Lazy Q

Lazy Q

21 PAX enthusiastically gathered in a South Charlotte Harris Teeter parking lot for the latest edition of Hawk’s Nest aka Falcon Crest.  Enthusiasm not because YHC was on Q, oh no, but rather because of NO RAIN that morning.  We cannot complain too much with all of the wintery hardship being thrust upon a wide swath of the country, but can we get a little sunshine, please??  Anyway, YHC uttered a toothless disclaimer, loitered a bit as Deep Dish roared into the parking on 2 wheels, and then cast off into the gloom to commence the commencement.

COP behind the building near the Walgreens – nobody really knows what businesses are in this building, but the parking lot is useful.

LSS, MCs, Slerkins, IW, Straight Leg Raises, Runner’s Lunge Stretch – in perfect cadence

Claim a parking space stripe as your own.  Lateral jump over the line 20x.  Plank walk merkins 5x ea. side of stripe.  Rinse and Repeat 3x.  “Is this a cardio workout??”  Nope, just channeling my inner Body Shaping workout circa 1988 ESPN.

Mosey across Colony to Stonecroft Park Dr.  Left on Summerhill Ridge Dr.  Left on Greenway Bend Dr.  This would be home base.

Mosey to each cul-de-sac (3 total), returning to home base for 5 merkins each time.

Cul-de-sac 1 — Dolly, Flutter — 10 ea.

Cul-de-sac 2 — Peter Parker, Parker Peter — 10 ea.

Cul-de-sac 3 — Jump Squats, SMCs — 10 ea.

Mosey up and over Summerhill Ridge Dr. to Lee Rea Rd.  Who was the Rea family?  Must have owned a gazillion acres back in the day.  Partner up.  YHC had the honor of being Chopper’s partner, who is crushing it at 61 (double Respect).

Partner 1 — called exercise at top of hill — Heels to Heaven, LBC, WWII sit-ups

Partner 2 — run to bottom of hill around the bend — 10 WA merkins

Flapjack

Mosey back across Colony and make our way to the fountain.

Derkins x10, Dips x10, Hot lap — Rinse and Repeat 3x

Mosey to launch

Done

Much to Spackler’s displeasure, we did not have time for stomache’ exercises at the end, but looking at the summary above, we gave the core a thorough beating.  Strong effort by the PAX notwithstanding the soggy streets and Tuesday morning hangovers.  Respect for the aforementioned Chopper, Snowflake, Snuka, and Hopper.  These guys post regularly, get after it, and inspire us all.  Well done, brothers.  Lots of mumble chatter but YHC was focused on the workout and leading this motley crew thru the mean streets of South Charlotte.  YHC engaged in a post workout chat with Pop and Dish about the best Van Hagar songs, of which YHC prefers “The Best of Both Worlds” followed closely by “Pound Cake.”  Hagar was solid, but there is something about the Diamond Dave days which sticks in the psyche.  Nevertheless, the fact Oasis is not in the Rock and Roll HOF is a damn shame; don’t even try and convince YHC otherwise.

Thanks to Deep Dish and Hopper for the opportunity to Q this bunch.  It was an honor (sort of).
