It’s amazing! I cannot get left.

Eleven men gathered on a dryer than expected morning. The disclaimer was tremendous. Trust me. It was great. Off we went:

Yog around the parking lot a bit to count medians, check on construction (gone), etc. Settle into the inner ring of the parking lot for warmups: SSH, IW (non-squat version, Mermaid), Mountain Climber, HR Merkins. Warm up lap around the church and back to the warmup area.

Triple Nickel from there with Jump Squats at the bottom, HR merkins at the top of the hill. A little Mary to recover afterwards.

Mosey up to the tennis pavilion. Partner up. Partner 1 runs around the median over there and back (maybe 150 yards) while partner 2 does an exercise. Flapjack. Step-ups, derkins, lunges, dips. Mary to recover a bit.

Mosey down to the second ring of the parking lot for the Beast – early indications that we, unfortunately, wouldn’t have time to get all the way to the burpees. What a surprise! We got through jump squats, merkins, full sit ups and CDDs.

Mosey back up to the start (during which Alf told me he was pleasantly surprised at the quality of my workout – thanks?). Finish up with Peter Parker and Parker Peter.

Moleskine
Good hard work by the gang this morning. I was glad to see it wasn’t raining when I got out there, but the humidity was rough. Not much longer until we’ll all complain about how cold it is. Alf reviewed his pre-workout hair styling routine with some of us before we got started. I’d put him on the good-hair-at-a-workout Mount Rushmore alongside Deep Dish, Cottonmouth (with the old hairstyle) and Purple Haze. I’m going to start a GoFundMe page to get Pop Tart a shirt that fits – his poor children must wonder why their shirts are always missing.

Announcements:
Labor Day (Monday) convergence at Stonecrest at 7:00. Park in front of the movie theatre.
Saturday (9/3) mini-convergence at The Rock with Day Zero and Ascent/Olympus. Q is Prohibition.

Next time I am lucky enough to have you amongst the PAX when I have the Q, we will not only do Imperial Squat Walkers. ISW’s will follow Smurf Jacks (SSH in squat position). That looks like a tough one Gummy. Aside from the IW’s, that is.

Gotta throw Slim Fast into the Mt Rushmore of Workout Hair crew

I will have you know that shirt is a XL. Maybe I got a boys XL by accident. Damn it. Cottontail was representing the compression shirts too. We can’t help it that we have style.
