INTRO:

So…around 9:30pm last eve, Touchdown decided that she wasn’t going to fia me…and thus a plan was hatched. A flurry of texts ensued between team awesome sauce, and then we nestled all snug in our beds.

Upon arrival, something about that LD shovel flag just didn’t feel right, but it sure did look nice all taught in the morning breeze.

Anyhoo, as the cars were still rolling in (what kind of rinky dink operation is this FW??!) we set off on an ON TIME short mosey down to the bus lanes…with actual busses!!

 

 

 

 

 

WARM-O-RAMA:

Side Straddle Hops (SSH) in cadence x15

Hillbillies in cadence x10

Cotton Pickers in cadence x10

Sun Gods on your own (OYO)

Some yay-hoos were sassing during the warm ups which was nice…

THE THANG:

Part I – Tubbs

Line up at the busses, pick a bro, and perform BRO-FROGS to the end of the busses. Circle the big loop and hold in plank on the six.

The energy and mumble chatter was palpable so we upped the ante to line back up and perform the same routine, but this time with BRO-PEES. This is where Fleetwood nearly had a nervous breakdown and started whining about how people were going to get hurt. Blah blah blah, quit yer moaning and groaning. Sadly, there were no injuries other than a few with hurt feelings.

But wait, there’s more! The busses were expertly parked (props to CCSD driving school!) with just enough space to do some side shuffle weaves to the end. Lost of near miss skull fractures and all that mumble chatter echoed nicely off the sheet metal. It was music to my ears.

Rally back up to the top of the hill for…

Part II – Crockett

Circle up for the tried and true – HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training).

Four wicked sucky rounds of knee jump slaps / lunges / high knees / v-ups / burpees / reptile merkins. 30 seconds each with 5 seconds in between. By some miracle, HB’s phone actually worked this time…

Things learned during this portion of the show:

There are some VERY delicate hands over on this side of town. Lots of worry over hamburger hands. Pro-tip #1: gloves are for wimps. Pro-tip #2: use the painted lines

That flag sure does look wobbly

Pie Bar cusses like a sailor when pushed to the limit (he also had a cool tank top that didn’t stay on the entire time, and he brought a fng). Also he was my bro for the day so we’re now bff. Sorry, Garf.

I don’t know who but either Chops/Dizzy/Panda saved the flag from toppling over just in the nick of time

And then it happened – FLAG DOWN!! And according to Homeboy, if the flag goes down there is a 10 burpee penalty. Then he made up some stuff about the military and how he is a navy seal and that he’s best friends with Dredd. Anyway, I don’t think he made many friends with that little scheme.

Finish ON TIME

CIRCLE OF TRUST:

Prayers for Cricket and his mom

Prayers for all of the youth in our county – especially middle schoolers. They are dealing with pressures and heavy stuff like never before. Thank you Smurfette for dedicating your career to these kids.
