Six PAX emerged from the gloom and fog at The Ricky Bobby.

Warmup: SSH (IC), Imperial Walkers (IC), Abe Vigodas (IC), stretches

Thing 1: Mosey to the back parking lot for 4 Corners, stacking in each corner, and using the diagonal of the parking lot to keep the sides even!

10 Jump Squats

20 Merkins

30 Mountain Climbers

40 American Hammers

Unstack them in reverse order at the starting corner

Intermission: AMRAP pullups for 1 minute at the playground

Thing 2: Perform the called exercise OYO (Freddie Mercuries, Nolan Ryans, Plank Jacks, etc) until the Q calls “sprint” (or the local rooster crows) and then sprint the length of the side road to the crosswalk. Return to the starting point doing the called exercise: lunge walk, bear crawl, karaokes, high knees, butt kicks.

Thing 3: Partner up for Dora 123

100 tricep dips

200 squats (the “easy” version with your feet flat on the ground instead of heels on the curb!)

300 LBCs

Thing 4: A round of Mary in the Donut Circle in the back parking lot

Mosey to the front for COT

Announcements:

It took an extra 30 seconds to coax the PAX out from under the New Hope Elementary front entrance awning, but once all 13 of us were out in the rain we got started. Watts Up said he was promised that it was going to be a “warm rain” and there were questions about whether (doppler?) Radar is a certified meteorologist.

Warm up:

SSH, SLOW Don Quixotes (Abe Vigodas?), Mountain Climbers, Plank Stretches

Thing 1:

Since it had “stopped raining” (there were disagreements about the accuracy of this), Mosey to the back of the school. Flintstone eventually joined us, and after two attempts at a count-off, we confirmed that there were 13 of us.

11s: Pull-ups at the playground on one side, a burpee in the middle of the parking lot each way (in honor of Goose who couldn’t make it today), and Mike Tysons at the other end of the parking lot.

There were an equal amount of complaints about being out in the rain and NOT getting to do extra burpees for the train.

Thing 2:

Mosey to each light post starting behind the school and up Winder Trail to the stop sign and back. At each light post, a PAX was called on to give an exercise with 5 or 10 reps. Hei Hei called 8 reps, which is neither 5 nor 10. Some PAX favorites: Hot Corner’s 10 hand-release-merkin-burpee-combo (he had a name for it), Orangeman’s six-shooters were already taken, so he blessed us with 5 foxholes. CDDs, tricep dips, more burpees, gravel pickers, squats, merkins, etc, etc.

Mosey back for the COT. Even though we couldn’t get more wet than we already were, the PAX requested to close out under the front awning.

Announcements: Community Foundation Run, no Extinction Run date yet, talk to Hot Corner about sponsoring a table or playing in the golf tournament

Prayer Requests: Watts Up’s coworker, Flintstone’s friend having surgery today, BOS’ 2.0 appendix surgery, Huckleberry
