So that’s how you write a Backblast…..

By popular demand, your Centurion Backblast goes something like this:

Shortly before dawn broke on the peaceful transition of power, a record number of Pax posted at Centurion. It was Yuge. Overflow parking extended beyond Tower Place. If you heard differently, it was the lying media.

The Thang:
Run a lap around the football field, ending at the parking deck.
SSH x 25
Squat x 20
IW x 20

Partner Up for Catch Me If You Can.
Partner 1 does 5 Burpees while Partner 2 starts a run to the top of the deck. Partner 1 chases 2, flapjack when you catch him, up to top.
Run down stairs and wait for called exercise. Rinse and Repeat CMIYC.

Round 1: Walter N’Diaye. The evil half-brother of Makhtar N’Diaye, plank with your head about 8-10 inches from a wall. Cadence is: Right palm pressed and kept on wall, Left palm pressed and kept on wall, Right hand down, Left hand down. x 15 or so.
CMIYC back to top, run down stairs.
Round 2:People’s Chair, Left leg high, regular, Right leg high, recover.
Balls to Wall, Left hand high, regular, Right hand high, recover.
Audible on CMIYC: Partner 2 does Backwards run, so Partner 1 has a chance to catch him after Burpees.
#YHCcouldn’tcatchJamboree
Round 3:Balls to Wall, walk hands out to plank and back. x 5
CMIYC again, then out to benches.

Partner 1 does Bearcrawl up the ramp, Lunge Walk back to benches while Partner 2 does 10 Step Ups and 10 Derkins, repeating til P1 returns. Flapjack. Rinse and Repeat.

Mary at bottom of deck. Move to avoid cars. Move again back to launch site.
LBC, Freddy Mercury, Dolly, etc.

Moleskin

Cobains for the tardy Backblast. It was an honor to lead this group. 5 Respects, and 2 under 20 YO. Way to bring it out, men.
Everyone was busting it on the deck chases. Jamboree is an absolute beast, Rachel is always leading the charge, Chelms defies Father Time. We have 2 or 3 more on the cusp of Respect as well (Abacus, Pulp Fiction, Paper Jam, I’m looking at you)
I value the camaraderie more than you know. The Fitness is a nice bonus.

Solid Q Snowflake. Many happy returns to Walter. In fact, he returned at DMZ Monday. One of you Respects should tell Clubber that he will miss out on all of your wisdom should he wear those headphones again.

You got this in right under the deadline. The national media (Margo and I) were ready to file a BB full of misleading information and accusations of Snowflake ties to Putin. Wiki-leaks contributions to this BB were being gathered. I can’t wait for the first Centurion Q that misses the BB deadline.
