An intrepid group of 8 SOJ leading men, took to the comfortable streets of The Forge for an expected Q of breathing exercises, exploration and quality tunes. Spoiler alert, none of this occurred. 5.30 non Garmin time struck, no Snuff, we roll on. Here is how hot potato things went down.
Rosie Q: Quick loop around the parking lot to ensure no stragglers were arriving, finding none we proceeded with a warm up that included SSH’s, DQ’s, Imperial Walkers, Bob and Weaves (DK tribute), Tempo Merkins, Shoulder Taps, Peters Parkers, finishing with LBC’s. Mosey over to the bus loop for a quick Dora. Partner runs the loop. Exercises included 100 Decline Curb Merkins, 200 Squats, 300 SSH’s. Q is passed….
El Woods Q: Mosey past the virtual flag for a little taste of the New Glory. 5 Merkins at each light pole down to the access ramp. Bear Crawl 1/2 up the ramp, Lunge the remaining distance. This felt so nice, lets do it twice. Same thing for Round 2. Q is passed….
Last Call Q: Mosey over the dip benches. 50 dips OYO followed by tooth fairies up the stairs. BTTVF for a quick Mary that included Heels to Heaven, LBC’s, APD’s and Flutters. Numbers, Names, Announcements (see Upchuck WDog backblast for F3 events thru 2026). Gumbo took us out.
NMS: Not what Pax was expecting with Snuff on the Q sheet. Always nice to mix a hot potato Q into the rotation every so often. YHC voiced this opinion several times during the endless SSH’s and New Glory only to fall on deaf ears. Hopefully Snuff is safe and slumbering in the fartsack. Good mumble chatter as expected when Gumbo and Rosie get together. Great work this morning gents.
