YHC posted on Twitter that I had completed my quickest 10k time and soon thereafter got the HL from Hot Pursuit to Q at westsidestory…so I jumped on the opportunity as it would be my VQ. YHC was excited all week about my VQ and found two FNG’s to bring along for the beat down. The Kool-Aid is tasting fantastic!! Today YHC was going for an arm and core beatdown with some leg workout thrown in the mix. As Abu pointed out, the Q juices were flowing this morning in the gloom!!!

The Thang  – 5:30 hard start

The number of the day was 13 for Friday the 13th

• 13 Side Straddle Hops IC
• 13 Merkins IC
• 13 Annie (7 Right Arm, 6 Left Arm) IC
• 13 Big boys OYO

Indian run for 1/4 mile or 1/2 mile and then mosey to the end of Allendale Dr. and back to the flag. Picked up the 6. Now the PAX were warmed up!

• Bearmuda Triangle (being that my M is from Bermuda and we get to travel there often, this was necessary for the VQ) Oh, and we use golf themed triangle shapes at each 30-yard marker. [Marker 1 – golf balls, Marker 2 – golf golves, and Marker 3 golf tees (all items the Noonan would have on hand at any given time)] Plank for the 6.
• Alligator Merkins – 5 steps then a merkin to Marker 1 – golf balls at 30 yards away and mosey back to the start. Al Gore for the 6.
• Bear Crawl Inch Worm – with 10 PAX this was a good challenge with a high level of snot woggling.
• Burp & Merk – pyramid up to 10 merkins – if not already going, this got the juices in the upper body flowing heavy. Al Gore for the 6.

Mosey to the end of Allendale Dr (#2) and back to the flag for some Mary. Picked up the 6. Hot Pursuit was the first man back and led the PAX waiting at the flag with Flutter Kicks until all made it back.

• 13 American Hammers IC
• 13 Rosalita Wips IC

Completed our workout at 6:15 sharp! COT and NAME-O-RAMA of the FNG’s – Property manager Justin walked away with “Section 8” and builder Clark was coined with “Uncle Eddie” from The Grizwald’s classics.

Prayer Request

• Rafiki for performing his brother’s wedding ceremony this weekend…noted he is not a Pastor, pray for them both.
• Uncle Eddie lifting up Jacklyn and Rem Morgan’s daughter’s recent diagnosis.
• Hot Pursuit’s son Chris, for him to have courage/resiliency as he battles life, and praise for a good day yesterday!!
• Rafiki lifting up all the injured PAX. Hope to see you all sooner rather than later!

Announcements

• Sasquatch – sign up to participate in the event and/or with the support team.
• This coming Tuesday, July 17th, for one hour 7:00pm-8:00pm 3rd F Bible study at Hot Pursuit’s (on Integrated Faith). Reach out to him if interested.
• Lunch Tuesday, July 17th, at Sam Jones BBQ for 2nd F.
• Abu wants all PAX (and I quote “if you are not interested you should be”) to get out to Boyd Lee for Broga (with FIA for 30 mins), the following workout (where he promises to kill you metaphorically speaking), and coffeeteria at Bagel Man to put a bow on your Saturday morning.

Moleskin

FNG’s put in work today as it was no easy first workout to attend. YHC brought them out and wanted to make sure they could get a good taste of the Kool-aid. Very thankful to have the support of the PAX who showed/participated. TClaps!!

YHC must add that this was certainly a highlight of my week and I look forward to future Q opportunities!!!
