Back 2 School! 📚

AO: titan
Q: Toothless
PAX: Pep, Cropduster, Sherlock, Spinal Tap, Tim the Toolman
FNGs: None
COUNT: 6
CONDITIONS: Pristine – gloomy but clear skies & the perfect temp. Good enough for some engagement photos! :camera_with_flash:

WARMUP: Mosey around the parthenon, pick up latecomers on the next lap which transitioned into a School Bus Indian Run – each rotation meant 15 merkins.

THE THANG: BACK 2 SCHOOL! :books:

Split into 3 groups, post up at each station with 1 timer group running the established bus route. The other 2 groups go to 1 of the first pair of stations, performing an exercise until the runners return. Repeat at the next two stations after every group has gone through each role. Split up each full rotation with a bus route indian run.

These were our “core” subjects 😉

English
– “Apart” vs “a part”
– Hello Dollys, spread those legs “apart”

Math
– Ratios, multiplication
– Captain Thors, 1:4 ratio of Big Boy Sit-ups to American Hammers

Science
– Inertia
– J-Lo’s, it takes force to stop movement in a given direction

History
– Construction started on the Parthenon in 447
– 4 Merkins, 4 Dry Docks, 7 Mountain climbers

Once PAX got back to their “homeroom” i.e. starting position, they served detention. This meant performing 20 Side Straddle Hops in silence and ending together, otherwise repeato. Repeat til successful.

After that, dealer’s choice til time.

MOLESKINE: YHC arrived early and marked out our stations in sidewalk chalk – hope others are confused throughout the day. We completed 2 full “school days” i.e. rotations through each station, and I think the 1:4 sit ups to hammers was my least favorite. Others feel free to chime in. Only had to serve one round of detention with Sherlock being the offender the first round, but the teacher let the class off easy when Pep’s cadence was slightly off of the group cadence – technically he did end on 20.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: SO MANY. Check the -f3-nashville-general channel for the latest, events really kick off next week!

COT:
– Prayers for work stress, family with sleep struggles, and starts to the school year

As always, it was an honor to lead, men! Thanks for having me out to start the day out right! Until next time –
