PAX: Lamb Chop, Root Canal, Decal (downrange from GA), $5 Footlong, Posthole, Burns, Chick Flick, Greenspan

Warmarama:

Upon popular demand, we warmed up with SSHs, Abe, Whirly, Down/Up Dog, and Dive Bombers.

The Thang:

At every stoplight, do 3 burpees.  If light is red, do 3 merkins with each burpee.  If light is yellow, 2 merkins with each burpee, and if light is green, 1 merkin.

For all called exercises, max out your reps to exhaustion (“bad form”).  Upon exhaustion, AMRAP SSHs x 2 + Squat x 1 until the six is up.

We traveled up Patterson, took a left on 6^th street and moseyed down to the railroad tracks for Get Ups along the wall.  Upon exhaustion, continue on 6^th to parking deck across from Finnegan’s; activate front/backward lunges.  Upon exhaustion, continue on 6^th until Poplar; left on Poplar and into the courtyard of 500 West Fifth for dips.  Mosey south on Spruce and perform derkins.  Upon exhaustion, mosey to the Cycle Bar on 4^th Street for Freddie Mercs.  Upon exhaustion, mosey to 1^st Pres wall on Cherry Street for (more) Get Ups.  #DeepBurn.  Mosey down Third to Park Vista; north on Park Vista to 4^th for Dive Bombers.  Upon exhaustion, mosey home to launch and finish the time off with diamond merkins.

End.

NMM:

• 1.9 miles and approximately 15 stops lights encountered, most of which were unsurprisingly red.
• The Hanes Building was lit up in the beautiful yellow & blue colors of Ukraine.
• Burns kept us in the lunge parking deck for a very long time.
• According to Huckleberry, who was sleeping like a baby during the workout, the burpee + 3 merkins should be known as the perfect burpee, the “perpee”. #DadJokes.
• Lamb Chop picked up on YHC’s “schtick” about 75% of the way through the workout; “schtick” being the very clear instructions given at 6^th street 35 minutes prior.
• YHC thought that Chick Flick was being quiet this morning, but it was just his general proximity to Lamb Chop that gave that impression. Dude barely broke a sweat.
• Decal was here several months ago and went to a weekend convergence. When the April 2^nd convergence was announced during COT he made a note to be traveling elsewhere that weekend.  Good to have him back in the Dash.
• Root Canal was the champ dipper; he’s a relentless animal.
• Great to see $5 out this morning. He made sure that the mission and core principles were recited and enforced.  #accountability
• Burns and Posthole led YHC on a flattish EC run around downtown. Great conversation throughout, and then Burns dared YHC to race an obvious F45 vehicle to the launch point.  Challenge accepted.
• Posthole provided some purchasing guidance for rebuilding YHC’s back deck in a time of escalating commodity costs.

Super-strong group of pax this morning.  Thanks for the keys, Posthole.  They’re still on the benches at 500 West 5^th with YHC’s shoulders.

Announcements:

• Convergence April 2^nd. More details to follow, but rumor is that there will be a Q school, a ruck, and a workout.  It’s also Palin’s birthday.
• The Shmed August 27^th. 5K and FunRun.

Prayer Requests: 

• $5’s epic mediation for his wreck four years ago is taking place on Monday.
• Ukraine.

YHC took us out reading a liturgy from Every Moment Holy on “Emergencies”.
