New skins, old wine

A half dozen posted at the southern end of the Libbie Mill Library parking lot for the temporarily relocated GridIron. We exited our vehicles prior to the start time, probably due to some enthusiasm for temporary new grounds, and tried to ignore the cutting northeast wind.

Advertised as a Hot Potato affair, we followed through with this and everyone had a go. Chum Bucket started with a mosey to the wind-shielded loading dock of the library for the startup COP with SSHs, DQs, Russian Soldiers, and Arm Circles. Moved into a nearby field for five round rotation of 10 Merkins and 10 two count Freddy Mercuries. Hop up and Lunge Walk until time to tag.

Byproduct took round 2 and ran us south to the grassy area south of the library parking lot. Completed traditional Jack Webb with Merkins and unweighted Overhead Presses. Remained in place and partnered for two rounds of PLTs. Lunge Walk for remaining few minutes.

Tater ran us down the hill and along the creekside trail. We stopped at a couple of new exercise stations. At the first one, we completed a couple of rounds of Dips alternated with Derkins. At the second one, we completed several rounds of Pull Ups and Chin Ups.

White Deer brought us back along the trail to the high point of the hill and had us pull large rocks from the drainage basin. We tossed these stones into the nearby grass, Bear Crawled to the tossed stone, and tossed it again. After a couple of rounds of this, we turned and worked our way back, tossing a few more times and completing Overhead Presses, Weighted Squats, and Curls a couple of times, too. We returned our stones to the basin.

Attila took us back to the library via mosey. We completed some Pickle Pounders adjacent to the library building and resumed our mosey to the middle of the parking lot where, after a round of Tracers, we completed Burpees in each space across one column of parking followed by WWII Sit Ups, then we repeated the same.

Johnsonville finished at the loading dock with a triple check involving People’s Chair, Merkins, and a mosey down the parking lot and back. We returned to the vehicles, circled up, and Attila took us out.

Coffee at Crafted in the Libbie Mill development afterwards. Good food and coffee and the heating system works well. Most of us hit Fauquier Avenue in the City’s Bellevue neighborhood where we saw Blue Moon at mile 22 of his marathon. Nice work pushing through Blue Moon. The extended fellowship was fun. Johnsonville makes a nice Bloody Mary. Sorry if I missed something guys.
