8 PAX posted at Midoriyama on Thursday.  It was cloudy all day but the sun made an appearance just in time! Being a gracious Q I took us to some shade upon request. It didn’t help much since the humidity reached 237%.

Warmup:

SSH x 20 ic

Let’s mosey

The Thang:

At the far soccer field we lined up at one goal line for what I call the SA. His birthday was this week so a little shout out to him. Now to be clear this isn’t one of my hero WOD’s but he’s alright. The SA was created from trash talk and during a time Nantan Cooper said F3 wasn’t allowed but those with a rebellious spirit still met to exercise and stayed 6 feet apart. SA only believes you need about 4-5 exercises so I created a WOD with just that.

The SA

10 Bonnie Blairs(count one leg only)

20 WWI

30 Merkins

40 Squats

NUR 100 yds, RUN back

Rinse and repeat for 35 minutes then do a round of Iron Hulk.

You can make the SA as hard as you want. You can push yourself or just slow down and work through it.  Yesterday I tried to hang with SA and my legs are paying for it today.

COT:

Pledge

Namerama

Announcements-Nothing new but a ton going on

Prayer Request-Double stuff’s dad and friend, SA and family, Slaw, Clavin. Praise report-YHC has lost a little weight and I’m no longer considered obese just over weight.

SA took us out

Moleskin:

What I like about SA is he is an exaggerated version of YHC. He doesn’t always let the words fly to just anybody like I do but he doesn’t mind letting them go. He doesn’t show emotion and doesn’t let smack talk affect him. As a matter of fact he is probably the only person I know that engages the smack talk as mush as I do. I just love to give and get it! So much fun! Anyway deep deep deep down he’s a pretty good guy and even though we don’t always like it we need the physical battflippers to push us. I do hope that one day he starts listening during Q-source instead of trolling on Strava.
