6 Stallions and 1 Gerry descended upon Mary just to be taken elsewhere. This is what transpired more or less…

Warmup: Helicopters, DM-Hang, SSH (YHC does them correctly for a change). Run to Windsor Farms: Red Barshetta (exercise not the song), mosey, WWII, mosey, flutter kicks, mosey, Lindsay Lights (increment/decrement by 10…box cutters and Merkins across church field. Continue mosey. Bear crawls, crab walks, polar bears, and intermittent stops for various exercises. Back to field: Tree Suicides doing alternating merkins and WWIIs on the out and back. Finish with a couple rounds of donkey kicks/bear crawls, run our and bernie-back.

NMS:

A question was posed by TYA: Are woman referred to as chicks because they produce eggs?….or because they prefer cocks?

14 friendlies and one shape-shifter showed for a display of feats-of-strength and an airing-of-grievances, of which there were many. This is what transpired more or less…

Deadman Hang, Merkins, Scorpion Kicks (much maligned), Ball-Lickers (Fan Favorite). Dips and Merkins/Derkins, station to station, 4 iterations. Descending Doras (LBCs, Flutter Kicks, Merkins) with run/bernie across courts. Chicken Peckers, B-Crawls, run out and back (3 iterations). Courts: Bear Crawl, Crawl Bear, Crabwalk, Polar Bear, then classic suicides. Feats of strength: Pax performs exercise while member does pull ups.

Announcements/NMS:

• Bodos’ house guest could not reconcile the concept of attending a pre-dawn workout in sub-freezing temperatures
• TYA took the Q repeatedly during YHC supposed lapses…said-person told repeatedly what he could do with himself
• Gomer made a brief appearance before disappearing into the ether…
• Look for those Festivus Miracles wherever they may occur

A lucky 11 descended upon Mary to see what the resident geriatric had in store. This is what transpired more or less:

COP: various stretches, HR Merkins, Ball-lickers. Pavillion: Partner does flutter kicks/Dollies while other runs out and back. Mosey to asphalt and hold 6 inches while Q tells poorly received joke at the same time an FNG joins our group. Do 3 rounds of donkey kicks, bear crawls, merkins, then run out and Bernie-back. Start at increments of 10 and finish at 30. Two Stations: Derkins and Dips. Perform 10/15 at each until visiting each 3 times. Run to courts: Bear Crawls, Crawl Bears, Crab Walks, Polar Bears. Classic suicides covering all 4 courts. Finish with a few minutes of Mary.

NMS:

Nice to have an FNG join us in the midst of the workout. YHC’s timing of telling an offense joke at the same time our visitor arrived was impeccible. Unfortunately the name given (Radar) was already taken so the Q will rely on feedback in this BB and pick the final.

Welcome Packing Peanut…named for his work on eco-friendly package-filler

Announcements: Beer Mile (see Handshake or Faceplant…the two are the same to me). Blood Donation: Please see Pigskin. Bear Creek 10 Mile.

6 men and two Gerrys descended upon Mary to make the best of her landscape. This is what transpired, more or less

Quasi warmup which included a round of ball-lickers. Lots of out and back running on the courts with copious exercises in between. Partner Doras that weren’t really partner Doras, more running while mixing dips and derkins in between, then chicken peckers, more polar bears, and running. Finish with a few minutes of Mary (abs)….(did I mention there was a lot of running….)

NMS: Ball-lickers were a hit although it appears more practice and dexterity are needed. Bodos aptly pointed out that “there is no I in Team”….can’t argue with that analysis. Speaking of Bodos he is looking to add another female to his nest which will make it 6. Much respect Bodos, you are a kind, giving, and accepting fellow…attributes we should all be aspiring to every day.
