Leeroy Jenkins with a Side of Varsity Blues

Eight of eastern western Henrico’s finest dads gathered in the almost dry parking lot for the first 2022 iteration of First Watch. After some discussion about where Andy Jenks is and the various waldo sightings of him around town, we did a few laps in the parking lot before settling in the northeast corner for…

Plan for the day was a ground and pound so no one would slip and turn an ankle. The plan generally worked except for 1 turned ankle. Heal fast Pucker!

There were two rules today. First, we had to do burpees any time the east/west River Road stoplight was anything other than green. The second, which was an improv, was we had to run to the end of the parking lot and do 5 burpees anytime someone yelled Leeeeeeeeeeeeeeroy Jeeeeeeeeenkinnnnnnnns. Each PAX had one callout max and almost everyone participated. This was triggered due to the Andy Jenks mumblechatter pre-launch. Much to YHCs surprise NO ONE picked up the Leeroy Jenkins reference, so it is posted here for everyone’s enjoyment.

Thanks to Honeydo, I may casually watch Varsity Blues one night and see what happens.

See everyone in the gloom.
