Falling in Love With Bonnie Blair

QIC: Frostbite

Date: 08/03/2026

PAX: @Slowpitch (EC) @Zephyr (EC) @I-Beam @Hugo @Drama Queen @Ziffel -Zibi Wozniak @Drip and Frostbite (EC, QIC, WB)

YHC was tapped for the Q at #VI this AM and put out an early preblast recruiting some ECers. Luckily, my fellow Kentucky Bourbon Chase teammates, @Zephyr and @Slowpitch decided to jump in on the fun and get the morning started right.

Topics on the run included our upcoming trip to Bourbon Country – the pros and cons of van relay races, who the hell is our teammate @Workbench, and what to do with an incapacitated @Huck, I mean @Singing Cowboy, or both. We got a hearty 3 miles and were warmed up and ready for the future festivities.

4 others joined in and here is what we did:

Wamarama:

SSH / IST / Hillbillies / Abes / Whirlies/ CH Squats / Arm Swirlies / Seal Clap / OH Clap

Warm up mosey around parking lot to main entrance of YMCA and back to launch.

The Thang:

There would be a piece of cardboard at 3 of the tree planters. YHC instructed to do the exercises on the #weinke and run vertical to the opposite planter and keep the same exercises but double the reps. Move onto next planter and so on and so forth. Once all 3 planters were complete, rinse and repeat.

Planter 1:

Burpees x 2

HR Merkins x 4

Squats x 6

Bonnie Blairs x 8

Run to opposite side and double the reps

Planter 2:

Burpees x 2

Carolina Dry Docks x 4

Monkey Humpers x 6

Bonnie Blairs x 8

Run to opposite side and double the reps

Planter 3:

Burpees x 2

Shoulder Tap Merkins x 4

Alabama Prom Dates x 6

Bonnie Blairs x 8

Run to opposite side and double the reps

RINSE AND REPEAT

After 2 rounds, YHC was feeling gassed and OMAHA’d from the original plan (do this til time!)

Lap around the parking lot and head to the back shelter:

5 Layers of DIP: All 10 reps OYO

Dips x Irkins

Dips x Squatty Potty’s

Dips x Merkins

Dips x L Leg Step Up

Dips x R Leg Step Up

No one likes chives anyways…

Mosey back to launch for 10 minutes of Mary. Yes, 10 minutes. #Cobains

Mary:

LBCs

Low Flutter

High Dolley

Supermans

Mutton Crunch L/R

World War 2s

Penguin Crunch

H2H

Freddie Mercs

Dying Cockroach

American Hammers

And maybe one or 2 more…

TIME!

NMM:

144 Bonnie Blairs in total – YHC confesses to having to Google who the hell Bonnie Blair was.

@Drama Queen said an “oh no” as we approached Planter 2 and saw burpees being repeated

@I-Beam said it was not too bad other than the Bonnie Blairs

@Zephyr and @Hugo were out front all morning

@Slowpitch recently went to a concert…. an indie pop gal sensation aka Hillary Duff. The more he said it, the more he got quiet #GoodHusband

@Ziffel said a lot

@Drip smiled a lot

@Slowpitch and @Zephyr are HCs for Redline tomorrow.

Announcement:

Q School: 9am This Saturday @ Hanes Park – brunch to follow. Come support Project Cornerstone as they are doing what we are doing. Getting better each and every day.

@Drip has UA on Friday

@Slowpitch has #WF and is celebrating his F3 anniversary – dude is a #HIM and fits right in leading us. #MentorshipMonday starts next week at #VI

Prayers:

Peace in our country

@I-Beam took us out with a strong prayer to the #SkyQ!

Thanks for the keys, @Slowpitch – I left them at the hospital to be picked up next week!

All the love,

Frostbite
