3 showed up on cold and very windy morning. Forecasts promised cold, but wind was unexpected and in your face. Chum ran from GridIron AO to Starbucks and back by himself, making it about 4 miles. Polly and Q started at Starbucks, ran to GridIron AO, did GridIron. Q ran back to Starbucks by himself. Running back is way less fun.

47 and rainy
4 regulars showed up this dark and rainy morning. Interestingly, everyone thought that no one else is going to show up. But, show up they did! Ran to a parking deck. After a usual warm-up we did sevens. First round was hand-release Merkins and two-count Freddies, second round was Burpees and American Hammers. Ran to the lake, did three rounds of 20 Dips, 10 Derkins, and 20 Squats. Ran back to the flag. Finished with 20 pole smokers. Overall, ran 3.8 miles. Great job everyone.

30 and sunny
On a cold but sunny morning 7 Pax showed up ready to work. After the warm-up, we did modified beast: starting with 12 hand-release-merkins, going to 18 WWII, 24 squats, down to 6 burpees, 12 Freddie Mercuries, finishing with 18 hammers. After some running did three sets of People’s Chair 15 Air Press, 10 BTTW Hip Slaps, 15 Donkey Kix OYO. Some more running, three sets of 5 pull ups and 20 dips. Finished with ring of fire of merkings.
My sincere apologies for posting so late. May be some kind of record.

Cumulative beast
On a bright and sunny morning 6 Pax showed up. We missed a lot of regulars who ran marathons, were sick, or just missing-in-action. Roger Roger, following his commitment to bring three FNG in a week, brought one of his neighbors who was named Green Hornet.
Trying to impress FNG, after the warm-up, we did cumulative beast: starting with hand-release-merkins, then added WWII, squats, 2 count Freddie Mercuries, crab cakes, finishing strong with burpees. Not much time left, so we finished with circle of abbs each calling 20 favorites: heels to heaven, LBCs, mountain climbers, American hammers, WWII. Overall a good start for a day of fun.

Three amigos
3 enjoyed some running in the morning. We stopped for three rounds of 20 decline Merkings, 20 dips, and 20 LBCs. After that ran some more, stopping at a football field for a ladder of Burpees starting at one and ending at ten. Finished with more running.

It was 70 and sunny
Hard to believe, but it was 70 and sunny. 5 enjoyed the perfect weather by running cul-de-sacs and doing 10 hand-release Merkins, 20 WWII, and 30 SSH at each cul-de-sacs.

Half of burpee beast
10 Pax, all regulars. After a brief warm-up we moseyed over to football field and did the beast starting with Burpees, continuing with 2 count Freddie Mercuries, then Burpees again, 2 count Flutter Kicks, Burpees 3rd time, ending with Heels to Heaven.
To slow down Homer and to work on his Burpee form it was suggested that he do a Hand-release Burpee. He tried it, and it worked great! Though it did not stop him down completely.
After the beast we moseyed to Pull-up bars and did 11s rotating between Pull-ups and Step-ups. Then on to tennis court for Suicides. We finished with the Ring of Fire and American Hammers.
Great job everyone!
Thank you for suffering through my first Q.
