10 Count

Broke was asking for Qs, especially from PAX who normally don’t frequent Mt. Hollywood. YHC, having only ever been there once, signed up. YHC was having trouble with where to go, what to-do, but came up with a plan.

For the record, don’t plan on using Catawba Avenue. It’s a bit too heavily traveled, even in the gloom of morn. Lesson learned.

Any-who…

0530 hits and 6 have joined YHC in the shadow of Mt. Holly Middle.

We knock the pledge and do a little warmup:
Goof Balls IC x 12
IW IC x 12
MNC IC x 12

Time to mosey – Hawthorne to Catawba to Second Baptist Church.

Ask Tiger for count off, he gives a 10 count. That works too, this time let’s do the count off.

Time for some work.
Escalating 4 corners
Corner 1:
10 Merkins

Corner 2:
10 Merkins
20 Mtn Climbers

Corner 3:
10 Merkins
20 Mtn Climbers
30 Reverse Crunches

Corner 4:
10 Merkins
20 Mtn Climbers
30 Reverse Crunches
40 Squats

Good work. Let’s go back in reverse.

Once all were assembled back at the beginning, requested Virus do a ten-count. Before Virus even uttered a sound, Tiger was counting off…!?! Sorry Virus, maybe next time.

Now let’s do a little Dora. Make groups of 3.
Pax 1 runs around the island.
Pax 2 planks
Pax 3 puts in the work.
Rotate in that order until all reps are put in.

100 Flying Squirrels
200 LBCs
300 Lunges
400 SSH

Everybody got after it, but the 400 SSH were dropped due to time. But before heading back, let’s all do 50 of them.

Somewhere in here, there was another 10 count, but YHC asked it of Tiger just because.

All survived the mosey back. As we rolled back in the parking lot, YHC glanced at his watch and saw we were just short of 2 miles at that point, so 2 laps around the parking lot!

That left just enough time for 3 rounds of Mary:
Plank Jacks
Peter Parkers
Bobby Hurleys

Time!

This morning’s verse comes from Matthew 22:36-39
“…which is the greatest commandment in the Law? And He said to him ‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’ ‘This is the foremost commandment.’ ‘The second is like it, You shall love your neighbor as yourself’”

Not too much to add to that. This is “simple”, but it’s not easy.

Nothing new on the announcements side. Lots of events coming up, be sure to signup from something and put in the work.

Lots of hurting and healing in our community, we need to lift those people up.

Tiger took us out.

Thanks for the opportunity to lead today. I encourage all to get out to AOs you don’t frequent.

Watts Up powering down.
