  • PAX: Dirt (R), Stinky Bird, Captain Stubing, Folgers (R), JJ, Whoopee (R), Hush Puppy

8 men showed up for 3 Corners and plenty of lunge-lunge-burpees.  Here’s what we did:

EC was Dirt, Whoopee, and YHC.  Dirt and Whoopee went all the way out to Hudson and back.  YHC wasn’t so ambitious.  We all made it back for the main event.

The Thang:

  • 15 x SSH (IC)
  • 15 x Imperial Walkers (IC)
  • 15 x Dying Cockroaches (IC)
  • 15 x Mike Tysons (IC)

Mosey towards Martha’s.  Fake left turn to the main entrance.  Mosey on down to the grounds entrance.  From here, we choose to enter the sacred grounds by:

  • Lunge-Lunge-Burpee

Once we reached the center of the fields, it was time for some stackable Three Corners.

  • 10 x Merkins
  • Run back out the length of the field
  • 10 x Merkins
  • 15 x Squats
  • Run the outfield fence
  • 10 x Merkins
  • 15 x Squats
  • 20 x Toe Touches
  • Run back to the center of the fields

Once we were all back, we

  • Bear Crawl around the concession stand

You know who is great at bear crawls?  Short Sale! That’s who!  And he wasn’t even there!

At any rate, that was so much fun we did it again, using a different field and different exercises

  • 10 x Superman Pullups
  • Run back out the length of the field
  • 10 x Superman Pullups
  • 15 x Monkey Humpers
  • Run the outfield fence

“I don’t always hump, but when I do, I hump monkeys”

  • 10 x Superman Pullups
  • 15 x Monkey Humpers
  • 20 x Freddie Mercuries
  • Run back to the center of the fields

Once we were all back, we

  • Bear Crawl around the concession stand

Enough of that stupid, there are plenty of other stupid things to do, so we left the sacred grounds by:

  • Lunge-Lunge-Burpee

And went back towards the Turd Shack where it was noted that there had been many rounds of 11s done before.  Today would be another one of those days, but complicated, because teachers like making things unnecessarily complicated.

  • Mosey to the other side of the parking lot
    • 11 x Nolan Ryans R
    • 11 x Oblique Crunches R
    • 11 x Crunchy Frogs
  • Mosey back, stopping halfway for
    • 1 x Burpee
  • Return to the other side for
    • 11 x Nolan Ryans L
    • 11 x Oblique Crunches L
    • 11 x 4-count Flutter Kicks
  • Repeato, counting down on each side by 1 each time (except for the burpees)

Work til we’re close to time, then haul back so we’re not late, with a Jailbreak at the top of the lot.

COT came, and Folgers cough got a little strong.  Phlegm came up, but nothing else.  He turned to the group and just said “Almost”

Announcements:

  • 2nd F Lunch
  • Retreat
  • Spots on Smokey Mountain Relay available
  • Walk option at The Sandlot

Prayer Requests:

  • Families
  • Student at YHC’s school

Moleskin:

Folgers pushes it, man.  I know when he first showed up, not knowing anyone in the group, then splashed merlot multiple times his first post, we weren’t sure he’d come back.  Stinky Bird stuck with him that day, and he had quite a streak going splashing merlot.  Then he didn’t, and now he goes as hard as anyone out there.  And now he’s closing in on 100 posts.  There are chapters to his story that none of us have read, but I know we’re all glad to have Folgers out with us in The Gloom.

Thankful for the opportunity to lead.
