Holding the Poop

Holding the Poop

Ten men gathered for the substitute Fire Hazard Q.  The details were vague the night before other than we were going to find some pull up bars.  Unfortunately One Niner thought The Brave started at 5:30 and searched for the next forty five minutes looking for us where there would be pull up bars.

Disclaimer was given.  There was mention out of the gate about needing to poop.  Options were given but Transporter decided he would withhold.  A quick jog up to the Starbucks parking lot for a intense warm up.  IW x 10.

We crossed over Johnston Rd and stopped at the corner of Johnston and Ballantyne Commons.  Instructions were given that we were running to the corner of Ballantyne Commons and Community House.  You were to stop at every third light post and alternate between merkins x 10 and LBCs x 10.  Collect the six and head to the next round.

Run down Community House towards Johnston.  The destination was the stop light at the corner of Community House and Endhaven.  Again stopping at every third light for diamond merkins x 10 and American Hammers x 10.  Collect the six and mosey over to Endhaven Elementary.

At Endhaven divide up into teams of two.  Size and speed do not matter.  As a team do 100 pull ups.  Partner one runs to the stop sign on Endhaven while partner two knocks out the pull ups.  We called it before most could complete the cycle.  Some people were worried about getting back on time or worried about doing 100 pull ups.  You know who you are.

Mosey back over to Community House and Endhaven for the return trip.  No big surprise here.  Stop at every third light to do wide arm merkins x 10 and knees to chest x 10.  Stop at the corner of Ballantyne Commons and Community House.  Collect the six.

Continue to head back to the AO stopping at every three lights.  At this point Transporter was asking about bathroom options.  Several were given but they did not have the correct thread count on the toilet paper so he continued to clinch.  We did military press merkins x 10 and flutters x 10.  Cross over Johnston and stop at the B of A parking lot.  partner back up and do 100 merkins total while your partner runs to the first lit light on the left hand side.  Walk over and circle up in the parking lot for two minutes of the Haggis plank.   Modify as needed.  There was a lot of modification.  Done!

Moleskin: Great seeing Fahvra back out.  Always appreciate it when he can make over the state line.  Glad the family is doing well and good luck next week at the Spartan.  For the rest of you doing that thing good luck as well.

Glad Doc and Transporter made the drive this morning.  Good to see our Union County people.  Transporter made a good point that we need to return the favor and get out to their AOs more often as well as take some Q spots.  Big numbers there.

Also glad Nard Dog found us and sorry One Niner did not.  He tried hard.

We got over 5 miles in so good work by all.  We do not get to do pull ups enough.  They are hard after the first twenty.

Announcements: Preblast coming out for the Christmas Party today, tomorrow or soon.

Joe Davis sign ups are live and the price goes up 11/1.  Get it done.

Enjoy the day.
