12 PAX posted for one of the last days in the full light at Midoriyama. Daylight savings time will put us in the gloom come next week. We were planning to do a surprise post at Floppy Disk’s house since he has been MIA lately but While I was doing some scouting(trick or treating) Monday night he mentioned he was going to post. With that messages were sent to abort the plan and all made it to Midoriyama. Good to have such a strong crowd out today!

Warmup:

SSH x 16 ic I was going a little higher but noticed Def Leppard was hoping on one foot due to his broken toe.

Moroccan Nightclubs w/ high knees and butt kickers

LBC’s x 15 ic

Flutter Kicks x 15 ic

Sandy V’s x 10 ic ( for Billy Madison)

The Thang:

Mosey to the end parking lot at the soccer fields

Route 66- All in a line together, Bobby Hurley’s at each line starting with 1 then 2 then 3 and so on until 11

Fellowship mosey around the island to recover

Lunge between lines and 1 merkin at each parking space line. So I heard someone say “just 1 merkin”. The thing about doing one merkin is it’s basically doing a burpee. It’s a mental trick! We did this for the length which was about 20 lines worth.

Mosey back across the park to the stairs.

2 at a time do 10 calf raises on each step x 13 steps( For Tooltime ). Everyone else planks until they can get on a step. When finished plank until all are done.

Mosey back to the flag for the Pledge.

Partner up w/cement block. Partner 1 10 blockees Partner 2 wall sit about 20 yds away. Switch. Rinse and repeat for 5 rounds=50 blockees each! Floppy Disk’s favorite exercise!

Same setup but this time we did curls x 30.

COT:

Announcements-CSAUP, Nomads headed to Isotope, Gastonia Convergence, Holiday Party in January

Prayer Request-Lil Sweet’s family member getting tonsils removed and tubes put in, Tooltime, Floppy’s M and family, surgery is this Friday.

Read-Colossians 3:15-17- And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body, and be thankful. Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God. And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.

Moleskin:

I can’t say enough about this group of guys. Week in and week out consistently posting, pushing themselves and each other. When you listen to the conversations they are always asking about and checking up on things happening in each others lives. That tells me they really care. I want to personally thank all of you for the support and prayers for Floppy Disk’s family.
