12 able bodied men, 11 regulars and an FNG (welcome Jelly Roll) came out looking for a workout, maybe even a beat down. For some reason, at times some of the regulars were not happy with aspects of my workout. As people get older, they complain more often. COP: DQs, DMH, merkins, mountain climbers (the ones that went to Circus noticed similarities between that COP and this one), FMs (flatulence makers) and Arm circles. Mosey to curb next to main football field. Curb crawls with 2 WWIIs added per merkin. Jelly Roll found it challenging but was a good sport.…

Eleven of the faithful and one FNG (White Beaver) posted at GridIron early on a Saturday morning. Both the undersigned and Tater claimed to have reserved the Q, but Tater yielded to the undersigned. That decision would prove to be tragic. The undersigned took the Q and started the PAX out with a typical warmup COP (merkins, don quiotes, LBCs, etc.) The undersigned then declared that there would some Frank’s ball (kickball), confident that Polly’s injury at the prior round of Frank’s ball was just a fluke. It was requested that Frank’s ball be played on the Astro Turf field…

Oyster, quiet, with a pensive gaze,Lighthouse, bright, through the morning haze.And Johnsonville, both…

15 men posted this cold Dec morning for a little bit of cardio, abs, and arms…but we skipped the frozen tundra of Grid Iron for the comfortable turf field. Started off with one partner doing Lunges across the 120 yard field, while the other partner jogs to the end and back and meets original partner doing lunges. Switch partner and complete until you reach the end. On the way back it was partner Marching Ukrainian Soldiers across the field. Then partner Bear Crawls to end of the field, followed by partner Crawl Bear and Bernie Sanders. Break. Then 10 Merkins…

Switch when pacer completes. the construction fencing threw me off but we figured…
