It was a wet 70 and sunny on the grounds at Rockwood Park. But that didn’t stop the Magnificent Seven from putting in the work at the last Rocknroll of 2024. Even an FNG! According to the squirrel that seemed to be mocking us, here’s what happened.
Warmarama
Mosey to the basketball court for the standard warmarama with the disclaimer for the FNG.
Side Straddle Hops
Ukrainian Soldiers
Imperial Walkers
Don Quyotes
Down to Plank for Mission, Credo, and Core Principles. Mosey back to YHC’s truck, where an F3 Cindy was conveniently placed for
The Thang
Each PAX gets to do 10 Thrusters while all other PAX holds Plank.
Mosey over to the pavilion on the nature trail for a pair of triple checks.

X Factor situps
Picnic bench step ups

Time
YHC promised to keep the PAX somewhat dry as long as they could hold Plank, and the PAX managed to live up to their end of the bargain.
This week YHC reached 100 Qs for the year. Truly a blessing to be able to lead other men, and I encourage you to do so if you haven’t.
Ponch said he was bringing an FNG the night before, but I have to admit I was pretty skeptical, considering the weather. But Ponch came through and gave it away! That’s what it’s all about! Welcome to Carerra!
