Sorry for the lateness of this post here on the website from Saturday’s Alcatraz Q…was trying to figure out how to post on the website…but here it is!!! ~Head Hunter
5 brave HIMs showed up to face the frozen tundra, questionable traction, and a “make it up as ya go” Q with zero regard for warmth and possibly safety. Snow was falling, spirits were high, and nobody checked the weather app twice.
Warmarama:SSH x25Imperial Troopers x20-ish (Q math)Merkins x15Whirly with a clap (forgot how many because YHC was distracted by trying to figure out what to do next)SSH x25Blood flowing, extremities still attached.
Mosey to the blocks (still upright…for now).
Mosey to the pavilion for a little frozen fun:11 Thrusters11 Squatty Potties4 roundsLegs questioning life choices and why only @Drano had coffee for this thing
Mosey to the parking lot where winter reminded us who’s in charge:Snow plow block bear crawls (or something?) down and back x4We tried to plow the parking lot so church had a chance for tomorrow, but the snow prevailed. Hands numb, hearts full!
Mosey to cover:Block Merkins x11 throughForm optional, effort mandatory.Still under cover:Lunges down and back ~3x (block optional)Slipping, sliding, and somehow still working.Community Service Opportunity:Attempted to clear sliding ice off the roof.Results: inconclusive. Effort: solid.
MARY:LBC x25Penguin Crunches x25 (because we felt like we were in the Antarctic)Snow Angels x15 (seasonally appropriate)Finisher:One last snow plow bear crawl for the GoPro
Because if there’s no video, did it really happen?
COT:Snow, sweat, and five men better than when they showed up.2 slips, No injuries reported. All toes accounted for.T-Claps all around. 
…oh and 2 or 3 for a very sketchy Supermax Murph @dr. toot @Subfloor and @Head Hunter
