PAX Choice

We had 11 for a 3-man relay and some PAX choice on a moderate Monday at The Sandlot.  Here’s what I remember.

Hit the sidewalks for some 5 AM EC with Dirt and returned to take my sweet time getting ready for the Q.  Turns out everyone else was too, as there were 3 of us there at 5:27 and 11 by 5:30.  Anyways, time to get started…

The Thang

• 10 x Don Quixotes (IC)
• 10 x Hillbilly Walkers (IC)
• 10 x Moroccan Night Clubs (IC)
• 10 x Goofballs (IC)

YHC brought a kettlebell along for the trip, and one PAX at a time would carry the kettlebell to the next place while the others moseyed and planked til the carrier caught up.  A little Frogger across the street to the back of the other bank parking lot for

• 10 x Mike Tysons (IC)
• 10 x Mountain Climbers (IC)
• 10 x Dying Cockroaches (IC)
• Alphabets (A-I) (For those who don’t know it, start from a 6 inches position and use both legs pointed to write capital letters going through the alphabet)

Mosey around to the front of the building for a 3 man relay.  Split into 3 groups:

• 1’s – Flutters
• 2’s – Lunge Walk across the parking lot to the…
• 3’s – Squats
• Mosey back

So there’s always someone moving and 2 doing exercises.  Rotate through the spots as described above.  We went through so everyone did everything twice.

Today’s 10 count of choice was for any of the PAX to talk about what had gone well so far in 2022.  We heard about Bandit’s M’s new job, good health for PAX and their families, returning from Mexico, and improving mental health for family members.

Load up the bell and head across the street to the funeral home.  for some PAX choice.  One PAX calls an exercise and sends a runner out.  The PAX do the called exercise til the runner returns.  The returning runner calls an exercise and sends out the next guy.  Repeat until the Q is all that’s left to run the last leg.  Here’s what was called:

• YHC – LBCs
• Captain Stubing – SSHs
• El Camino – Merkins
• JJ – Crunchy Frogs
• Timeframe – Freddie Mercuries
• Tube – American Hammers
• Hush Puppy – Balls to the Sky
• Stinky Bird – Big Boys
• Dirt – Burpees
• Bandit – Dying Cockroaches
• Cinderella – CDDs

JJ took the bell from here and ran with it back across the street.  The rest of us picked up the Six.  That’s not true.  Lots of Frogger this time back across Union, but we still had 11, so we didn’t lose anyone.  We paused for another round of…

• Alphabets (J-R)

And then another 3 man relay.  This time…

• 1s – Reverse Crunches
• 2s – Lunge Walk
• 3s – Shoulder Taps
• Mosey Back

Everyone go through every station twice.  Mosey back to the flag so we can circle Snoballs a couple times.  Travel around the building any way you want, except running.  Some bear crawled, some lunge walked, some nurred.  Was a strange sight to say the least.  Once reaching the other side…

• 10 x Dips (IC)
• 10 x Heels to Heaven (IC)

Travel back around the same way we came, however you choose

• 15 x Rocky Balboas (IC)
• 10 x Merkins (IC)

Last round of

• Alphabets (S-Z)

Mosey back around for

• 10 x Dips (IC)

And time.
