9 Pax pulled in to the best afternoon AO around and under threat of storms and tornados proceeded with the workout. I saw Slaw had an Open Q so I signed up to help out a Site Q as all of us should be doing as much as possible.
Warmup SSH x 15 IC, Patented Right over Left, (Un?)patented Left over right, Cotton Pickers x 10 IC, Low Slow Squats x 10 IC, Hillbillies x 10 IC.
Pledge
Mosey the long way to the picnic shelter in case of rain for the Thang.
Slaw had mentioned that he was going to use a WOD (workout of the day) if he had the Q so I figured I might recycle a WOD I used a while back. I didn’t really tell them it was a WOD but here’s how it started.
Flutter Kicks x 41 or 42 count right leg
Reverse Crunch x 41 or 42 single count
Run down the hill to the pier and back up to the shelter. I usually try to have a hill climb in my Q’s because I am terrible at hill climbs.
Elbow Plank x 1 minute
Imperial Walkers Squats x 41 or 42 count the squat
Run down the hill to the pier and back up to the shelter.
Goofballs x 41 or 42 count right leg

Then I overheard that Seuss would have done Dips so

Mosey back to the flag.
1 minute of Flutter Kicks and Time.
For those who didn’t notice the letters that begin each exercise, it spells Freight’s WODD, extra D for various reasons, some not suitable for publication. I told everyone that none of us would be standing here at Midoriyama without Freight as he was the founder of the AO and has kept it going through the years. As for the 41 or 42 reps, those were guesses of his actual age since he never tells his real age in the nameorama. I thought it would be a good day to recognize Freight as he is going through some changes.
