FNGs: None
COUNT: 38
CONDITIONS: Perf

WARMUP:
50 SSH, 10 Merkins, 25 Flutters, 10 WMH, 10 GM’s

THE THANG:
First, YHC quickly realized there was not enough blocks for what was planned. I don’t feel like I pivoted very well tbh, that’s on me for not having a backup plan in place.

Here is what was rx’d:
– 15 Burpee Block jump overs, 50 Hand-release Merkins, 200m run
– 14 Burpee Block jump overs, 50 Goblet Squats, 200m run
– 13 Burpee Block jump overs, 50 We’re not worthy’s, 200m run
– 12 Burpee Block jump overs, 50 Hand-release Merkins, 200m run
– 11 Burpee Block jump overs, 50 Goblet Squats, 200m run
– 10 Burpee Block jump overs, 50 We’re not worthy’s, 200m run
– 9 Burpee Block jump overs, 50 Hand-release Merkins, 200m run
– 8 Burpee Block jump overs, 50 Goblet Squats, 200m run
– 7 Burpee Block jump overs, 50 We’re not worthy’s, 200m run
– 6 Burpee Block jump overs, 50 Hand-release Merkins, 200m run
– 5 Burpee Block jump overs, 50 Goblet Squats, 200m run
– 4 Burpee Block jump overs, 50 We’re not worthy’s, 200m run
– 3 Burpee Block jump overs, 50 Hand-release Merkins, 200m run
– 2 Burpee Block jump overs, 50 Goblet Squats, 200m run
– 1 Burpee Block jump overs, 50 We’re not worthy’s, 200m run

In reality here is what happened:
Partner up – 1 block per partner group
– 15 burpees together
– P1 does 50 HR-Merks while P2 runs, flipflop
– P1 does 50 WNW’s while P2 runs, flipflop
– 14 burpees together..etc

2-3 rounds in YHC called an audible, rallied the troops, apologized for poor planning, constructively criticized poor listening, stupid questions, and bitching from PAX, and then prescribed finishing out the burpees (apocalypse+) starting at 13. Funny enough the MC and smart-mouths stopped :man-shrugging:

MOLESKINE: Lessons learned on leadership, planning contingencies, listening, using the time someone gives you to ask questions, etc

“If you don’t like something, change it. If you can’t change it, change your attitude.” -Maya Angelou

You can’t always control your environment or the things that happen to you, but you can always try to change your outlook or the way you choose to see something or someone.
The Challenge: Be the positive change wherever you are and encourage others with your effort to shape the things that you can change.

Shout out to Oatmeal and sooner for delicious coffee and encouraging and supporting another great AM in the gloom.

Active warm-up

Mozy over to pizza hut

Santa appears out of the gloom… he looks a lot like oatmeal

Christmas Night
Santa/Oatmeal pulls a gift out of the bag and the PAX has to deliver; The pax are reindeer, led by rudolph who have to deliver gifts. Each round, Santa/Oatmeal picks off a pax from the reindeer who does an exercise while the rest of the pax delivers to playground locations specified on the card; santa’s crew of injured reindeer grows during each round of present delivery

Gift delivery travel: Native Reindeer Run around the water tower to “Whoville” aka the playground

Penalty for forgetting rudolph

Christmas Morning
Open each gift to find two unique exercises (25 each). One is naughty and one is nice. Flip a disc to determine exercise. Gating price to either be nice or get forgiveness for being naughty is Christmas/Oatmeal trivia.

Bag 1: ice skaters / Mountain jumpers; each side is half
Bag 2: elven merkins / eleven flutters aka hand release merkins with a star Superman or reverse flutters (low plank + flutter kicks); 4 ct
Bag 3: Frosty jumps / walks; low squat duck walk or broad jump; 1 is 1
Bag 4: Twinkling Star of Bethlaham or manger madness aka side straddle hops 4 CT or star jumps but with 180 rotation); 1 is 1
Bag 5: Ornamentation or Tree toppers aka plank ups or one-legged alternating box jump reaching for the tree top on the jump; each side is half
Bag 6: sleigh rides or Jingle bell rock aka Supermans or happy crunch frogs but with arms elevated verticaly instead of horizontally; 1 is 1
Bag 7: Christmas mornings aka 8 CT body builders; 1 is 1… We didn’t do this one

Santa had a loose interpretation of the rules. We did exercise for the record.

COT: healing, comfort and guidance

HANDS DOWN BEST COFFETETERIA OF THE YEAR, NO ONE IS CLOSE, ITS NOT A COMPETITION, POLE DANCER/TOOTHLESS COMBO WON. EASILY. THEY’RE OFFICIALLY ON THE NICE LIST.

Figure I’ll squeeze this in before the end of the month so we all get our PAXminer stats.

Ran several laps of the field and then did a “you vs. you” round where each lap must be faster or face a penalty. Closed with some Sally Up and Sally Down squats (and merkins!) and 5 minutes of mary. Credit to Bad Boy Pole Dancer for inspiration.

Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:6f
