Friends Old and New

/in /by

FNGs: none

Warm Up: SSH, Good mornings, Imperial Walkers, Hillbillies, Willy Mayes Hayes, Sir Fazio Arm Circles, Seal Claps, Overhead Claps, Moroccan Night Clubs

The Workout: PAX were instructed to go get a “mediumish” rock and meet up at the amphitheater. 4 rounds of:
15 Curls for the Girls
15 Tricep Extensions
15 Ground Pounders
15 Ruh Rohs
15 Tempo Squats
bearcrawl down to the library doors, mosey back
We swapped rocks in between each round. Once done, we returned our rocks gently and responsibly back to the rock pile.

Mary: Plank for a 10 count around the circle (170 count total), LBCs, WWIIs, Homer-to-Marge, American Hammers, finished things up with a little stretching.

Announcements: UFO every 1st / 3rd and 5th Monday of the month! Watch for 3rd F opportunities with the town that help support our ability to use the fields at Ting for UFO.

T-Claps (Recognition): 3rd Cousin, Bobby Dall and Slide Rule for joining us back in the gloom. Good to see you all again!

Prayer: Midget and his family for their loss.

Thoughts: Midget shared with us at COT that his mom always put others first. He encouraged us to do the same in our own lives, put others first and always give. If you maintain this mindset of others first and use it as your guiding principle, the decisions you make will fall into the right place automatically.
