A Taste of Colorado 🤠 🐎

Date: 2026-06-09 AO: Middle Tooth Q: Toothless , PAX: Esposa, Toothless, Pep, DrRupp, TheShield FNGs: None COUNT: 5 CONDITIONS: Rain threatened in the forecast but it was just gray and breezy, surprisingly dry actually on that manicured field!
WARMUP: A little broga followed by active warmup e.g. skips, shuffles, toy soldiers, etc.
THE THANG: A Taste of Colorado :face_with_cowboy_hat: :racehorse: Head to the field
Barrels Relay PAX run the barrel pattern one at a time. The waiting PAX perform static exercises AMRAP and cycle until all PAX have completed the barrel pattern. Incorrect pattern results in a time penalty. PAX must beat their group time each round to avoid a penalty.
Round 1 – Prisoner Squats Round 2 – Merkins Round 3 – WWI’s Round 4 – Hillbillies
Stampede Bear crawl sharks and minnows. Simple as that. 3 rounds.
Climbing Pikes Peak The Manitou Incline is a set of 2768 railroad tie steps gaining 2000ft of elevation in a mile. Let’s climb it. PAX perform 200 mountain climbers each, each side is half.
Quarter Horse Dash The namesake of the Quarter Horse, a primary stock and mountain horse breed, came from being the fastest at a quarter mile run. Three of four sides of the jogging track is exactly 1/4 of a mile. Run a lap with someone calling finish times. Continue to run laps and beat that time or your new time else be faced with AMRAP exercises for the remaining laps.
MARY: Dealers choice starting with 10 bucking broncos aka donkey kicks
MOLESKINE: Phew! I felt that one – maybe it was the humidity but there were several points that had me gassed. Barrels relay was a tremendous success with this group, with the time being improved upon every round from 1:51 down to a tie with the last round at exactly 1:41.05 for all PAX to complete the pattern. Stampede aka bear crawl sharks and minnows featured athletic feats and full football play calling, with Esposa having several diving tags and DrRupp and Toothless successfully running option and cross patterns to confuse the sharks for 3 rounds in a row as the remaining minnows. YHC cut down the 1/4 mile run after the first lap for time and energy bc if you can’t do it, don’t Q it! PAX still ran the field and back and kept it at a loping gate though. DrRupp topped things off with some wild yet controlled buckin’ broncos :muscle:
ANNOUNCEMENTS: – Check Slack, of course – Grow school this Saturday – 7/11 convergence with SLT handoff
COT: – Prayers for Pep, Toothless, TheShield

Big Freedia, Small % of Completed Passes

AO: middle-tooth
Q: Pole Dancer
PAX: Cocktail, TheShield, sooner, Oatmeal, Matador, Toothless, Young and Restless, Focker, bluemule, Esposa, Betty Ford, DrRupp, Steve Austin, Joe Dickey
FNGs: None
COUNT: 15
CONDITIONS: Dewy and Cool

WARMUP: Quick mosey to the fields, active warmup, stretching OYO while delivering instructions for the thang

THE THANG: DORA and Ultimate Frisbee! Set to the rhythmic stylings of New Orleans bounce tunes (obviously a fan favorite of the PAX)

Paired off for a DORA buy-in proceeding some all-offense ultimate!

50x Supermans
100x Burpees
150x Squats
200x Mountain Climbers

Once completed, we split into teams for a half field offense-focused frisbee scrimmage. Each possession ends in either a point for the offense (scoring a goal) or a point for the defense (a turnover). At the end of the possession, go back to the start and switch who’s on offense. Loser of the point performed 5 merkins.

After some lackluster attempts at offense, we instituted a game-wide 10 burpee penalty for each subsequent possession that did not end in a goal. The result was 4 straight possessions that did not end in a goal.

Moral of the story: Middle Tooth plays STIFLING defense (and our completion % more than 10 yards downfield was worse than Jayson Tatum’s 3 point % last night).

MOLESKINE: Welcome to three PAX downrange, come back around next time you’re in town!

Also great to see a return of TheShield!

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Brewsday today, first beers on moneyshot! Yours truly will be in attendance, see y’all there!

COT: Prayers for the dearly departed

CONDITIONS: :barely_sunny:

WARM UP: :plank: ⭕️
It was day 2 of plankpril so all pax needed to do a 66 second plank. We stood in a circle and took turns doing a plank while the rest of the pax did 66 seconds of warm up exercises including arm circles, imperial walkers, lunges, Bonnie Blairs, squats, and others.

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.

THANG 2: Dorabell :school_satchel: :kettlebell:
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.

MOLESKIN: YHC has been away on a health hiatus and it felt good to be back. Grateful for F3 Nashville.
