WHERE: The Clinic

THE PAX: Mandals, Good Hands, Gut Check, Skynet, Spaceballs, Drumstick, Uncorked, Homer (Respect), Stopwatch (Respect and welcome back!), Nomad, Sargent Slaughter, Trill, and Quackers (Kind of…)

Total # of PAX: 14

Number of FNGs: 0

QIC: BandCamp

INTRO:
YHC arrived early to find that the gloom wasn’t so gloomy. The Clinic was completely decked out in beautiful Christmas lights. Just enough to keep our spirits up for a TOUGH beatdown.

WARM-O-RAMA:

Fast Layer Cake Mosey – The Layer Cake is a full tour of every tier at The Clinic. Run the middle tiers to add the “frosting on top”. This morning we just did a classic Layer Cake. But we ran fast…leaving Nomad to ask me “Are you mad at us?” No, Nomad. Nothing but love. 

11 Weedpickers, Sun Gods OYO, 30 SSH in Cadence

11 Burpees

THE THANG:

Revenge of Bear Crab Mountain – Last time (as Uncorked would put it) we made it to base camp. This week we reach the summit. 

Bear Crawl up the stairs, 15 Burpees, Crab Crawl down the stairs, 15 Burpees. (Repeat 3x) for a total of 90 Burpees. That plus our 11 warm up burpees gives us our 101. 

The Valley – After climbing back down the mountain we made our way to the valley to make sure our legs were truly jelly. 

Sprint from one sidewalk to the other, and back. 30 LBCs in cadence. (Repeat 3x) Add 11 LBCs after the final sprint for a total of 101 LBCs in cadence. 

The Final Leg – We can’t truly complete our journey without making our way home. 

Layer Cake Mosey Round 2. End on the stage. Since Spaceballs was so fond of the 101 reps we finished with 71 SSH in cadence for a grand total of 101 SSH. 

CIRCLE OF TRUST:

Prayers for a young man injured in a recent lacrosse game. 

Christmas party on December 22nd. Hit up the 2nd f channel for the deets. 

Naked-Man Moleskin:

Seeing all the Pax splayed out at the base of Bear Crab Mountain was awesome. We were worn out and desperate for a nap. Then we heard a honk from the street. Pax gave a weak “hello” to whoever was greeting us from the comfort of their car. Then, wouldn’t you know it, Quackers comes running up at 5:58, with Bear Crab Mountain safely looming in the distant past. Even though he was late, he still posted, and there’s something to be said about beating the fartsack even if you feel that it’s already beat you. Quackers, you owe us 101 Burpees. 

Men, today was difficult! I’m proud of everyone for pulling each other through. Let’s hope Bear Crab mountain lies dormant for the next couple of years. Know that whatever challenge you face, you’re surrounded by a community of men willing to help pull you through. Same goes for Jesus. Life is hard, but he is present. Don’t climb the mountain alone.
