Twitter and Slack communication sent out notifying PAX to come out to YHCs beatdown. – Check

Alarm set with correct time – Check

It was a very foggy morning driving to The Storm this morning. Received a late text the night before from Sargento indicating he would be getting some EC in by running from his house to the Storm and wanted a ride back home after the workout. As I was driving to The Storm, I was hoping he didn’t run down Cramer Mountain due to the heavy fog. As I pulled into the parking lot, noticed his car was already there, along with 14 other cars. Nice turnout for the gloomy morning.

Its 5:30am, time to get going. No FNGs, so gave an abbreviated disclaimer and the Pledge

Traditions at Mt. Hollywood

14 Strong men started the warmup in the premier workout spot in Mount Holly. Cool and breezy morning. Let’s get after it!
Warmup
SSH x 15
Right over left x 10
Left over right x 10
Cotton Pickers x 10
MNC’s x 15

Mosey to the Presbyterian Church’s well-lit back parking lot.
Count off to partner up. What’s this? Only 13, we lost one somewhere! Must have been a Sparky (bathroom) situation!
Partner 1 runs back to the parking lot entrance for 10 Merkins and returns while Partner 2 does Flutter Kicks AMRAP, 2 sets each.
Then CDD’s, Plank, Squats, SSH all 2 sets each. I must say the old Merkin form was pretty close to perfect! Ask Sister Act. He’ll tell you! Slaw’s unnamed partner seemed to not be in that big of a hurry and was close to last to finish each time! Red Ribbon, Pillager, Shell Shock and Freon were leading the way on these. Speedy!

Mosey to BB&T wall for Rugby Sprints. Exercise until I say “Sprint” then sprint across parking lot, sprint back across lot then walk back across lot.

Between 5 and 15 reps of theses Exercises were performed:
Mike Tyson’s
Imperial Walkers
Plank Jacks
Toy Soldiers (Slaw was waiting on me to mess these up)
LBFC’s (Sister Act was mad about these, I blame Freight)
Mike Tyson’s again.

Mosey back to the school benches for 80 D’s. I used to always make the joke about this being Ash Pond’s college transcript but Ash Pond has disappeared from F3 and may never be seen again so I changed the joke to be Sister Act’s college transcript to keep the joke alive. Just kidding SA!
20 Dips (single count called by Slaw), 20 Dollies (single count called by Sister Act), 20 Dying cockroaches IC (called by Broke), 20 Derkins (single count called by Tesla).

Word about establishing faith traditions for your family during this holiday season. Lead your family in these. If you don’t really have any holiday faith traditions, start this year.

Back to the shovel flag which was blown down by the breeze. Broke picked it up.
Pledge

Announcements:
Convergence on December 28th at Gashouse at 7:00 am
Christmas Party at Lewis Farms on January 4th, likely RSVP.
Keep pushing on the 40/50 challenge.
Encouraged the guys to bring in some FNG’s to Mt. Hollywood and help Broke out with the Q schedule.

COT. Remembered the prayer requests made. Tiger’s dad. Broke’s M. Tiger took us out.

*NMM I found out Tesla will be Double Respect this week so congratulations to him. There are not very many Double Respects that can make it through an F3 workout or are even willing to try! Pillager shows up without his beard and we thought we had a new guy. He looks very young! Buckeye ran EC this morning then did the warmup then got in the Jeep and left so he may have gotten his extra credit but no backblast credit! I was a little disappointed at the lack of speed during the Rugby Sprints but a little encouragement seemed to help push things along! Thanks for the chance to lead!

Family Tree

9 PAX joined YHC for the boot camp at The Yank on Saturday. Wet Nutz originally had the Q but called in sick. Pockets had Q’d about every workout he could the past week and since I was leading the Food Ruck that morning he asked if I’d like to take the reins.

Warmup:

Let’s mosey. Stopped off at a Baptist parking lot for some warmup exercises I came up with on the spot. All I remember was Golddigger renamed In/Outs to penetrators.

Let’s mosey some more.

The Thang:

We found ourselves at the Greenwood cemetery.  There are three roundabouts and we did bear crawls, crabwalks, etc around them. Mosey to the bottom of the hill where I explained my Grandmother lived next door to the cemetery, our family has a plot here, and as kid I learned to ride  a bike here. CDD’s for when I flipped over the handle bars. Mosey to Grandma’s house. Her husbands name is Bob and he was a Marine for close to 30 years so 22 for the Vet’s. Over to my Great Uncle/Aunts house for more family stories and some zombie walks. Now for the hill on Faires Ave! This hill was terrible and we did it about 3 times. The third time we went to the former home of my Great Grandparents and Quiche requested we run the hill again. Mosey back to the cemetery to my family’s plot. Time to head back. Some PAX just love to run so they kept going while the rest of us stopped off for more exercises at the Baptist parking lot. Time.

COT:

Pledge

Announcements- you know

Prayer

Moleskin:

It was a pleasure to lead this morning. Great group of rock pushers out there this morning. We would have hit a few more family members if we had time. Of course we would have to climb the hill on Julia! All in all we put in about 3.5 miles. The word on the street is some PAX didn’t think I had that kind of mileage in my Q set. Well ya know I’ve been around for a while and just might surprise you sometimes.
