FNGs: None
COUNT: 14
CONDITIONS: Wonderful

WARMUP: The usual warmups with a few extra stretches

THE THANG: PAX embarked on the 3rd Annual Christmas Light Alert, exploring the festive streets of Westeros under YHC’s lead. This 2.6-mile mosey combined holiday spirit with heart-pumping fitness, as we stopped to honor neighborhood decorations with exercises:
– White Christmas Lights = 5 Iron Mikes (each leg counts as 1/2)
– Multicolored Lights = 5 Merkins
– Inflatable Deer or Standing Statues = 5 Burpees
The neighborhood showed up in force with decorations, and so did we. PAX powered through countless lights, racking up reps and burning 590 calories in the process.
Bonus Challenge: A festive bear crawl across the neighborhood bridge, adding some extra grit to the evening.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Lean Pax is almost here!

COT: Prayers for Courage in the New Year

Accidental Q

AO: westeros
Q: Michelin Man
PAX: CubCadet, Vector, Sherlock, Tim the Toolman, DintyMoore
FNGs: None
COUNT: 6
CONDITIONS: quality

WARMUP: I think Cub Cadet led the warmup at 5am…

THE THANG:

Made this up on the fly as YHC did not expect to Q. My plans to Q were an educated wish.

1. 6 sprints up the hill. Until Vector is mad.
2. Ring of squat-fire. No not a Mexican restaurant’s revenge, this was just what is in the tin, hold an Al gore and take turns squatting. Last one out (Toolman of course) wins.
3. MORA. It’s a DORA but More! 300 lunges, 250 pointers. 200 squats. 100 imperial walkers. Run up the steps and do 20 of: flutters, hillbillies, or sumo squats.
4. Windshield wipers until time.

COT: Your accidental Q was excited to make this up as we went along. Fin.
