So now we start at 5:30ish?



So now we start at 5:30ish?

A last minute Q switch-a-roo as Mermaid, who already has 8 other Q’s this week pinged a few of us and said he was driving back to the Keys and wasn’t sure what time he would return and what state of mind he might be in after 10+ hours on I-95.  So 11 of us go me instead of Mermaid and dealt with it fairly well.  Thanks for being so nice.

Clock strikes 5:30, about 5 PAX ready, 3 still emerging from cars, 2 cars coming in.  So a disclaimer and a 2 minute late start.  Mosey around the school and to the back parking lot for COT.

Mumble chatter and complaining starting already.  (Not saying who started it, but the name rhymes with Mummy)

SSH, IW, Merkins, Mountain Climbers, and Lunges.  (O’Tannenbaum appeared somewhere in the middle of all of this)

Mosey up to the playground.

Triple Nickle for Mermaid.  5 Pull-ups here, 5 burpees on the other side of the island, repeat 5 times.  Some Mary to wait for the six.

Mosey to the track with the new fencing to keep everyone contained.

11’s – Derkins with feet on top of fence on one side, Shoulder taps with feet on fence on the other side.  (Do both shoulders for one rep)

Some Mary to wait of the six.

Mosey over to rock pile and grab a lifting rock.

25 OH Presses with rock, 25 merkins.  Repeat with rounds of 20, 15, 10, and 5.

Head back to launch for some plank work and heels to heaven to close things out.

Done

Moleskine:

Some running (about 3 miles) and some shoulder work today should have left everyone feeling fantastic on the first official day back from Spring Break.  Rachel and Purell lapped most of the PAX on the Trip Nickel and 11’s.  McGee wasn’t far behind but his form (or lack of it) might have been saving him some time.  Some grumbling and jokes about the feet on the fence.  “Can you reach it Alf?”  “More like Dry Docks for you, Alf.”   Honestly, who really uses the top shelf of the kitchen cabinets anyway?

Pro was complaining he tore a shoe on the fence and may have gotten stuck up there for a moment.  I’d feel bad about it, but I have those same shoes and they are old enough to be 3 deep in the boot camp rotation at this point.  He’s already gotten his money’s worth.  Plus I had that solid disclaimer which absolves me personally of any liability.

Nair was looking strong after just FNG’ing a couple of weeks ago.  And he thought McGee was old enough to post at the Fishing Hole which was awesome.

Thanks to Squid for the takeout.  Good to have the site chaplain back out after a few weeks off on IR.

The shoes are definitely deep in the rotation and mainly for potential sloppy conditions. Which at that AO is every time. Not too upset about the hole.

It did allow me to teach Nair about modifying and how much quicker you get when you stop putting your feet on the fence.
