5 PAX Social Distancing at Red October
EC: Norm, LED, Martini.
Came in early for me (5:21) and saw three lighted vests trying to cross the road. I was covering Q from 16-bit at RO. Wasn’t sure what the numbers were going to be. None of the PAX in my neighborhood are active in F3 anymore. I recognized a white Maxima in downtown Fuquay and smiled as I realized Gump was coming out. I had an extra kettlebell and hoped he would join me. PAX quickly starting filing in. And Norm called 5:30 and we were off.
FNGs: None
COVID-19. PAX keeping their distance, refraining from fists bumps and high fives. New reality. Mixed emotions.
Warm Up: Norm (Mutiny Q) led a warm-up run around the gym. Circled up for good am, hillbillies, imperial walkers, windmills, Fazio arm circles and SSH.
The Workout: PAX met up with Dauber under the picnic table shelter. I initially thought it was only going to be Gump and me. Excited to see HOA, Buttermilk and Banana Seat join us. Wanted to keep a high temp. Called out three to four exercises each round and then had PAX rinse and repeat before moving on to next round. Here’s how things played out:

Join Mutiny PAX for Mary.
Mary: Had PAX circle up and kept repeating plank holds with normal stance and wide stance. Many cadence counts.
Announcements: Update on Wrightsville racing options, routes. Thank you Banana Seat for your efforts. Not sure if I voiced this, movie night still on. Call of the Wild, 6:45 pm at Holly Springs. Bring your Clorox wipes for the seats. Looks like Roger, Roger and me are the only PAX going.
T-Claps (Recognition): PAX for keeping their distance and being respectful toward others as each family deals with COVID-19.
Prayer: All of our families during this pandemic. Leaders. First-responders. UNSPOKEN. Injured PAX. PAX with illness/struggles. Dauber took us out.
Honor to lead during this very challenging time. -Dauber
