The Thang:

Stage 1 (France) – Time Trials

The PAX Mosey’d to the BB&T Alley for Wall Sits while each PAX took an individual lap up the stairs and around the building

Stage 2 (France) – Mountain Stage

After the Time Trials we mosey’d to the back of the buildings and partnered up.  In aggregate 100 Mountain Climbers while partner ran Hills alternating until 100 Mountain Climbers were achieved.

Stage 3 (Spain)

Since the Tour de France is made up of long bike rides, we did a long mosey down Front Street to the parking lot at 8th & 10th Street a.k.a. Spain.  Given that this was Spain, we did 50 Don Quixote’s OYO followed by 50 Moroccan Night Clubs (Morocco is next to Spain) OYO.

Stage 4 (Andorra)

Mosey’d to the Community Center Parking Lot a.k.a. Andorra.  Andorra is a small country between Spain and France, The next set of exercises were “little”, as Andorra is a small Country and they have a Basketball Team (thanks Wikipedia).

50 LBC OYO

30 Bobby Hurley’s OYO

50 LBFC OYO

Mosey to Baseball Field bleachers for Raccoon Crawls only to find there weren’t any bleachers, so we Omaha’d to Bear Crawls x2 through the stands

Stage 5 (Switzerland)

Mosey’d back to Front Street and planned to do Clock Merkins on the hill a.k.a. Switzerland (Swiss make Watches – Clocks are like big watches…) but there was some Mumble Chatter about Poison Ivy on the hill, so we Omaha’d…  Indian Run back to the original hill from stage 2 for Clock Merkins

12 Merkins at 12 O’Clock

3 Merkins at 3 O’Clock

6 Merkins at 6 O’Clock

9 Merkins at 9 O’Clock

Right about this time, off in the distance, was an oncoming Freight Train so a quick 5 Burpees OYO

Stage 6 – (France) – Champ Elysees

This was the final stage of the tour which was a mosey back to the starting parking lot for 22 Merkins for 22 Veterans.

COT

There were no announcements today so we Name-O-Rama’d and closed out with prayer.
