Serenity Amidst Chaos

QIC: Frostbite

Date: 4/17/2023

PAX: @Dr. Toot (WD), @$5 Footlong, @Red Pajamas, @Frostbite (YHC, QiC, WB)

3 others joined me in my #VQ at #Mayhem this morning.  It was a glorious weather day that caused some serenity amidst all the construction happening at the #AO. So serene, @Red Pajamas showed up a few minutes late from his slumber but the #accountability and #EH from @$5 won out.

I have only been to this #AO a few other times for convergences and meant to visit it last week to get a better lay of the land so I could plan a proper beatdown, but the bed won out after #HighLife.  I had to rely on some trusty backblasts (just one of the reasons why it is important to write one!) to concoct my plan.  This one was a rough variation on one @Adobe did called the #BruceLee (with much better graphics). Here is how our morning went:

Warmarama:

SSH (20 x IC)

Copperhead Squats (10 x IC)

Abe Vigoda (8 x IC)

Whirley’s Got the Clap (10 x IC)

Arm Swirlys (10x IC, FlapJack)

Seal Clap (10 x IC)

OH Clap (10 x IC)

Moroccan Night Clubs (10 x IC)

The Thang:

Base Station at bottom of #Hill2NoWhere.  Do set of exercises. 20 reps all OYO.

  1. WW Hammers (WW2s with American Hammer at end)
  2. HR Merkins
  3. Alt. Lunges (10 each Leg)
  4. WW Hammers (WW2s with American Hammer at end)
  5. Irkins
  6. Monkey Humpers

Once all 6 exercises are complete, run up #Hill2NoWhere. 2 Burpees at top. Run Down.

Rinse and Repeat x 4!

and TIME!

Mary:

We opted to continue on and finish Rnd 4 instead.

NMM:

WW Hammers feel/smell/taste/looks awfully like a WW2 so @Dr. Toot made the executive decision to count them towards monthly challenge.  Approved. 160 by my count!

Hit @$5 up for any travel recommendations. Particularly if you are looking for a summer trip up to Maine and Acadia National Park as YHC and my M are planning in July. Great recs.

@Red Pajamas is steadfast as can be. Strong work this morning and was killing the circuits.  He can also be found swimming at the local Clemmons Y.  Maybe he sees @Huckleberry there.

@Dr. Toot was out front all morning but did a great job pushing the 6 to be right there with him.  Ask him about the Kale and Bean soup he has had recently.  You may have been able to smell it, too!

Overall, a perfect morning. Weather was cooperative. Not too hot, not too cold. Just right. We have all been waiting for mornings like this one.

#Mayhem is a great #AO — so many different options. That hill is no joke. Wish it wasn’t so far for YHC but mornings like today made it worth it.

Announcements:

@$5 urging #PAX whom are looking to add to their families via a puppy (not babies @Bevo, @TO, don’t worry) they found at Washington Park.  Currently, the pup is living with the Humane Society. Reach out to him with any questions.

Happy Hour (and 1/2) happening tomorrow at 5:30pm at Mossy’s in Clemmons. Hope to see you guys there!

#HighLife is becoming a thing on Tuesday Evenings. 7:30pm. Miller Park (Queen St. Lot). 33 guys in 2 weeks with 5 FNGs.  Strong work and keep the EH on those guys. And get the FNGs back out. Come out and support! @Chomper on the Q next week! Bring your running shoes.

Prayers:

Finding a good home for the pup

@$5 neighbor who are expecting very soon.

 

YHC took us out.

Thanks for the keys, @Workbench! You were missed.  Keys were taken by one of the bus drivers. Who knows where they are now.

All the love,

Frostbite
