Humble Mary

Before the beatdown, YNAB brought out his Hoover ball to toss around. Gave me ideas, so I asked the PAX to bring it along. Mumblechatter.

To prepare for the 9/11 Lincoln Memorial stair climb, we committed a HIPAA violation: burpees at the top of the stairs, American hammers at the bottom.

Then to the field, where we divided into two 5-PAX groups, lined up facing each other, and proceeded to karaoke the length of the football field while tossing the ball from line to line. Ball drop got a burpee from each PAX. We scored multiple touchdowns that way.

Then I pivoted to a much less successful ball exercise that I won’t even bother to describe here since no Q anywhere will ever want to repeat it.

Then we did a few Ladder Sprints. For #1, we turned at the 15, 25, and 50 yard lines; for #2, the 25, 50, and 75 yard lines; and #3, the 50, 75 and goal line. Everyone scored a TD; everyone got a medal.
Mary: I got an idea to modify Mary into Humble Mary. Humble Mary means each PAX performs the called exercise AMRAP as quickly as possible to exhaustion. It’s a fine way to end a beatdown, and I’ll definitely do it again. For this one, we did Merkins, Flutters, LBCs, Diamond Merkins, and that exercise we named after Glee.COT: Lots of announcements, including Dad’s Camp, 9/11 stair climb, tonight’s 2nd F that starts in about 5 minutes at Solace, and a few others.

Honored to lead you fine men.
