Dump or Super Bowl – Both Stunk

22 Pax gathered in the smelliest part of Holly Springs for a Monday morning beatdown. Q was a little upset with the result so made sure to take it out on the Pax. Very few Pats fans showed up but I doubt they could handle it anyway.

Warm Up: Mosey for one loop with stops to do Good Mornings, SSH, and Windmills. Once back at the court Pax paired up by ability and speed. It was only logical that Dawgpound requested to be Lucky’s partner. Somebody needed to make sure we gave Lucky a push. Kudos DP.

The Workout: Catch me if you can partner runs. 1st loop 2 Double Merkin Burpees. 2nd loop around 3 squat jumps. 3rd time around 5 merkins. Once at the end circle back for the 6 doing 5 LBCs.

Mosey to the ramp for some 7’s. Reverse merkins at the bottom and star jumps halfway up the ramp.

Wow. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, South Wake loves virgins…Q’s that is. 30 Pax posted for a virgin Q this morning by Aquaman.

New light vests should come with instruction on how to put it on. Said pax had the lights somewhere down around his groin area and through his legs. I think there was some concern with it not staying on his shoulders.
