Money

It was a cold November morning. Only Snowflake and Ice9 were in the parking lot as the clock approached 6:30.  The unpersuaded, unmotivated men of Union County were slumbering off a turkey-induced haze, allowing the previous days’ meals to congeal.  Then Ben Stein’s Money pulled in, and the three set off.  Here is what they did:

THE THANG:

Appetizer

• SSH
• IW
• Merkins
• Dips
• Mosey behind the school

Soup Course

• People’s chair (with legs up and such)
• Three rounds of rump-slappers (Red Dogs™) interspersed with incline merkins
• Mosey to see that the tennis courts are locked — pretend that was intentional and come across a medium hill.  Plankorama
• 5 minutes of hills.  (Run up and down the hill for 5 minutes.)
• Mosey to visiting team area

First Serving

• Bear crawls
• Crab walks
• Lunges
• Some minutes of Mary (LBCs, low slow flutters, heels to heaven, bicycle — lots of failure)
• More lunges
• Mosey to flag planted in raised brick walls that freeze easily

Seconds

• Squats (a lot of them) and step-ups (a lot of them, too)
• Dips and incline merkins for mercy
• Three minutes of burpees (actually until the Q hit 50)
• Mosey to the track

Dessert

• Backward runs
• Monster walks
• Lunges
• Pull-ups on Weddington’s pull-up bar (yes, you read that right)
• Forward runs

More dessert

• Go back to start with:
• shuttle runs
• bear crawls
• 15 merkin pit stops (about 4 of them)

MOLESKIN

• Great morning to workout in the cold
• Though we had three men, what is better than starting the morning by working out with two of your closet friends?  Not much.  Not much indeed.
• Ben Stein’s money hung in during some work that was making Ice9’s legs a little shaky.  Look out for him.  He is a man.
• Snowflake was his usual, ridiculous, respect-earning self.  He was just showing off on the pull-up bars.
• Intimidator had an excused absence for a torqued back, and promises to be back Saturday.
• I hear Hot Pants had a fire to attend.
• We are still waiting on Dave Prosser and Steve Wrona — each has promised to attend, but needs a little time to get up his respective courage.

Thanks to Money for the take out.
