Presidential Fitness Test

0

On a nice 60 some degree day, I thought now that school is back in session, let’s try a modified version of the Presidential Fitness Test. I think it was met with mixed reviews but that is cool.

COP: DQ, DMH, Merkins, FMs and ACs.

Mosey to track. First part of the Fitness test – 1 mile run. Results ranged from 7:15 to 8:40, not bad.

Mosey to near typical field which had work done. 1 minute all of the sit ups you can do. Johnsonville knocked it out of the park with 65 sit ups!

Mosey to playground and do all the merkins you can in one minute. I think someone was able to get to 60. We are not such an old group after all.

Mosey to Strykers parking lot and do modified shuttle run. For those that participated, Fireman Ed was the slow one. He su%ks.

Mosey to chin up bar. Do as many chin ups as you can in one set. I did nine; I think a couple hit 12. Nie work again. Back to playground we go.

In honor of the first responders on 9/11 who climbed 110 floor at the WTC, we did a Dora with 110 2 count MCs, 220 squats and 330 SSHs. The other person ran to the second truck, did a burpee and then ran back.

We finished with American Hammers, flutter kicks, heels to heaven, a round of Mary and some stretching. We then prayed for all those suffering from health issues including Gyspy’s sister. Convergence in 2 weeks at Gridiron at 7:30 a.m. and the “retreat” is after Convergence. Hopefully BRR went well for all participants. Praise for a so far successful neck surgery for my M, Firewoman Kate.

Enjoy your weekend. Remember those that lost their lives on 9/11.
