So a deep look at the map was given and YHC remembered the sidewalk out the back of the school property as well as Fairview Moravian nearby&#8230; lo and behold, there was some potential for fun.

Dude is a beast, the name Baer Grylles that was lofted about was too fitting. So we opted for Julia (Childs).<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Welcome to former FNG Lucas, a paramedic and relatively young. Hedwig declares he had a lot of wire rolls forYHC during the beatdown today\u2026 so we chose Tik Tok, which ironically YHC was just talking about not knowing anything about the other day\u2026 (which the PAX didn\u2019t believe because YHC works in IT).\u00a0 nothing.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">YHC took us out lifting up our city and asking for TheShmed to be a success!<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>NMM\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">PAX got in 80-100 burpee\u2019s, 100 SSH, 80 WWIIs, 100 Merkins, and 100 squats amongst 2.5 miles of travel, at least .5 miles of which was bear crawling or lunge walking!<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Many of the PAX didn\u2019t seem to know that YHC was Qing&#8230; There is a calendar, check it often, and don\u2019t be afraid to post at multiple AOs, even if the drive is a bit further. Maybe Saturday was a lesson for many to start doing that.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What a crowd. 28 PAX?! Luckily, YHC had already made plans to explore to new territory, at Fairview Moravian church (See picture of mapped route), which has a HUGE parking lot.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How many times have you been to TRQ or Purgatory? Has anyone ever thought to take that back sidewalk away from the school (Aside from maybe Closer who lives back there)? I think it blew a couple PAX minds that you could leave that way\u2026 perhaps a future escape route for torturous beatdowns?<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As expected, the burpees were a crowd pleaser, and part of a simple strategy to preview the #5000RepChallenge. The big crowd forced the plan to be made even more simple, with less work in transit for safety\u2019s sake, and basically Omaha-ing the entire back 75%.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">TPS asked for a simple Q, and immediately took it back when bear crawls and High Five exercises were repeated\u2026 YHC likes simple:-)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The PAX took up the entire length of a 25 space wide parking lot right off of Silas Creek. SO large was the crowd that YHC had to yell at the top of his lungs to stop the PAX from complaining about not knowing what to do. Okay, that would be an understandable complaint\u2026<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A great modification I saw was a double mosey back and forth instead of Bear Crawl. #Smart<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We were so spread out it\u2019s as hard to hear all the MC, but YHC was relieved to see the subgroups keeping each other in check.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Amazingly, Zima and I were able to visually communicate across the parking lot with what to do while waiting for the six. Perhaps we work out together too much?<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Amazing to see Toe Tag, Hedwig, Rust Bucket and Total Recall amongst the PAX again. Keep it up boys!!<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lots of #Respects out there, who are always an inspiration for YHC to strive and be like them when I grow up.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Good to see Parkay for the first time in a while, getting faster and stronger for sure!<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Red Baron, HOG, and Greenspan all seem ready for the 5000RepChallenge, they barely slowed down at all\u2026<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Argyle must not like coming to my Qs, but always decides to begrudgingly come anway. I assume this because he\u2019s been late twice in a row now, but arrives just in Time for burpee\u2019s so it\u2019s all good!<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">TClaps to the 6 PAX who stayed for the Murph after and earned $120 for Crisis Control Ministry! Hedwig (his idea), Toe Tag, Zima, Red Baron, DDay, Former FNG Julia, and some future FNGs who didn\u2019t count: Drew and Zach!<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A video for #TheShmed was made after the beatdown, it was awesome.
