Basically iiiPillars at Middletooth

AO: middle-tooth
Q: Focker
PAX: Black Lung, Betty Ford, Pep, Two Face, Harbaugh, Cowboy, moneyshot, Zelenskyy, High School Musical (DR), Formica
FNGs: None
COUNT: 11
CONDITIONS: Sunshine

WARMUP: Various stretches while waiting on Black Lung

THE THANG: This workout was designed around praying at Yuri’s house. He is a dear friend of moneyshot who is undergoing surgery today for pancreatic cancer.
-Run one mile to his home. Every turn we did 10 burpees, 15 dry docks, 10 lunges.
-Had the chance to pray over this family and their home with time for reflection
-Run one mile back with turn workouts being 10 jump squats, 15 diamond push ups, 20 monkey humpers
-upon arrival back to startex, we did 10 ww1 and 10 prisoner squats, then 20, then 40, then 23.6. These sets were broken up by sprints. Total of 93.6 for average number of days in the summer

MOLESKINE: somehow we ran uphill both ways, full light during the whole workout.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: brewsday coming up! 2.0 workout this Saturday! Reach out to Grape.

COT: Opened up about how my first reaction to Yuri’s house being a mile away was thoughts of inconvenience/not ideal for this workout. The Lord used this to convict me of my selfishness and allowed me to reflect on the importance of physical places in our life. There is a reason we visit our old homes, have memorials where things have happened, and worship at buildings. Being somewhere holds power cause we are physical beings. moneyshot thanks for the chance to come into Yuri’s life and y’all’s friendship this morning

Final Exams

AO: bomber
Q: Firefox
PAX: Papa Bear, CubCadet, Vector, Pep, Sherlock, Puzzlah, Black Lung, Pop-A-Lock, Hedwig, DintyMoore, JingleVader
FNGs: None
COUNT: 12
CONDITIONS: Moist

WARMUP:
– 20 SSH
– WMH
– GM

THE THANG:
Courtesy of my eldest 2.0 who is finishing up 8th grade, we took a 10 question multiple choice final exam. After listening to a question, PAX bear crawled to the cone representing their answer. Correct answers got stars (20 Star Jumps), incorrect answers got 10 burpees.

Questions included:
– What is the line of latitude separating North and South Korea? (36 | 38 | 40 | 41)
– Which of these is NOT an invention from the Gilded Age? (airplane | dishwasher | barbed wire | repeating rifle)
– How many valence electrons are in a Halogen? (3 | 5 | 7 | 0)
– In what Act does Tybalt die in Romeo & Juliet? (2 | 3 | 4 | doesn’t die)
– Which character doesn’t die in Romeo & Juliet? (Tybalt | Paris | Benvolio | Mercutio)
– Which is NOT one of the 7 main elements of art? (unity | shape | form | value)
– How many naturally occurring noble gases are there? (5 | 6 | 7 | 8)
– Which of these is not a part of the brain? (Pons | meninges | arachnoid | phalanges)
– Which of these is equal to 1? (i^2 | i^3 | i^4 | i^i)
– How many sharps are in the key of A major? (0 | 1 | 2 | 3)

Afterwards, we moseyed to the playground. PAX were given the opportunity to “pull up” their grades. In groups of 3, one person ran around the community center, one did pull-ups, the other did a “plank-to-push-up” (from low plank, extend your arms to high plank without moving your hands). After 2 full rotations, pull-ups were swapped out for hanging leg raises and the ground exercise was swapped out for dips.

To ensure we were all well-rounded students, everyone did 10 copenhagen plank dips per side on the low wall by the playground.

Back at startex, we held a hollow body hold until the final bell, announced by Alice Cooper’s “School’s Out”.

MOLESKINE: No retribution may be visited upon my daughter for her part in creating this workout.

COT: Everyone shared a moment of gratitude. I will add an additional moment of gratitude by thanking all the PAX in attendance for sharing. It was a great way to end the proceedings.

Anyone remember how many they got right/wrong? I think CubCadet might have done the best with around a 70% or 80%, but I can’t confirm that. On the brain question, I noticed that everyone followed Black Lung and Vector, except Hedwig who immediately recognized his error.
