Birthday Burner – no thanks to Bruce

10 August 2020 – Birthday Burner, no thanks to Bruce

PAX: Pumpkin Spice, Hambone, BnB, Vector, Hi Viz, Siri, Blue Mule, Sal Pal, Bad Boy, Right Said, Michelin Man, Drago, Harvey Updyke, Natural Ice, DFrost, Cub Cadet, Crawlspace, Crablegs(QIC)

Conditions: Dark, muggy, and muggier still at the Hillwood Pool Microclimate

WoR: PAX Started with a gentle mosey counterclockwise around the park and up Elmington to the Hillwood Parking lot – the only non-grassy space at this AO that could accomodate 18! (not factorial…Hambone…) PAX.

We got loose with some Good mornings and other lower body activities.  YHC was disappointed by Bruce Cupcake/Brooks Koepka digging his own grave at the PGA and decided to take out that frustration on the lower body of the PAX. All were better for it, save for Bruce.

THANG

YHC rang in 32years this AM so we started and ended with a 16 burpee (or Bonnie Blair + Jump squat if you choose) buy in and out.

Next…

Every minute on the minute, starting at 4 reps and adding 4 reps each minute for a total of 8 mins and eventually 32 reps of the following + a waiting exercise until the next minute

  • Squats/Imperial Walkers
  • 90 degree leg raises/Alabama Prom Dates
  • Merkins (or lunges for the wounded)/Side Straddle Hops

Mosey back for the 16 burpee buy out.

COT: Praise for the encouragement of the PAX and for Tallu Quinn dealing with Brain Cancer. Link is here to learn more about her story and support her family if you so choose.

NMM: It’s a privilige to lead the PAX, as always. YHC very grateful to make it to 32 and am looking forward to a year that sees the onset of parenthood and maybe even inroads to a real job.  I’m incredibly grateful for the encouragement of the PAX, particularly in 2018 when I was deep in the wilderness of life decisions. You guys were the support that I needed then and I hope that I can be the same for someone now or in the future.

Stay crabby,

Crablegs
