Legend has it, here is how the story goes: Johnny: “Timmy, did you hear what happened at recess today?” Timmy: “No, did Handshake get caught looking up girls skirts again?” Johnny: “Not that I know of… You know that older kid that complains a lot but tells those jokes he gets from GQ magazine?” Timmy: “TYA?” Johnny: “No, the other one he hangs out with…” Timmy: “You must be talking about that Saab kid. I heard he wants to buy a british car when he turns 16. My dad says there may be something wrong with that kid.” Johnny: “Yeah,…

11 strong rose to the challenge at Mary today. There was much mumble chatter on this topic of the number 11 quickly confirming the theme of the day. These go to 11 (or not). COP – mosey to front of school on Grove. SSHs, deadman’s hang, Don Quixotes, imperial walkers and helicopters to get us started. Mosey to the field and line up for….wait for it….11s! Apparently this 11s is new to the pax so I am happy to introduce a new exercise regimen to them. At each tree (of which there are 11), perform a set of one type…

YHC’s luck with rain seemed to have ended as it had started by the time we arrived at the AO. However it was light and while YHC had devised a plan to keep (mostly) dry, things would need to be modified mid workout. Here’s how it went down… Mosey around the school to the blacktop to warmup with dead man’s hang, Don Quixotes, arm circles, SSHs and Merkins. Mosey to covered pavilion which was unoccupied and the site for all of YHC’s original plan for the day. Partner up with P1 running to corner of Grove and Commonwealth and back,…

The warm up, yeah… well, should planed that a little… Mosey to the church parking lot. Work out based on a deck of cards with burpees, Lt. Dans, WW 2’s, mercan’s and running. It was kind of a mess up but I’m pretty sure we were all breathing heavy, and and I provided plenty of fodder for the peanut gallery! Mosey back for numbers and names. No announcements. In closing, look out for each other, sometimes a few minutes is all it takes and we never know what is happening on another person’s insides. Enjoy!

Eight or nine folks gathered at Mary for a legacy master Q. We ran over to the parking lot for COP then met on the track for something like this: The Thang Run a lap, then 10 merkins Run a lap, then 20 merkins Run a lap, then 30 merkins Run a lap, then 40 merkins Run a lap, then 50 merkins Then back down? The rules were concocted along the way and included: If you pass Q and his mate, you have to stop and do 10 burpees If you pass in the workout zone, no burpee penalty (don’t…
