It seems like counting has been somewhat troublesome for some PAX lately. Whether it’s counting light posts going down the road or keeping up with rounds during 11’s, math can be hard. We’d put our counting skills to the test this morning.

YHC arrived on a Monday morning at The Sandlot ready to get to work. A good crowd as usual was ready to go at 0530 so let’s get started.

Warm-up
SSH IC x 12
As we moved into Merkin position, Roscoe asked if there a reason we did 12. YHC didn’t really have a reason for that particular number so there was an awkward silence. Roscoe said it must be because it was the 12th. He also noted that it was his anniversary. The 24th to be exact. Numbers, everywhere numbers.
Merkins IC x 12 (which is really 24 merkins, one for each year of marital bliss for Roscoe and Mrs. Roscoe)
LBCs IC x 12
Imperial Walks x 12

The Pledge

Let’s mosey. Stopped at the parking lot behind the CaroMont Health building down from Snoball’s. Let’s test those counting skills with a round of 11’s.

10 Mike Tyson’s on the lower side of the parking lot. 1 Jump Squat on the upper side.
Back and forth until we got to 1 Mike Tyson and 10 Jump Squats.

Let’s mosey. Stopped at the base of Gaston’s Hill. Now let’s see if we can count the number of mail boxes up and down the hill. Based on YHC’s Back to School Q at The Labyrinth a month ago, there should be 27 if you count the full loop. At each mailbox, 1 burpee.

After that lap, time to mosey again. Through the Dollar General parking lot to the corner of the Food Lion parking lot. Time for some 4 Core-ners.

1st corner – 10 Crunchy Frogs
2nd corner – 10 Crunchy Frogs and 20 Dying Cockroaches
3rd corner – 10 Crunchy Frogs and 20 Dying Cockroaches and 30 LBCs
4th corner – 10 Crunchy Frogs and 20 Dying Cockroaches and 30 LBCs and 40 Flutter Kicks

As we started at the first corner, I believe someone said we should have done 12. Q fail. Would have been a great opportunity to test our ability to count by 12’s. Let’s reverse and try it again.

1st corner – 12 Crunchy Frogs
2nd corner – 12 Crunchy Frogs and 24 Dying Cockroaches
3rd corner – 12 Crunchy Frogs and 24 Dying Cockroaches and 36 LBCs
4th corner – 12 Crunchy Frogs and 24 Dying Cockroaches and 36 LBCs and 48 Flutter Kicks

Mosey back to Snoball’s.

We got back in time to do a minute worth of Mary.
