For any PAX showing up to The Sandlot looking for the Q on the Teamup app, they were going to be sadly disappointed. The scheduled Q took an unexpected trip to the IR so YHC had to step in and help this group of rock pushers start their work week. As we stood around waiting for 0530, there were some comments about when the scheduled Q would show and comments that he’d be coming in hot. It was at that point that YHC informed them of the change and directed them to submit any feedback to The Sandlot’s Director of Customer Satisfaction, Leeeroooy Jennnkins.
0530 on the clock, let’s get started. Disclaimer

Let’s mosey towards Gastone’s Hill. Stop at the first light post for 3 squats. As we continued to mosey the PAX called out, “Car back”. However, no car ever passed. Stop at next light post, 4 squats. As we stopped at this light post, I noticed that there were a couple PAX catching up. It appears we’d picked up one from the car that never passed. Stop at each light post, for squats. At some posts, the count increased by 1, and at some, the count decreased by 1. The final light post was 7 squats.
We ended up at Gastone’s Hill. Up the hill, stop at each mailbox on the right for 1 merkin. At the top of the hill, the youngsters (Maybelline and Amazon) were waiting, holding Al Gore for the 6. It was at this point that YHC looked at my watch for a time check and found that my watch hadn’t started to track my movement. This meant it wouldn’t track the workout. This meant if it’s not on Strava, then it didn’t happen. I actually considered a mosey back to the flag for a restart. At 0545, this was not possible.
So we moseyed down the hill and took a right into one of the cul-de-sacs. We moseyed to the end and restarted, sort of. My watch hadn’t started and we’d picked up a PAX so YHC felt like a reset was in order. So in the back of the cul-de-sac, we did a Halfpipe-esque, whisper version of the warm-up.

Mosey behind Planet Fitness. YHC thought about jumping over the wall into the office parking lot. After thinking better of it, the Q was talked into jumping the wall. The PAX followed. Really wasn’t that dramatic. The wall was pretty short.
