QIC: Tuco

Alright, on Sunday evening as YHC considered what to do for a Q at Flatline that would allow everyone to get after it without YHC holding them back.  The idea for stations, basically using the WIB format, seemed like a good idea.  In my home, no other F3 contact, may have tried to explain idea to M but per usual her eyes glazed over as my explanation started and would be surprised if she got even the first 10 words.  So, stations, all at own pace, great.

Well, well, well, arrive at Estate and Cobra starts Pax off with a bit of warmup and then leads us to the first station, exercise, second station, exercise, third station, exercise, repeato.

How the H did Cobra know what YHC was thinking Sunday night?  (watching for helicopters and delivery vans parked suspiciously as I type this)

…Alright, have to get into what happened today, just saw a helicopter fly by.

Warm-O-Rama

  • This is Flatline, Warm-O-Rama is not part of the plan.

Thang

Stations 1-6, 3 exercise per station, start with 5 reps of each and go to next station.  Second round increase to 10 reps of each.  Third increase to 15 and so on.  All got to the 25 rep round (5th lap), finished between stations 3 and 5 with 1.5-2 miles covered.

Station 1 – Arm circles forward, Squat, LBC

Station 2 – Arm circle reverse, Lunge, Freddie Mercury

Station 3 – Overhead Clap, Side Squat, Low Flutter

Station 4 – Seal Clap, Squat, Plank Jack

Station 5 – Merkin, Lunge, Heels to Heaven

Station 6 – Carolina Dry Docks, Side Squat, WW II situp

And scene.

Announcements:

  • Mutton Q at Conspiracy 3/28
  • Bluto Q at Bells & Whistles on 3/28
  • Thistle Q at WIB on 3/29
  • Hop Swap 1/2 marathon and 5k this weekend – Van Gogh and Balco’s M, Prospector running, likely others

COT:

  • Thistle took us out asking for strength and caring from each other to each other.

NMM:

  • Not a huge amount of chatter this morning.  Group got after it pretty quietly.
  • Van Gogh and Thistle sprinted out of the gate and kept a solid pace going.
  • Moment of satisfaction, near the end, Balco had to pause for just a second, almost imperceptible, to take an extra breath.  Only sign of struggle YHC saw from him all day.
  • Bluto did some extra merkins to complete his Benjamin.  VG joined him.  Others chose to just observe.
  • Some shots fired at Sister Jean and her surprising endorsement career.

Gentlemen, thank you for the opportunity.  Hedwig, ask Cobra for the keys, think he borrowed those also.
