It’s April but winter seems to be holding on. Ten SOJ’ers broke the strong hold of the fartsack this morning (and it was strong) for a cold and dark beatdown that went something like this:
COP:
DQs x 10
Helicopters x 12
SSH x 25
LBCs x 20
Alternating shoulder taps x 20
Long mosey around all fields
7 of Diamonds
Round 1: 7 burpees at each corner of field
Round 2: 14 merkins at each corner
Round 3: 21 2-count flutters at each corner
Round 4: 28 monkey humpers at each corner
Mosey to another soccer field.
Bearpees
Cross field by performing 1 burpee followed by 4 count bear crawl
Repeat with 2 burpees and 8 count bear crawl
Repeat with 3 burpees and 12 count bear crawl
Repeat with 4 burpees and 16 count bear crawl
Mosey back to the flag.
Numbers, Names, Announcements, J’ville and Ollivander took us out.
Announcements and Prayer Requests:
The Forge starts this Thursday at Huguenot High School
Lots of prayers needed for the Nicolette family (known to Shakedown and family) who were hit by a truck while on spring break in Kitty Hawk. Mom and Dad did not survive the crash and have left behind their kids. This is really hard to imagine…take a moment to hug your family tight today. https://www.wavy.com/news/north-carolina/2-pedestrians-die-child-hurt-after-being-hit-by-truck-in-kitty-hawk/1893342891
NMS:
YHC was looking forward to this April Q thinking (naively) that it would be both warmer and maybe a little lighter. Big giant “NO” on both fronts this morning. For some reason, all the lights have been off recently at No Toll making for a very dark entrance. As Gumbo noted, they must be taking off for an extended spring break.
The Bearpees were a huge hit with the PAX this morning. If it’s mumblechatter worthy, then it’ll be worth bringing back.
Great to see Dr. Tryhard back out this morning after his lengthly bout with the plague. Thanks for posting the shovel flag. Sorry the PAX was unable to deliver a crowbar after you locked your keys in your truck while putting away said shovel flag. YHC trusts Ollivander got you home safe and you were able to get the spare keys.
The entire New Market crew was noticeably missing this morning…it wasn’t because YHCs name was on the Q sheet was it?
Gentlemen, thanks for allowing YHC to lead this morning…always a pleasure. Make today a great one!
Peace…I’m out!

Many prayers for the Nicolette family. Unimaginable is right.
Tobit – hell of a Q my friend. That was painful from start to finish, and I felt like Bear-pee after the Bearpee circuit…OUCH! Well done sir. Thank you for that beatdown.
Deep thoaghts from Doozy:
Never let a math geek be the Q!! Oh well at least he didn’t try and out do Dr. Try Hards 8 count super merkins
Never again follow Gumbo on a run
When it’s your turn to Q, run a lot, the PAX loves it and always have such nice things to say about it
These have been deep thoughts with Doozy
Great Q, Tobit my shoulders are burning
Hell of a beatdown. Thanks Tobit. Thanks Jville for bringing my headlamp. Thanks Pax for the prayers lifted for Holly’s family https://obxtoday.com/top-stories/k-h-police-pedestrians-were-following-state-law-before-fatal-accident/
Tragic story. Keep us posted if you hear of anything the school is doing to help the kids and family.
Doozy – those are some deep thoughts and truth nuggets for sure. Apologies for the vapor trail — the Bearpees had me on fumes…literally.
Thx Tdog – excellent beatdown for some workout-starved muscle groups. Yes, got into my car no problem later – many thx to Olivander for graceously giving me a list home.
Those bear-pees were brutal and I was consistently taking up the rear in last place. Thanks to Tobit for embodying the F3 spirit when, after finishing, he looped back around and encouraged me as I was sucking wind and finished with me. Great job modeling leadership!
