Warm Up: FRAM and Sunshine for EC. SSH, Good morning, Daisy pickers, Hillbillies, Sir Fazio, Seal claps
The Workout: Had I consulted my calendar, which had me running 22 miles just two days ago, I wouldn’t have signed up to Q today. But I didn’t, so I did.
Then in a very adult manner of dealing with life, I tried to ignore it, hoping it would go away, so I could get another day of rest. But it didn’t, so I couldn’t.
So, up & at ’em. Having only a vague template in my head of what to do, I, as Sprinkler so succinctly foretold “bullshitted my way through this workout”, and it formed into this:
7’s on the “hill” of burpees and squats. That was it for legs. After that we just ran around in a disorderly pattern, making periodic stops for sets of non-leg exercises. Dips on the picnic tables, WWIIs, merkins, balls to the wall, Carolina Dry Docks.
We got in at least three sets of each (I think), with variations of merkins (derkins on the bleachers, diamond & wide grip) and dips (alternating raised leg), but did get 4 sets of WWIIs just because I decided to hit 100 reps for some reason.
Mary: A P90X favorite, Downward Dog Crunches (DD position, raise right leg, swing it to touch right elbow for 4 count, return. Raise right leg, swing it to forehead for 4 count, return, then swing right leg to left elbow for 4 count – repeat other leg). Then we did some kind of toe touch things until time expired. Good stuff.
Prayers: Fire Chief Tony, battling stomach cancer; FRAM’s coworker Mike, in a car accident.

Trick-or-Treat Mutiny
/in Mutiny /QIC: AbacusPAX: Banana Seat, Breach, Chubbs, Warbucks
NOTE: Excuse me….posting late for 10/31/2022 Mutiny. Crazy work week.
FNGs: None
EC: Breach (in his Orange skeleton costume) and YHC (in my Fuquay Mafia get-up) ran 1.5 miles after first plotting some mischief.
Warm Up: Slide Straddles, Good Mornings, Imperials, Hillbillies, Sir Fazio Arm Circles, Seal Claps, 5 burpees for a Warbucks late arrival
The Workout: For the Trick portion, YHC asked each PAX to walk bravely into the woods to find a piece of candy. Warbucks, being late to the AO and looking especially tired, was chosen as the 1st PAX to brave the woods. Unbeknownst to Warbucks, there was an orange skeleton
(that looked a lot like Breach) waiting in those woods just to put the fear of God into him! Warbucks’ response was a instant Mutiny Classic and gave us all a good laugh before the remaining PAX had to brave the woods as well (with less risk of skeleton attacks). While each PAX went into the woods, the rest of us did some Merkins and squats. Once out of the woods, we’d run over to some tables for step-ups and dips before heading back over to the woods.
Treat time was a fun game of catch and throw with the football. PAX were asked to run long for a big throw. Candy for catches, burpees for drops, curls for the girls and big boy sit-ups no matter what… we did a lot of burpees!
Mary:with little time left, we did low slow flutters until our time was up and body exhausted.
