10 beasts showed up this morning for a good ole’ slippery when wet workout at Satan’s Hill. Swoop and YHC went back and forth when planning the Q due to the possible threat of snow and slippery conditions. We were pleasantly surprised by the sunny and 70-degree morning rather than the snow! According to a local dentist that informed us and a recent patient that “you gotta get it wet before you stick it in,” the following went down:
YHC started us off with a Warmup: SSH, Helicopters, Arm Circles, Reverse Arm Circles, Deadman Han
COP 1: Partner up for a Dora from Hell – 100 Side lunges with block thruster in the middle, 200 Incline merkins, 300 Windshield wipers over vertical block; Timer performed lunges carrying coupon overhead which gradually became carrying coupon perched on the 6-pack x 20 yards and Bernie back.
COP 2: Triple Check – Curls with coupon, Kick Sits, Timer runs to end of the parking lot and back.
Q tossed to Swoop…

COP 4: Circle up for various stretches called by PAX members.
Numbers, Names, Announcements (Purple Rain’s 1 Year Q at Rock N’ Roll 1/20, Frozen Triangle 2/10, Grow Ruck 5/3-5/5, Prayer Requests (Blacktop’s father battling illness, Yeehaw’s coworker’s wife battling cancer, Cookie’s friend’s father battling illness, Continued prayers for Yeehaw’s daughter, Liv, as she continues to show improvements (Girl is a fighter!), Continued prayers for Wildcat in his recovery from recent shoulder surgery (Hope to see you out there Monday at the Alamo).
You could hear moans and groans throughout the Dora with very little mumble chatter, but it picked up as the workout went along. From silly banter about Cookie pulling into the parking lot, parking for 30 seconds, then zooming off back home (we all assumed nature called, but he forgot his gloves), to excellent dental advice, to Nancy Lopez getting a second wind during COP 4 with some mean Jazzercise. We determined he just had to “get wet to stick it in.” It was a great morning and fun had by all. It was a pleasure to lead this group and look forward to many more. Keep pushing fellas!
