Montross showed up for what turned into one helluva beatdown.  I deleted the weinke unfortunately so this is what I remember:

We said the pledge, did a warmup and then moseyed over to the town square.  Somewhere along the way he mentioned wanting to run and that was all I needed to hear.  We proceeded to do 4 corners, 4 exercises per corner and then moseyed over to a wall for hip slappers, dirty hookups and wall sits.  We continued our mosey back over towards ingles, then made some laps around different blocks.  Did another round or two of 4 corners and continued to mosey in between.  ended up getting almost 3 miles total and got in some solid work too.

We had a full squad of 9 in the starting lineup on the ballfields of Midoriyama for gummies, space cakes, Afroman, and a sandwich bag full of green stuff.  Hard to recall all the events through the haze, but I’ll do my best:

Slaw posted needing Qs, and 4/20 was available.  YHC felt like the man for the job, as leading the men of Midoriyama is often a worthy challenge, and a themed beatdown seemed to be the way to go.  Many were consulted, including a number of PAX from ours and other regions, Cheech and his buddy Chong, Willie Nelson, and Snoop Doggy Dogg.  We launched with a disclaimer, and a classic hit from Afroman as the beatdown began:

The Thang:

4 exercises, 20 reps each (IC):

• SSH
• Mike Tysons
• Dying Cockroaches
• Goofballs

To the woods for blocks, then to ballfield #2, not on the inside, nobody was gonna score tonight, but we’d use the corners and foul poles as marks:

Bleachers behind home plate, so

• 15 x Dips (IC)

Partner Up

• Partner #1 – 3 x Reverse Lunges (Count Left)
• Partner #2 – Farmers Carry both blocks
• Partner #1 runs to catch Partner #2 when finished
• Switch and Repeato until the team reaches the left field foulpole

From Left Field to Right Field

Rifle Carry the block, stopping at the ballpark lights & dead center field for

• 3 x Overhead Presses

So YHC stashed a bag of goodies in right field, so now it was time to break out the first round

Gummies – each PAX was given a gummy and encouraged not to eat more than 1, especially if they weren’t used to them

YHC also broke out the bag of grass for:

Puff – Puff – Pass

• Circle Up
• All PAX hold Al Gore while standing on the block
• The PAX with the green dropped for 2 x Merkins (OYO), then passed the bag to the next PAX (on the left, obviously) to do the same as he jumped back into an Al Gore
• Repeat til burned out
• Round 2 was the same, but with 6 inches & American Hammers w/block

The field started filling up, and some guys with bats started taking large cuts on the softball field.  It was 5:45pm and they had a game at 6:45.  Why they were there that early, YHC will never know.  It certainly wasn’t to get in a workout.  Doubt any of the guys ever stole 2nd base.  Anyways, that added a layer of confusion while we were already in a state of questionable decision-making, so we could’ve descended into chaos.

We stuck to the Weinke instead

• 30 x Dips (OYO)

3rd base side

• Farmers Carry & Lunges

Left Field to Right Field

• Rifle Carry and Overhead Presses

And it was about this time that they launched one over the fence that wasn’t ever going to hit us, but was a little too close to not get a courtesy warning call.  It’s like not yelling “Fore” when you slice the golf ball into the other fairway. It’s not like the golf ball is likely to hit anyone, you just yell it anyways.  We were their targets.  Like wooden ducks in a carnival game, and we were almost too dazed (from the workout) to realize it.

But realize it we did, so we grabbed up the goodies and headed to Field #3 where there were no overgrown softball mashers looking for target practice an hour before the actual event.

Last Round / Best Round as we delivered a special batch of 420 brownies to the PAX, with some showing restraint after the gummies and declining, while others dove in.  In the meantime, YHC gave instructions for:

Dimebag Destroyer

• Run to Right Field
• 1 x Burpee (OYO)
• Run back to the Left Field foulpole
• 2 x Burpees (OYO)
• Back and forth until the final round of 10 x Burpees (OYO)

And with that we were off, at least those of us that weren’t partaking in the edible delicacies.

Was good to run after a workout full of carries and block work.  We wrapped it up in time to make the long trek back to put the blocks up and put a bow on the day with the COT.  Was fun, stupid, and physically demanding all at the same time.  Mission accomplished.

Moleskin:

Midoriyama is the challenge, and Slaw isn’t afraid to throw it out there.  The heat that we’ll get for the next few weeks will toughen us up.  It’s a sifter to see who can handle it.  There’s been lots of sweat and hard work put in this year.  Keep pushing, even, or really especially, when it gets uncomfortable.  We won’t know what we’re made of until we start reaching beyond what we know we can do.

Thanks for the opportunity to lead
