Mosey around parking lot to front of SCMS for COP:

SSH X 25

Imperial Walker X 20

Windmills X 15

Mountain Climbers X 25

Mosey down Woodfox to find a hill that can dish out the pain.  Along the way we sprinkled in butt kickers, high knees, karaoke left then right.  Stopped for a stint of bear crawl and lunge walks allowing the PAX to regroup and stay together.   The hill on Rising Meadow may sound gentle and soft but it’s a real wake up call.  Perfect place for a round of 7s: squats at the bottom and bomb jacks on top.  To allow the PAX to catch their breath after completing the 7s we rested by laying our backs.  And doing flutters X 20 and dolly’s X 20.  The PAX having recovered was delighted to do another round of 7s; this time with merkins and Carolina dry docks.  In the interest of time, the Q cut this short to begin the mosey back to campus.  Stopped partway back for a round of Freddie Mercury’s and LBCs (X 25 each).  Returning to campus we grabbed some wall and rested in the people’s chair with a few rounds of air presses (X 50, 100 and 125).   After a quick mosey to the back lot, the PAX again laid down on the ground for the final couple of minutes.  While there 25 American Hammers were banged out and a round of the protractor.

Moleskin:

As it has been the past few weeks, the gloom was very thick this morning.  Add to it, it was a Monday morning.  The energy and motivation felt low at the beginning – or maybe it was just my interpretation.  #TClaps to Insomniac who faithfully called out the repetitions in the COP.

I’m not a regular at Basecamp so it was great to meet a few new guys and see some guys again I have met only a few times before:  Jello, Balk, Floor Slapper, Thunder Road,  Adobe, Jet Fuel and Slum Dog.  Solid effort turned in by all.  Always great to see Fireman Ed, Gooney, Drano, Costanza and Insomniac as our paths tend to cross frequently.  Thanks for the opportunity to lead and I’m glad to Q anytime you’ll have me.  Also I am thankful for the grace extended by the Pax.  Especially those not participating in the BRR – as this workout was designed to focus on legs and hills in preparation for BRR.  Thanks too to Insomniac for taking us out in humility and recognition of how great is our God!

Apologies for the late BB – comz/access issues prevented me from posting this in a timely fashion.  Thankfully, those have been resolved.
