An elite 8 came out into the humidity this morning to tackle the fields of No Toll. The sprinklers were a nice added touch. YHC was hoping for bigger numbers this morning but guesses the pull of Ultimate Frisbee at Heartbreak took some away. Here’s what went down.
COP:
6 burpees OYO
19 LBCs
38 SSH (that’s right, 6,19,38 – today is YHCs 38th bday)
15 DQs
THANG:
Mosey to corner of back field.
Hindenberg BLIMPS
Run to each of the 4 corners of the field and perform exercise:
Round 1: 5 Burpees
Round 2: 10 Lunges
Round 3: 15 Imperial Walkers
Round 4: 20 Merkins
Round 5: 25 Plank Jacks
Round 6: 30 Squats
Total mileage for all 6 rounds was about 1.9 miles.
Plank-o-rama
Frisbee Crawl
Mosey to front field and grab frisbee. One PAX member throws frisbee and all PAX runs after. As soon as frisbee hits the ground, stop and perform 2 burpees. Then race to frisbee via called exercise. First PAX member to frisbee gets the next throw. Exercises were bear crawl, polar bear crawl, forward crab walk, backward crab walk.Repeat as needed.
Suicides
Mosey to basketball court for a few minutes of suicides.
3 rounds: forward, backward, sideways
Mosey back to parking lot for numbers, names, announcements.
YHC took us out.
NMS:
It has been a while since YHC Q’d and so this morning felt like my VQ. Not sure why the long absence from the Q sheet (could be nerves mixed with a little laziness). But, YHCs bday felt like as good a time as any to get back at it.
Many of the PAX know that YHC enjoys a good run and so did not want to disappoint those looking for a running intense beatdown this morning (you’re welcome, Gumbo). The Hindenberg took a little longer than YHC thought but it served its purpose well.
YHC was surprised to see Mr. Roper this morning since he seems to have caught the ultimate frisbee bug. He lit up like a kid in a candy store when YHC pulled out the frisbee but his dreams were swiftly squashed.
As YHC mentioned during COT, it is a privilege to be a part of this group. Thanks for pushing me to be stronger and to be a better version of myself.
Announcements:
June 23 – Puppy Pile @ 7
June 26 – Gumbo’s HR Derby. No Toll AO moves to Robious Elementary. Don’t show up to Huguenot.
July 4 – Convergence at Tredegar @ 7
Peace…I’m out!

Happy Birthday, Tobit! Nice looking beatdown!
Happy Birthday Tobit. Great Q. I figured you would include some miles and you definitely didn’t disappoint. That form of the BLIMPS is a killer. Those plank jacks add up quickly.
Great to have you back in the rotation. Hope to see another Tobit Q soon.
So sorry to miss this, Tobit, but calls needed to be argued across town (and the old summer tour passport needed a new stamp).
It looks like a solid beat-down, great job.
Happy Birthday Tobit!
Happy Birthday Tobit. Glad to see you back on the Q sheet. Seeing Mr. Roper’s dreams squashed when he briefly thought we were playing Ultimate again was great but a little sad at the same time. He seemed happy with the bear crawls/crab walks to the frisbee though.
And don’t sell the Hindenberg short, it was 2 fields worth of running which reminded me of a mini Old Glory.
Happy Birthday, way to make Roper wish he had traveled!
Appreciate those birthday wishes fellas…it was a good one!
Well done yesterday….y’all rocked it!
