawing ABCs to complete the lesson.

NMM

• Lively group and strong work from everyone!
• Due to absent-mindedness can’t remember too much though I’m encouraged to have potential auditors for future courses.
• PALIN intimidated at the Intimidator with demonstration Offensive LB drills

NMM

• Upcoming obstacle course events 11/3 and 11/10, see Huckleberry, Zima or Van Gogh for details
• Prayers for family of Betsy Helms, whose mother is going into hospice soon
• Prayers for Boo Boo’s brother-in-law Keith who was just diagnosed with cancer
• YHC took us out thanking God for his blessings and asking his help to be better men in our relationships and and all that we do our daily lives

Couldn’t have asked for a better group of men for my solo VQ, appreciate your support and an honor to get a chance to lead today.

Thanks for the keys Palin
