Preamble:

Not a professional, monitor your own health status, stay hydrated, modify where needed. Lets do this.

Warm-O-Rama:

Not sure what that means. Since the majority pre-rucked I think we were warm. (But again not a professional)

The Thang:

It was noted that not all PAX arrived with a coupon. (Even though it was clearly stated in the Pre-Blast)  In Keeping with the 1st rule of No-See-Um leadership (When in charge take charge) a modification was needed to ensure all PAX received a fulfilling experience... and thus was born "The Sweep3r." Definition =  When any member of the PAX fails to bring a coupon to a workout involving coupons said member of the PAX will be required to run circles around all members carrying coupons while in transit. Mozey to the track 7 PAX carried coupons and 6 PAX performed the Sweep3r. Zac Bryan/The War and Treaty "Hey Driver" was played. PAX executed Hillbillies for the duration of the song and 1 burpee each time the words "Hey Driver" were heard. Next was the hard CORE mile. 20 gas pumpers (either Alabama or Carolina style Q drives a Tesla so didnt differentiate) run half lap and do 40 LBCs, run half lap and repeat for 4 laps = 1 mile.  In accordance with leaving no man behind the PAX were instructed to conduct Mercans until the 6 before starting the next lap. Mozey to field in front of NMS previous coupon carriers traded places and executed the Sweep3r.  On the field, in full view of a gathering crowd at Milton High School, PAX performed Fire Hydrants in cadence 10 each leg. Mozey to pull up bars. PAX needed no encouragement and fell right into carrying coupons and Sweep3ering. Q counted number of PAX and made a failed attempt at math to create rotation stations. AMRAP Freddy Mercuries, Mercans, Flutters, Squats, and LBCs (added by Tank due to Q's faulty math)  for the duration of time taken for each 2 man group to do 10 Pullups. Mozey to turf practice field.  Left coupons outside of field to protect the investment in new turf by all Fulton County PAX. Starting at Goal Line do 40 American Hammers, Bear Crawl 10 yards, rinse and repeat to 50 Yard line then sprint back to goal. Being that Q made a speech about form and intentionality prior to BD Q thought PAX would understand that 1 hammer on each side constituted a count of 1 however some PAX decided to take a Shortcut and cheat themselves quickly Bear Crawling the next 10 yards.  Karma came quick for that group  as they reached the 40 yard line and realized this was not a soccer pitch and were thoroughly confused as to the location of the 50 yard line.  All in all PAX found their way back to goal line and we headed back to the flag Sweep3ring and Coupon Carrying the entire distance. At flag we conducted the Mercan circle of death til time was called.

COT:

Prayer requests for Sprockets sister-in-law battling cancer, Spider, Goose, and Groundhog.

Naked-Man Moleskin:

Nah... except there was some discussion about a certain new members given name and how quickly it has evolved into absolute badassery.   Given the time and growing crowd across the street we ended the conversation not wanting to Push our chances of getting a table for coffee.
