26 were present to see Header plant the shovel flag on a nice, cool morning at Charlotte Christian.  Actually 1 of those guys just came to watch me do burpees at the end of the workout, but he and the other 25 guys were going to get their money’s worth this morning as we started our workout.

We began with a nice mosey back to the football field with a tour of the bleacher steps along the way.

COP

• Low slow squat x20
• IW x20
• Q gets in the circle for a wave of merkins up to 4 (planned to go higher but thought better of it as we had plenty of other fun things to do)

Mosey over to Grandma as we have neglected her for a couple weeks.

Elevens on Grandma Mtn

• LBCs at the top
• Squats at the bottom

Plankorama as pax finishes up.

Partner up for some work on the track

• Partners run in opposite direction on track
• When they meet on opposite side, do 20 handslap merkins
• Get up and continue running in same direction
• When you meet your partner again do 20 handslap merkins
• Go until you’ve done 160 (or so) handslap merkins – will have run 4 laps

Do a little Mary as we wait for the six (LBCs, Dolly).  Recovery and mosey to the playground

• Find your partner from earlier
• Peoples Chair / Tricep Dips
• While partner 1 does peoples chair, partner 2 does 30 tricep dips on their knees , then flapjack
• AMRAP pull-ups (partner assisted as necessary)

Head back for COT – AYG for the last 100-150 yds

Done

NMS:

• A bit of a Q-fail on the track work.  YHC has trouble with adding, multiplying, etc.  Was supposed to be 20 handslap merkins x 8 stops for a total of 160 merkins for everybody.  And you run a mile in the process (4 laps).  Seems simple enough right?  Hopefully everyone got in plenty of merkins regardless…that was a pretty tough mile.
• Apparently the partner dips thing is taboo in A51.  Something just a little “dodgy” about the peoples chair/dips combination that Bulldog just didn’t care for, so he and a few others decided to do their own thing.  Apparently this is more of a Metro thing.
• Welcome to our 3 FNGs…Swingline, Bacon bits (Swingline 2.0), Shotgun (Backdraft 2.0).  Nice work this morning!  Glad you joined us and hope to see you again.
• YHC must be the only Pittsburgh Pirate fan in the pax this morning.  Hops and I wagered 50 burpees over the outcome of the wildcard game between the Pirates and Cubs.  I lost.  Hops made the trip to Jevlar this morning to collect, but generously helped me pay up as he split the burpees with me (30 for me, 20 for him).  Guess he wanted to get home before 8am.  Go Cubbies!
• Solid prayer from Bulldog to close us out.
• As always a pleasure to lead you guys this morning.  Thanks Header for the opportunity!
