PAX: NOAA, Baywatch, Yard Sale, Obadiah, Hightower, OnlyFans, Byrdman, Half-Caff FNGs: None
COUNT: 8
WARMUP: Various stretches across the field. ‘Mercans, WGS, Cobra. Various running back.

THE THANG: The baseball field was simulated on a football field by running to the sideline 30, mid field, sideline 30 and goal line. 1 pax runs the bases while others do exercises for encouragement. SSH, Imperial Skywalkers, Lateral lunges, and Moroccan nightclubs. Each time a pax reaches home plate they pick up a teammate and continue running. The exercise changes for those not running each time the pax reach home plate. Eventually everyone is running and 1 by 1 each pax stops running in the order they started running. They begin cycling through the exercises for encouragement. Eventually everyone stops running.

All pax ran bases again as a group and stopped at each for more exercises.

Coach was mean and finished off with burpee shuttle runs every 10 yards to the 50.

MARY: 250 reps to celebrate America 250

ANNOUNCEMENTS: 2nd F – Baywatch going away event. This Saturday at Rambler’s. Talk to Doodles for details.

COT: In life there is pain and suffering. Pain is not optional; suffering is. Choose suffering that is meaningful so that the world doesn’t choose it for you.

COT: Convergence is one of the few times we all get together as a region. It’s a chance to meet and reconnect with PAX from all over the region and remember that we’re bigger than just our normal workout group. We’re a fraternal organization (minus the initiation ritual). It’s a Brotherhood, bound by common interest in Getting Right, but also looking out for one another (Leave no man where you found him) and our community. Great to see you all and looking forward to Year 9.
