For some reason 2 Dallas boys got thrown together to fight it out at the 1st round of Q vs Q in Dallas! Wirenut had home field advantage, but I was seeded higher (just barley 7 vs 8) so I figured I’d let him go first! Wirenut always has tough workouts, usually with block or sandbags or something so I figured I would do something not the same as that. I actually had 2 things planed depending on the amount of pax and the weather conditions. I also know this was a game and I was going to use everything at my disposal to win…everything is fair and love and war!

Flintstone gives us instructions and off we go! Wirenut does the normal warm up stuff and then pops open the back of the f150 and everyone grabs a coupon. most are cinder blocks but there are a few sandbags too . The Punisher!. everyone started at one end of the narrow parking lot and did 5 burpees to start, Lunge walk to next station 5 burpees and rows, then mosey to next station and 5 burpees 10handrelease merkins, mosey to next station 5 burpees and 10 jump squats. then make a lap around the parking lot back to the start and do it again. This went on till Omaha was called then we switch to Dora 2 rounds of each Thrusters, Curls, and Triceps extensions while partner 2 ran. at 730 the bell rang!

Based on Pax count and condition of the field I choose wenkie #2…Ok let get outta here mosey this way. We had a big crowd so at every major intersection we stopped and did plank jacks till the 6 showed up. Remember leave on man behind! We moseyed in this manner until we got to the big church parking lot across Trade street. Now we got some room to spread out and get some work done! First exercise called was 11s Booyah Merkins w/ your partner and big boy sit-ups on either end of the lot. Everyone pushed through this and the FNG was digging hard we all helped him finish. Next up was to in honor of my buddy SA who did even bother to show up. Route 66 Mike Tysons Bear Crawl between the parking spaces. The lot was a little short so it ended up being route 36 instead. Time was running down so we did some Mary. Circled up and I let the pax with the most post call the exercise. Dr. Suess called Flutters, next was Def Leopard w/ LBCs. Time to get back to the start, we moseyed back across Trade St. (that was sketchy) and made it back in time for Slaw to call kraken burpees. Thanks Slaw you bat flipper.

Time!

Flintstone started passing out the voting papers, I ran to the Station Wagon ..yes I drove my 1984 mercury woodgrain wagon race/street car .. I figured a cool car couldn’t hurt . I had refreshments for the pax as they did there voting witch I’m sure had no effect on the actual voting. Maybe. When it was all said and done it was close,
Ball Joint 15
Wirenut 12
Freight and Stogie both got some votes and i think mickey mouse did too.
