24 PAX with two fresh FNG’s, “Napoleon Dynamite” and “Kapowski” emerged from the gloom for my VQ this morning, much fun was had as we all got our inner cardsharks on for a little “Casino Royale.” Sally and Mary, those dreadful ladies, also reared their heads.
The Thang
Mosey around to the church parking lot for a little warmup consisting of our favorite: Side Straddle Hops, Imperial Walkers, and Merkins, mixed in with some laps around the islands in the lot before moving on the to main course.
Mosey to the rear parking lot for Matthew’s Elm for a little card game, played with a set of playing cards.

PAX terminated this workout, moseying to the walls for some sits, with air press. 3 sets, with 10,15 and 20 reps before our beloved ladies showed up.
Circled back up for Sally, played to Moby’s “Bring Sally Up”. Switched between Merkins and LowSlowSquats per verse, drawing a bit of sweat from the PAX. Fun was had.Native American Run back around the school to finish out to Hail Mary, who sent us on our way.
Moleskin:
Peak51 got two new FNG’s this morning, Napolean Dynamite and Kapowski, awesome job to you, and welcome to our family. I’ll be off into the “Wild Blue Yonder” again, so I’d like to take out this opportunity to thank all the PAX I’ve met at Peak51 over the past year now, and all the support, love, and prayers you’ve given me in that time. Love this group. Thanks to Booyah for giving me the opportunity to take VQ this morning. Shoutout to Pop who put in the work at the Air Force’s Chaplaincy school while I was away over the year, and served as a mentor and motivator for me at USAFA.
