FNGs: None today

I was excited to be back from vacation and getting to Q Mutiny on a somewhat less humid morning.  When I pulled into the parking lot I was surprised to see a good number of vehicles already parked, I was assuming that LED’s post of an earlier start time and more miles for EC got some Pax out of bed, but I soon realized that some of the vehicles belonged to some early birds working the track. Sadly they were not F3 and I was thinking that maybe we’d be our regular group of 6-8 but as 5:30 approached more cars started to pull in for a total of 14 Pax and, since I didn’t put up a pre blast, at 5:29 Banana Seat yells out “ Who’s Q-ing this thing?” I step forward and circle everyone up for warm up.

Warm Up: SSH, Cherry Pickers, Fozie Arms Circles, Stretches, Lap around the track

The Workout: Told the Pax to partner up, P1 had to go to rock pile to pick a rock while P2 did squat hold. Decided to do a Diego, which is like a Dora but just a harder.  The exercises consisted of 100 merkins, 150 overhead press with rock, 200 LBC, 250 curls for the girls with the rock and 300 squats with the rock. After picking up the 6 and returning the rocks we moseyed over to the tennis courts for some suicides which consisted of bear crawl to end of first court to do 5 burpees and then crawl bear back, then sprint to the end of second court do 5 burpees and run backwards back.

Mary: American Hammers, Homer to Marge, LBC, Pickle Pounders, etc……

Ultimate Frisbee, Shirts v Skins!

For every drop, we did an exercise. Exercise switched after 2 goals. Burpees, hand release merkins, turkish getups, LBCs, squats, few other things.

Every goal, PAX called an exercise the group did. Scorers only had to do half, if they wanted.

Highlights: Some great catches by lots of PAX (even the ones that were out of bounds!), lots of blocks and sprints

High Lights: The glare from the lights, the glare from the Skins

Low Lights: the not-so-glow-in-the-dark frisbee, LED being so tanned we kept thinking he was a Shirt
