Bear Sighting and Shooting Stars

/in /QIC:
PAX: , , , , , , ,

February 13, 2019 / Thunder / QIC: Aquaman

PAX: Aquaman, Crosby, Gumby, Gump, John Deer, Kubota, Tofu, Quiver

PAX of 3 for EC and 8 for main event came out to crawl around in the dark of the night with shooting stars above!

EC: Crosby, Gumby, John Deer

Warm Up: Mosey to parking lot to circle up for a very short warm-up as everyone could “Bearly” hold back their excitement to get started!

SSH IC x 25, Cotten pickers IC x10

The Workout:There are 32 parking spaces in the middle of the parking lot. There are also 3 handicap spaces on the far corner of the parking lot. Each space had a card with the exercise you were to complete written on it. You were to bear crawl to each space and do the exercise. 2 of those spaces gave direction to bear crawl to a handicap space of your choosing. The 3 handicap space exercises included Dbl merkin burpee x 10 or LBC’s IC x20 then WW2’s x10 or 2 laps around lot then Turkish Get-ups x5. You would then bear crawl back to your next space and continue. I do not feel like typing all 32 exercises but we had lots of fun and Bearly made it around to all of them. Also at any given time, anyone was allowed to call out a exercise of their choosing and we would all stop and complete it b4 moving on. With 8 minutes remaining, we bear crawled to meet Mary.

Mary: Complete the exercise in the handicap space that you had not done.

Announcements:FB, Slack, and a reminder to that just because not everyone has prayer requests, that does not mean that they might not be struggling with something. Keep our eyes open and be available to one another
Prayer:Quiver is moving to HS and the stresses involved, Bullseye’s recovery, those that are struggling and not saying anything to anyone to have strength to speak up and for the rest to have eyes to see.

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.

The amount of Pax that posted at EC was incredible too. I’ll try to get them all: UTI, Pablo, Lipstick, Crosby, Gumby, Dawgpound, Deadbolt, Double Doink, Slide Rule, Cowboy, Nemo, Peeping Tom, Mookie, , Wiggly, Skidmark (again sorry if I forgot anyone)

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.

Jack Bells

/in /QIC:
PAX: , , , ,

Pax of 5 gathered for a promised co-Q beatdown by Pikachu and Skidmark. 3 pax came from Crazy Time and after some mumble chatter we were off at 0530 as scheduled.

Warm Up:

SSH x15 IC

Daisy Pickers x10 IC

Windmill x10 IC

The Workout:

Pax gathered at end of parking lot with their kettle bell. On the grass x2 Turkish Getups on each arm and then we started our latter:

Walk to 1st parking lot line – x10 Kettle Bell swings

Back to grass for x2 Turkish Getups per arm. Repeato swings at 1st line, then go to 2nd line for 5x Man-O-Makers per side.

Getups are performed each time a new line is added, and all preceding lines are always done. Exercises for subsequent lines were:

3rd Line – 10x Deadlifts

4th Line – x10 LBCs w/Kettle Bell held over chest

5th Line – x10 Sit ups w/Kettle Bell held over chest and rotated to be overhead at top of situp (dubbed the Vietnam)

Getups were repeated one more time for good measure, and then YHC handed things over to Skidmark.

Skidmark led us in Jack Webbs – 1:3 Merkin to Overhead Press w/Kettle Bell ratio from 1:3 -> 10:30, with “recovery” runs in between down to parking lot median.
Mary:

After we (thankfully) finished Jack Webbs we circled up. After the Pax (other than Pikachu) failed to guess Skidmark’s favorite “Mary” exercise we were punished with performing it – the Merkin Clock. With stops at 12, 9, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 we were sufficiently gassed.
