The Thang
After a short mosey around slalom course (pkg lot) Pax begun 4 rounds of a sprint (full length of pkg lot) consisting of 4 legs (40 yds each), 1st leg – bear crawls, 2nd leg – high knees, 3rd leg – lunges w/twist, 4th leg – sprints. Pax observed Shrink in his usual gazelle like stride getting to the end to fist bump everyone as they plank to the 6.
A brief mosey found 4 coupons randomly placed in the grass on the way to the Big Johnson. Pax separated into 4 groups of 4 to perform 3 sets of 3 reps of 3 different exercises (Military Press, Curls, Goblet Squats) passing the coupon around so not to let it hit the ground.
Pax then performed 3 sets of 3 Merkins on their coupon while the rest of group planked. Sumo squat to the 6.
A long mosey to The Pit saw our #HIM perform 15 leg step-ups (each side) followed by 15 box jumps. An exhausted Pax then moseyed to the Big Johnson which had been looming in the background. Pax heads were down hoping it was only a dream. YHC as a result led a lap around the BJohnson to prolong the impending doom.
The Pax then paired up to perform 2 rounds of Wheelbarrows UP the hill and backward lunges down the hill or crab walk depending on position, then flapjack.
Pax circled up to then perform 10 firecrackers (think Insanity High Knee Tuck Jumps). Pax moseyed again for a lap around the Big Johnson.
After lap, our chests needed working so Pax did 3 different Merkins – 15 Indian style Merkins (facing each other w/hand clap), 12 hand release Merkins, 10 SunGod hand Merkins (each side).
To finish, the Pax did two 75 yard full-out sprints in staggered single line formation. YHC had to kick into gear hearing the pounding footsteps of Sandy fast approaching from behind.

CoT-
Blistex led Pax in prayer giving thanks to Sky Q and asking for his guidance to become better men, husbands, fathers, brothers, and sons. Announcements included opening new AO Tomahawk on June 3rd at Shawnee Mission Park. Blistex, ThomasT and Taps preparing for 2:00 GoRuck Light event later that day to commemorate the 75th Anniversary of D-Day and the storming of the Normandy beaches.
Naked Man Moleskin
YHC overheard mumblechatter questioning if a Jamaican Bobsled team ever inverted themselves to get face first in the grass while running with their hands up a hill with feet in another man’s hands. The Pax seemed to think that would only happen after a does of a little Jamaican home grown herb. They was wrong.
