Ultimate Football and some Scraps

Well I finally talked my boy into coming to a workout. Like his dad mornings aren’t really his thing. However when I told him my plans for this afternoon’s workout his natural competitive spirit kicked in. That and an opportunity to show me up and talk a little smack to me while doing so. (I don’t have a clue where he gets that from) Since we had an FNG I attempted a proper disclaimer. We then got in a very quick warmup and headed to the small soccer field which was being used so we quickly diverted to one half of one of the larger soccer fields. We picked teams and were quickly getting after it. Team Freight vs Team Wiki was quickly one sided but eventually became a little closer. In the end I’ll say the quick start and steady play from Team Freight was too much for us on Team Wiki to overcome. We ran a little over but managed to get back quickly enough to get Jake named and a quick COT. I will have to admit a huge Q Failure as I forgot to get the Pledge as I usually get that in early right after the warmup sorry about that guys. All in all it was a good time and thanks for showing. We named our FNG Scraps since the guys in attendance said it looked like all I allowed him to eat was the scraps at the end of my meals. It was either that Bol Bol, Manute, Stick, etc…y’all should get the point.

On a serious note Blart went down with a bad back spasm. So y’all be thinking about him as it looked very painful.

Prayers: Hall Family, Gavel and his family, My mom, Huck, Turtle Man

Praise: Huck, Broke’s daughter, God for all our many blessings

 

VQ at SIB

About 9:30pm Monday night, YHC finds himself in the midst of a 12-strong group chat, of whom he knows maybe half. Site Q is down range, back-up Q is home with 5 day old baby, 3rd string says he’d rather lift weights, and 4th string defers to “whoever the 910 number is”. Since YHC is from Fayetnam, he finds himself with an abrupt VQ, less than 8 hours away, most of which time he would prefer to spend asleep.

A route was mentally drawn and work was put in the following morning. Might be the first and last time “the guy from the coast” gets to Q at SIB, but it was fun while it lasted…

Back to Where It All Started (Folsom 3-21-24)

Having attended several weekday mornings at Folsom over the last couple of weeks due to a night class at the Fire Department, Pony Boy asked if I’d be interested in Qing one.  This is where it all started for me.  BTW Boondock I know how you feel when someone (aka Gearwrench) invites you out and doesn’t show themselves right Sparky!!!  Comin in hot I arrived with about “2 minutes Q”… gosh I hope Gumby never copyrights that saying!  Solid crowd of 9 HIM showed to know!  The Thang…

Warm Up:  My usual 60 second circle (always good for a laugh & to get the mumblechatter started)  Anytime you try to get guys to count off that early in the morning is a hoot!   High Knees Running / 1 Burpee / SSHs / 2 Burpees / Moroccan Night Clubs / 3 Burpees / Imperial Walkers / 4 Burpees / Rt Ovr Lt / Lt Ovr Rt / 5 Burpees

Mosey to the Flagpole stopping at each light post (not flagpole) for a 1/2 Burpee then flip to a Crunchy Frog

Pledge

Mosey to the middle backside of the Citizens Resource Center where we partnered up.  Booyah Merkin in the middle, crisscross & run to the end for a SSH counting up to 11.  That road was a little longer than I remember!

Mosey to the exercise shed stopping at the stairs for a 5-count calf raise at each step.  Over to the shed for a 1 minute round-robin on each piece of equipment.  BTW that was Tony Little with the Gazelle machine!  Omaha with about “2 minutes Q” (Dang I owe Gumby more royalties).

Mosey back to the flag w/ another 5-count calf raise on the stairs and a final 22 for the Vets!

Guys it was an honor to lead you this morning.  Hope you enjoyed it.  Thanks.
