LOUD NOISES….

Preamble:

12 pax posted for a beautiful Monday morning beat down at Badapple. Music volume was perfect for our neighbors to the south despite Jackalope’s insistence on cranking it up (that was as loud as it gets 🙂 )

5:30 hit so disclaimer was given and warm-up started.

Warm-O-Rama:

Some of the usual right at the flag (Imp. Walkers, Merkins, Plank Jacks, etc) while the pax waiting on Rusty to make it to the circle. Once he arrived off to the pull up bars for a round of Morning Call. Back to flag now with some Bear Crawl mixed in on the field.

The Thang:

This one stolen from Lumbergh (Academy BD)…thanks!

(See image for rep counts/exercises)

• Teamwork was required this am from the BA crew as a series of exercises would need to be performed in the parking lot with coupons. The only issue is that said exercises along with rep count were on a white board down at the bottom of Zima’s Hill. Any questions or wrong call outs for exercises or rep count, and back to the white board….and start over!!

• 1st trip down and it was already off to a rough start as there seemed to be dissension among the group. Only 30 seconds allowed to look at white board. Back to the p. lot where the pax may have gotten through the first three exercises when Jackalope hollered out the wrong exercise.

• Back down to the bottom and the group definitely seemed to be getting their act together as a line was formed and everyone would “remember” their rep count/exercise. As the group was leaving, it seemed The_Real_Original_Morning_Woody was grumbling in the back about having a better plan….

• Once again the pax FAILED to get through more than about 5-6 exercises…this went on about 4-5 trips down when finally around 6:08 a few brave pax seemed to stay back at the bottom of Zima’s Hill for an extra minute or so and seemed to be up to something. As the group neared the back half of the second column of exercises TheBurn and Goat rattled off the remaining 3-4 rep counts/exercises.

• Really great work TheBurn and Goat….that’s what true leaders do —>they take charge! Proud of you two!!!

Back to flag for Burpees till the six came in!

COT:

Lots of prayers needed this am and surely plenty of unspoken ones as well.

• TheBurn’s dad going through some things health-wise.
• PonyBoy’s grandmother.
• Woody’s brother in law lost job.
• No-See-Um’s sister got demoted from her position at her High School.

Forgive me if anyone was missed.

Announcements:

Spring Convergence – this Saturday at Nirvana! See slack for details and spread the word.

Naked-Man Moleskin:

Jackalope brought YHC some panty (not pantry) liners….some scented some not. Ask him how he can tell the difference 🙂

Solid, lively group on a Monday at Badapple and keep the week going strong men!
