Stern reached out to YHC over a month ago letting me know that he was handing over the site to Backhoe and was trying to line him up with a handful of good Qs for the upcoming workouts. Not sure how Stern thought I should be on this elite list but none the less, I jumped at the opportunity to lead! Was glad that the back healed enough that I could still handle the duties. YHC, Patch and Fruity Pebbles met for a little 0440 ruck action and logged 2.5 miles. 5:30 fast approached and were joined by 14 more PAX. Circled up, disclaimer and we were off…

WARM UP

The Thang
Kicked off the morning with a little 1/2 mile fun.

1st intersection- 10 merkins and 30 squats

2nd intersection- 20 merkins and 40 squats

3rd intersection- 30 merkins and 50 squats

4th intersection- 40 merkins and 60 squats, then back to the flag

Rinse and Repeat but with the following exercises;

1st intersection- 10 WWIIs and 30 hallelujahs

2nd intersection- 20 WWIIs and 40 hallelujahs

3rd intersection- 30 WWIIs and 50 hallelujahs

4th intersection- 40 WWIIs and 60 hallelujahs

After last intersection, mosey to the nearest ball field. Partner up. Partner A will run from home plate to the foul pole and back while Partner B holds People’s Chair. Partners flapjack. Next, do the same thing but with Balls to the Wall.

We stayed on the field for some Bear Crawl HR Derby. Starting at home plate, bear crawl to 1st base and perform 10 merkins

Bear crawl from 1st to 2nd base and perform 10 diamond merkins

Bear crawl from 2nd to 3rd base and perform 10 ranger merkins

Moleskin
Great push and even better mumblechatter by the PAX today. With it being pretty chilly this morning, main goal was to keep the PAX moving for most of the workout. First time being able to Q #Buildup under the new Site Q. Backhoe is bringing a lot of energy and excitement to the AO so numbers will continue to grow out here! Thanks to Backhoe for the opportunity to lead! Until next time…

Stabler Out!
