The Fourth F

AO: atlantis
Q: Firefox
PAX: SalPal, Pole Dancer, sooner, Oatmeal, Subway, Siri, Toothless
FNGs: None
COUNT: 8
CONDITIONS: Misty with a light haze of bugs

WARMUP: Mosey down to the farthest field, plus some SSH, WMH, and GM.

THE THANG:
Part 1: F3 Disc Golf
All PAX were given a disc golf putter. A Kanjam goal was set at the other end of the field. PAX had to get their disc into the goal in as few throws as possible.
– Lunge walk to the landing spot of your first throw
– Bear crawl to the landing spot of your second throw
– Murder bunny to all subsequent landing spots until complete
We multiplied the best and worst scores to determine how many burpees to do, which I believe ended up being 3 x 5 on the first pass.

We repeated this except doing bear crawls to the first landing spot and murder bunnies thereafter. Results were much better with us doing 3 x 4 burpees on the second round.

Thang 2: Ultimate!
Between points, scoring teams did 10 merkins, scored-upon teams did 5 burpees.
SalPal Pole Dancer Toothless and Subway (shirts) versus YHC, sooner Oatmeal and Siri (pasty white skins). It was a back-and-forth affair to start until Team PWS started pulling ahead. Shirts made a nice mini-run at the end.

MOLESKINE: Thanks for the push to pivot on the plan today. The real birthday Q at bomber tomorrow!

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Oh so many. Check the calendar. Off the top of my head:
– Hunger Games
– Brewsday farewell to Bareback
– Night Moves
– Run at Geodis

COT:
– Disappointment to process and new challenges to navigate for SalPal and family
– Road trip well wishes for Toothless

Thanks for the opportunity to lead! Post any favorite moments/plays in the thread!

Puff, Puff, Pass

AO: atlantis
Q: Puzzlah
PAX: SalPal, Toothless, Pole Dancer, Schnauzer, Grandpa Bear (DR), Uncle Rico, Tuna (DR), Redeye (DR)
FNGs: 3 Uncle Rico, Tuna (DR), Redeye (DR)
COUNT: 9
CONDITIONS: Dank

WARMUP: Indian run to find an entrance to the field. Tossed the rugby ball around a bit in the dark.

420 theme here:
4 exercises, 20 reps each:

20 ssh
20 shoulder taps
20 mountain climbers
20 Burpees

So fun, we did it a second time and did the world’s greatest stretch while we went through the rules for the Thang.

THE THANG:

Deep inhales all around.

400 m run to the fence
20 merkens
20 lunges (L+R = 1)

Do that 4 times

When we finished, did a little pole run:
Ran Forward to the first pole, then ran backwards to the start (50 out, 50 back)
Ran forward to the second pole, then ran backwards to the start (100 out, 100 back)
Ran forward to the third pole, then ran backwards to the start (150 out, 150 back)
Counting is hard in this state, so all distances are made up.

Moseyed back to the flag and finished with 6 minutes of Mary.

MOLESKINE:
This Q does not condone, advocate, or judge anyone’s partaking in the events surrounding today’s theme of 420. But, good vibes, good buds, and good times were had by all. Grandpa Bear joined us from Louisville, brought two of his work colleagues, Uncle Rico (who lives in Green Hills) and Tuna (didn’t catch where he was from), and they picked up Redeye in the lobby of the hotel as they were leaving. Only my second Q, so grateful to have the support of SalPal, Toothless, and Pole Dancer to guide our 3 FNGs and helping me through some cadences.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
atlantis Bring a friend May 2.
Ultimate Frisbee May 9 (did not catch where)

COT:
Went from a silly Q to serious discussion of Passover, wrestling with the challenges we face (discretion), and the power of Hope. Redeye opened up about the challenges he has faced and inspired all of us to seize every opportunity we have to be better men and to overcome the odds. Prayers for jobs, families, clarity, safe travels, and health and happiness.

THANG 1: Lopsided Races :man-running: :bear:
Pax paired off and repeated raced to a mark 5 yds away and back. One pax in each pair sprinted and the other bear crawled. The winner of the race had to go 5 steps farther in the subsequent one. The sprinters won the first couple and then crawlers started to even the tide.

Pairs did a Dora with 100 each of squats, Freddy Mercurys, fire hydrants and Lt. Dans. Plus, there were two kettlebells (16 and 24 kg), after both pax in a pair carried one it was passed down the line.

Bench Warmers

AO: atlantis
Q: Firefox
PAX: Sally, Toothless, Pole Dancer, Three Stooges
FNGs: None
COUNT: 5
CONDITIONS: No complaints

WARMUP: Many thanks to Three Stooges and Sally who joined me for 10 minutes of mindful breathing/meditation prior to starting. From there, we did a short parking lot mosey and stretching.

THE THANG: Despite the 2 months of lead time, all my theme ideas were a bit half-baked; so, I went simple. 4 sets of exercises, each repeated 3 times.

Set 1: The Sequence plus Broad Jumps
– 40x Plank Jacks
– 30x Mountain Climbers
– 20x Merkins
– 20x FLBACs
– 20x BLBACs
– 20x Air Presses
– Broad Jump across the short dimension of the parking lot and back

Set 2: Time to ride the bench!
– Step-ups with knee raise
– Bulgarian split squats
– One-legged stands (from seated position, while holding one leg off the ground, use your other leg to raise yourself to standing)
First round we did 20 reps per leg, then 15 reps, then 10 reps.

Set 3: Keep the benches warm! 30 seconds on, 10 seconds off, rotating through the following:
– Bench flutters (with core engaged and seated on the ground facing the bench, hold one foot above the bench seat and the other below… then swap their positions)
– Decline mountain climbers (feet on bench seat, hands on ground)
– Copenhagen plank right side (PAX were encouraged to pick a modification that worked for them. Mine was with both feet on the bench, single forearm down on the ground, doing small knee crunches with my non-supporting leg)
– Copenhagen plank left side

Set 4: Did I forget to do any hollow body holds? 40sec on, 15 sec off… 3 times through. The last hold was challenging.
– Shoulder touch plank jacks
– Hollow Body Hold

MOLESKINE: This was my first time trying to incorporate meditation at both the beginning and end of a Q. Looking for feedback from the PAX (particularly Three Stooges and Sally, but definitely chime in Toothless and Pole Dancer) on how that went for you.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
– Game Night 3/12
– Murder Mile

COT:
– Everyone shared.
– Everyone took 2 minutes of silence for prayer intentions, let their thoughts run their course, and then clear their minds.

Always an honor and privilege to lead, gentlemen!
