While doing these, I look over and see a black and white cat coming up beside me, I yelled SKUNK! Hank takes off from a low end of a merkin like a rocket, yelling some words that I want repeat, I couldn’t finish for laughing! I apologized, but all through the day I would think of that and laugh!

11 Him’s posted at the Yank pre-Labor day, including one FNG we been working on for a while, welcome Tanner Smith – Slice.  Boudin stopped by for warm -up and pledge as he was getting in some miles still prepping for BRR.

Here’s how it went: warm up SSH x 10, cotton pickers x 10, imperial walkers x 10.  Pledge.

Mosey up main street hill take a right on Eagle to Belmont Central Elem.  On play ground beside school is large map of USA, that became “homebase”.  Normally homebase is a safe place, but in our case it was the site of repeated burpees.  All pax arrive at map for 10 burpees.  At each coner of play are Q had written an exercise in chalk and number of reps.  After each exercise, back to home base for 10 burpees.  Exercises were 10 merkin, 20 lbc, 30 American hammer, 40 cdd, 50 squat, 60 step ups, 70 SSH. Adding in 10 burpees after each set totaled 80 burpees.

Mosey out back side of school, beside Davis park and around to front of First Baptist Church.  10 burpees.  Reverse bear crawl up the steps from the side walk to the front doors of the church.  There are A LOT of steps, this pretty much elevated suck factor to extreme.  To add to the punishment, the steps are divided into three sets with a flat area in between, 50 big boy sit ups at each flat area then continue the reverse crawl up.  Once complete crawl back to side walk.  10 burpees for 100 total burpees.

Mosey back to Yank, had a couple minutes left for some more merkins and little flutter crunches.  Time.

Good push by all on a muggy morning.
