THE THANG: After a brief fellowship lap the PAX gathered around the circle at the 50 yard line to learn the true meaning of Festivus: a non-denominational holiday filled with one sided ridicule and mindless physical tests of strength. Also, there was an aluminum pole. • The tradition of Festivus began with the Airing of Grievances:
The QIC had a lot of problems with a select few PAX, and now they were going to hear about it! The QIC barked the ways in which they had disappointed him over the past year. After each name was read, and an appropriate insult hurled, one Merkin was performed collectively by the group. – As Festivus rolled on, we came to the Feats of Strength:
PAX lined up in pairs on the 50-yard line. Each team took turns carrying the Festivus pole to the goal line while the other team member did a high knee, jubilant skip alongside of him. Switching positions at the goal line. The remaining PAX performed a number of exercises while waiting their turns: Mountain Climbers, Star Jumps, LBC’s, Heisman Shuffle, Bonnie Blair’s
• Headed over to the pull up bars – 2 rounds, max reps each, while remaining PAX performed o Soccer kicks
o Peter Parkers
o Freddie Mercuries
o Dips
o Break Dancers
• Short mosey to the bike racks, aka Bear Crawl arches where we…well….Bear crawled under the bike racks. • 2 rounds of 10 Upper Deckers, 20 Derkins, 20 Bulgarian Split Squats • 1 round of 40 Dips
MARY: Flutter kicks, J-Lo’s, Alabama Prom Dates, Nolan Ryans
ANNOUNCEMENTS: The ARC is coming. Sadly, we are discontinuing the 12-hour Ruck option this year because too many people died last year.
COT: No matter what holiday you celebrate, real, fictitious, or nothing at all….I wish all of you and your families a safe and happy December and a joyous New Year.
