We finished by reading the Preamble to the Declaration of Independence & saying the pledge of allegiance

FNGs: None
COUNT: 13
CONDITIONS: A little reprieve from the swampiness, somewhere around 75° :sunrise:

WARMUP:
Made a circle. PAX alternated doing 13 (or more…) squats and doing one of these exercises for a minute: arm circles, imperial walkers, pitcher’s stretch, lunges, reverse lunges, Bonnie Blairs, fire hydrants, donkey kicks (“the wrong way” says Cowboy, his way was better), mountain climbers, Lt. Dans, peoples chair, around the world lunges, and more squats. And we took turns planking during the exercises.

THE THANG:
>From home plate, one PAX pulls the Frisbee and bernies around the bases while the rest of the PAX play defense and try to tag him out. No running with the disc, no force outs, round as many bases as you can. Record was 5 bases (home run + single).

Closed with 5 minutes of Mary and stretching.

MOLESKIN:
:dagger_knife: Star Blade McCoy has only been posting for 2 weeks and is moving away in 6 weeks. A lesser man would’ve said “there’s no time to start something new.” Star Blade said “I’ll do the right thing right now” and found a group of other HIMs to make him better.

:man-lifting-weights: By my count, we did 2,532 squats altogether – including the 10 I gave DP for his sarcasm during the COT. Thanks Toothless for the coffee. Thanks Oatmeal for being AOQ and an encourager. Picture already posted above! :point_up_2:
