Five suitors showed up for Vinny’s VQ. It went like this:
Happy Hour & Icebreakers. DQs (15)/ Arm Circles (10 and 5) each arm/ Invisible jump ropes (15)/ Helicopters (15).
Speed dating at Love Hill. Partner up: Crawl bears, Backwards lunges, Triple Jump Copperhead Squats (2) to the top of the hill while partner runs (and switch). If they came back, it was meant to be.
Dinner date by candle (street) light. New partners: Line tracers at the tennis courts while remaining suitors ate crab cakes (100), flutter kicks (200), SSH (300). Team numbers to completion of the date.
Palate cleansers. John Merkinroes – each corner of the room (tennis court) : Dive bombers (15), HR merkins (15), werkins (15), merkins (15).
After dinner drinks. New partners: Leg tosses -15 straight; 30 left/right (alternate); 40 random (two sets of 20).
Front porch goodbyes. Circle up. Ring of fire. PAX in plank position. 5 wiper merkins each around the ring. Date’s over. Time to go home. Back to the flag.
YHC took us out. Always grateful for the opportunity.

I knew there was a reason for posting at Batteau this morning. Great Q Vinny! Solid way to start the day with 5 regular PAX members—way to push. Speed dating was brutal after Century Classic (CSAUP). But needed.
Only those who post understand.
Great Q, Vinny. Very challenging. Hit all the spots that needed to be hit as well as a few that were hoping to rest! ?
You’re bringing a different flavor to the Batteau Monday morning potato stew.
Glad to have you coming out!
Solid VQ Vinny.
Way to work guys – Love Hill after the CSAUP was no joke !
See y’all in the gloom.
Great sounding VQ, Vinny! Way to step up and lead! Well done!
Thanks Bootleg. It’s been great, and y’all have been very welcoming. Batteau has lots of options for pain; what I love about it.
Thanks Flatline. Love hill (speed dating) is like Sanka in your cup!
Thanks Swirly. Glad to be a part of this awesome group.
Appreciate it Kubota. It’s been a lot of fun and a lot of hard work these past 7 weeks. Looking forward to what lies ahead.
Way to go, Vinny on the VQ! Looking forward to many more from you in the future!
Thank you Slurpee. I’m looking forward to putting them together as well.
That was a really thoughtful Q, Vinnie–my legs, arms and core were all tired. Thanks for being willing to split up that last set of leg tosses! I was definitely dreading the reverse uphill lunges this morning, but it was just what my legs needed to beat the soreness.
That means a lot, Sippy. I always notice how maticulous you are at each exercise. I need to be more like that.
What a Q Vinny. I am so sorry to have missed this morning. Way to bring the pain on a Monday! Here’s to many more.
No worries bro! It’s all because of you. We did uphill crawl bears in your honor.
Sounds like a smoker. Well done, Vinny. Glad to have you out there with us.
Thanks UpChuck. It’s been a blast these past 7 weeks. Can’t wait for what lies ahead.
Strong VQ Vinny. Well done!
Thanks Gumbo.
