It was a gloomy Monday morning at Neverland, but oh so perfect for a fine tuned Weinke workout.

Warmup:

SSH x 30IC

MNC x 20IC

Big Boys x 30 OYO

4×4’s x 10 OYO.  A demo was requested and YHC quickly demonstrated my lack of coordination (or intelligence) when Whoopie corrected me after doing the 4 merkins and standing up instead of 4 x mountain climbers.  Then he didn’t let me count that towards my 10 reps!  Thanks Whoopie!

Mosey 20 ft to see the flag; PLEDGE

Mosey towards Gastone’s hill.  Lunge Walk between two light poles.

Mosey to Gastone’s hill.  15 Merkins @ the bottom.  JK2 questioned YHC whether AO is bootcamp or running?  Bootcamp, but… Run, I say! Run up Gastone’s hill!  Aaaaaaand then do 40 LBCs OYO.

Fellowship Mosey turned Mosey by Gastone.  10 count at the bottom by…. one of them PAX.

Yes, more Mosey.  Turn right, mosey up hill to church parking lot.   Flutters 50? OYO

Mosey to the stairs behind Robinson.  Elevens!  Start 10 BigBoys up top, 1 Merkin @ bottom.  Pax crushed it.  Mosey back to pelican’s.  Seasoned PAX who shall not be named thought YHC would return us to pelican’s late….  YHC called end at 06:14:40!  I won’t tell the PAX that I brought a 3/4 complete Weinke and was planning to improvise after the Elevens……

Nice work, men!  We got in right around 2.5 miles!  Some PAX got in some EC beforehand too!

Prayer requests:

JK2 travel to NYC with daughter, Watt’s Up M ,  Outhouse to start new job soon

Announcements:

Raise money for the Downtown potty- YHC forgot to ask for donations, let’s collect this coming Monday (Island has the Q with some fresh ideas!)

JJ5K on Saturday

On another note, I enjoyed talking to Ocho Cinco briefly on the run back.  I realize that I don’t know much about PAX outside of our meetings in the gloom.  I encourage all PAX to try to get to know each other on more of a personal level.  I realize it’s hard when we are sweating profusely and gasping for that extra little bit of oxygen, but let’s strengthen this F3 community that much more and make ourselves more approachable on a personal level for those PAX, old or new, who may need to open up or need somebody to ask them how they are or what’s going on.

Until next time!
