COUNT: 13
CONDITIONS: A little reprieve from the swampiness, somewhere around 75° :sunrise:

WARMUP:
Made a circle. PAX alternated doing 13 (or more…) squats and doing one of these exercises for a minute: arm circles, imperial walkers, pitcher’s stretch, lunges, reverse lunges, Bonnie Blairs, fire hydrants, donkey kicks (“the wrong way” says Cowboy, his way was better), mountain climbers, Lt. Dans, peoples chair, around the world lunges, and more squats. And we took turns planking during the exercises.

THE THANG:
>From home plate, one PAX pulls the Frisbee and bernies around the bases while the rest of the PAX play defense and try to tag him out. No running with the disc, no force outs, round as many bases as you can. Record was 5 bases (home run + single).

Closed with 5 minutes of Mary and stretching.

MOLESKIN:
:dagger_knife: Star Blade McCoy has only been posting for 2 weeks and is moving away in 6 weeks. A lesser man would’ve said “there’s no time to start something new.” Star Blade said “I’ll do the right thing right now” and found a group of other HIMs to make him better.

:man-lifting-weights: By my count, we did 2,532 squats altogether – including the 10 I gave DP for his sarcasm during the COT. Thanks Toothless for the coffee. Thanks Oatmeal for being AOQ and an encourager. Picture already posted above! :point_up_2:

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
