Preamble:

First beat down of Halpha Day!  Let the fun begin.  Always nice to do some crazy SH!T with like minded men. Intro to the park was the theme so those unfamiliar with the park could see what Boneyard has to offer.

Warm-O-Rama:

Mosey around the parking lot while Speedo went to retrieve a late arrival (guess the PAX and you win a prize).  Gathered by the pickle ball courts and did some SSH, imperial walkers, weed pickers, worlds greatest stretch, and tempo merkins.

The Thang:

Moseyed to the tunnel where we did 10 burpees and ran a lap around the pond (x3) Moseyed to the Veterans Memorial Wall and for every bench we encountered on the way, performed an exercise, alternating between 10 SSH and 10 Monkey Humpers.  Some were concerned it was too light out for the Monkey Humpers.  At least I didn’t pair it with pickle pounders. On the wall,  we did 20 dips and ran around the wall (x3). Short mosey to Feather’s Clock tower.  There we started at 12 o’clock and bear crawled counter clockwise.  At every 15 minute, performed different merkins (diamonds, regular, wide, and staggered).  Count started at 20 but Q quickly realized his mistake and modified it to a 10 count right after the diamonds.  Back at 12 o’clock, we started another round but this time, lunges as the MOT with 10 squats at every 15 minutes. Mosey to the soccer fields since the lacrosse field was taken by other athletes.  There we performed 11’s with Big boys on one side and gas pumpers at the mid field.  And finished with mosey back to the flags.

COT:

Prayers to those participating in the middle of the night as participation may be smaller than usual with the number of events occurring this same weekend.  NLB also hosting BD and breakfast.

Naked-Man Moleskin:

Thanks for all who came out and joined me for the start of Halpha Day.  Was a pleasure and next time will try to make it a bit easier.  Mentioned this to a few PAX the following week and will share it here as well…I learned that I will be in a bad mood the following day from all the BD’s so next Halpha Day, I am isolating myself from the family to rest and fully recover.
