COT
YE OLDE MOLESKINE
A little confusion at the start of the morning as YHC announced that Salt Lick was Q’ing as the pax wondered who was in charge. He had prepared to Compass but not for Kevlar but even after the deer in headlights expression SL cried “follow me!” YHC pulled the reigns in and opted for 10 burpees OYO and off we mosied to the rock pile. LARGE rocks SPEARHEAD style was the instruction and most heeded the command but for 49er. Geraldo went big, Good Hands went bigger, but Brown was the one who extracted a rock that we could have spray painted outside the high school.
Lots of continuous movement today with the extended hill work with the partner on the rocks. The burpee segment was extremely brutal with the pax looking a little queasy after the 5,10, 15 combos. Susudio was bouncing back against his haters from Wednesday putting in a solid performance that made those 20 years or so younger feel like the fools! Taking a break between rounds saw some interesting plank work that was compared with the game Twister at one point. It was mentioned that the game Twister coupled with a tube of Johnsons baby oil makes for a great wedding gift and I’m sure our father of 10, Cottontail, can attest to that!
Rock Webb’s brought out the heckling as the fellas thought we were going up and then down the ladder. Shrapnel was flying from the large rocks hitting the pavement which could well have been merlot spilling of we had come back down. Instead we hit number 10 and were thankfully out of time.
Hats off to Chanel No. 5 for his second post at Covenant Day this week!
