7th Manniversary of Toothless 🦷

Date: 2026-03-05 AO: greenmachine Q: Toothless PAX: Focker, Esposa, Pep, Sherlock, Grape, Black Lung, Cal Worthington, Betty Ford, Topanga FNGs: None COUNT: 10 CONDITIONS: Clear sunrise, breezy, not too warm, felt like 30A. Perfection.
WARMUP: – 49 x SSH – 7 x Good mornings – 7 x Scorpions
THE THANG:
7 Rounds of Tabata – 45s on, 15 off – High knees, squats, burpees, butt kickers, prisoner squats, peter parkers, iron mikes
Six-Seven’s – Perform 6 and 7 reps of two exercises respectively at every 10 yard line – Broad jump, hand release merkins for 6, WW2’s for 7
Repeat 7 Rounds of Tabata (mod burpees to low plank)
Stairway to 7 – Stair runs up & down all the way to the end – After each, do an increasing count of burpees, add 1 per round
MOLESKINE: YHC was gassed by this one – I pulled the plug a little early on the stairway to 7. We only got through 5 rounds when we probably could have made 7, but as they say if you can’t do it don’t Q it! Folks were big fans of year 8 Toothless who threatened penalties for exercise infractions or dropping during the low plank of tabata. Perhaps a precursor of what is to come :smiling_imp: Finished up by draining the thermos of some excellent anaerobic natural processed coffee. :coffee:
ANNOUNCEMENTS: – Holy smokers soon – Merkin Madness – Many other good things in the Slack post!
COT: – Praise and prayers around those battling leukemia – Prayers for those taking on a 50k this Saturday! For weather and injury free endurance! – YHC shared a learning of this last year, that it’s the little habits that can make you or break you. Don’t shy away from the hard but right choice in the small things because those compounding choices build momentum for the big things.
PLAYLIST: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5Q4PxR9KwkV62jZ86GZ9iI?si=b48993d308b5458b – The PAX loved this one – in reality it wasn’t close to all 7 minute songs but they were picking up what I was putting down with the 70’s rock ballads!
As always, it was an honor to lead men! Looking forward to the next 7 years with you!

MOLESKINE:
Actual lyrics from a song we heard as we listened to Tyler Childers’s new album.

Koala bears get livid when they don’t get eucalyptus
Most of ’em carry syphilis
Or chlamydia what’s the difference

I can see it fine from here it is a pretty cute koala
