The PAX: Jenner, Subprime, Flutie Flakes, Bone, Dr. Dandelion, Deflator, Hightower, Speedo
Forty Days and forty nights (or so) of rain suddenly subsided, and 9 PAX emerged from the relative safety of their fartsacks into the gloom for a burden-filled city tour like no other before….ever. It was an epic adventure — here’s what happened.
Warm-Up: 10xSSH, 10xIW, 10xSlo-Merkins
The Thang:
Grab the big ol’log that Dr. D gifted to the PAX for a Indian run jaunt to the upper playground area for 20 reps of 5 exercises: Derkins, BWS, LBC, Dips and Mountain Climbers. 100 total reps. Grab cinderblock #1 and the log for a short mosey to deposit said log in a safe location and then onward to…
The bus stop. Repeato the 20 reps of the exercise circuit: Derkins, BWS, LBC, Dips and Mountain Climbers. 200 reps total so far. Grab cinderblock #2 and head off to…
The super fancy Discovery Elementary School mini golf putting green. With two blocks now, the PAX split into two columns for a double Indian run, passing the blocks off as PAX made their way to the front of the column. At the school, once again, repeato the circuit for another 100 reps. Total reps up to 300 now. Grab the blocks, plus the one found at the school (where are these damn cinderblocks coming from??) and head out into the gloom, up and down the hill, toward…
The Rock Spring pump house. With three cinderblocks now, the burden was great, and PAX split into small groups as they passed the cement friends around. Upon arrival at the pump house, another quick circuit, totaling 400 reps of the Derkins, BWS, LBC, Dips and Mountain Climbers. Surprise surprise, a fourth cinderblock was discovered. The PAX gleefully added it to the bunch and puttered onward to…
The Arena. After struggling up the hill that shall not be named, several of the PAX nearly passed out (or maybe it was just YHC), but all made it to the arena for a final circuit, bringing the total reps this morning to 500! A job well done, the PAX moseyed back to the start carrying yet another discovered cinderblock, bringing the bounty to five.
COT: Amazing teamwork! Life is full of burdens, and as we move through it, like during today’s beatdown, the load often increases. We must rely on fellow PAX to succeed and no one man can do it alone. It takes a pack! Now, go out into the world and remember that lesson. Be the best dad, son, brother, uncle, boss, employee that you can possibly be. Be a leader and keep your eyes open for those that need a hand. And don’t shy away from grabbing a hand when you need one yourself. Again, it takes a pack! Aye!!
