Appreciate the opportunity to lead Slalom!  You are such an awesome Workout Q brother!  #theschoolyard is such a great AO with many options.  Yhc wasn’t feeling too well, so a plan was made to get rid of whatever yhc was coming down with.  Disclaimer given, Pledge of Allegiance, and off we went!

Warm Up (All exercises In Cadence): 20 – SSH, 10 – Merkins, 10 – WW1’s, 10 Baby Arm Circles (10 Fwd/10 Rvs), 10 Copperhead Squats.

Find a Spot on the wall for Elevens.  BTTW Get Ups on the wall, Burpees at the walkway.  Bear Crawl after BTTW, Lunge after Burpees.  Doing this in cadence was interesting, yhc didn’t want to have a six, and tried to keep the pax together, so elevens were done in cadence.  Lots of mumblechatter, Slim killed those burpees, and Cold Cut is not human!

• 10 – Michael Phelps, and 10 – Good mornings to prepare the pax for next step.  Mosey to the track for some four corners (Fruitycides – yhc’s take on suicides.)

Corner 1 – 10 (IC)- Merkins/Overhead Claps/Hallelujahs.  Mosey with pace to Corner 2 – 10 (IC) V-Ups/WW1’s/American Hammers.  Mosey to Corner 1, repeat 5 reps (IC) of each of corner 1 exercises.  Mosey to Corner 2 and repeat 5 (IC) reps of Corner 2 exercises.  Yhc instructed the pax to line up single file, when yhc really meant shoulder to shoulder (Yhc mentioned to the pax that English is not yhc’s first language).  Sprint to corner 3!  String is stupid fast!  At corner 3 – 10 (IC) Squat Jumps/High Knees/Jump Lunges.

• Yhc failed twice to instruct the last exercise of the set, calling out squat jumps twice instead of jump lunges.  2 penalty burpees.  Time ran out, so we passed on the 4th corner.

Mosey back to the flag – enough time for 10 Fruity Mercuries!  6:15

Moleskin – As yhc was hearing about all the suicides going on with those close to us (pax), I was really grieved, and couldn’t help but to call upon God for strength!  This is why F3 matters!  An author once wrote, “To all who are reaching out to feel the guiding hand of God, the moment of greatest discouragement is the time when Divine help is nearest.”  Be the hope for someone today!  Offer Jesus, the hope and the desire of all ages, to our 2.0’s, M’s, friends, family!  As my brother String said, meet them where they are, and let Jesus transform and comfort!  Love one another, don’t be afraid to be vulnerable, and allow God’s light to shine in and through you brothers!  And don’t ever give up, because life is worth the living, because Jesus lives!

Blessings – FP
