  • Century club

    10 studs arose from their fartsack to take on the gloom. YHC Was excited for today, it was YHC’s 100th post of the year. 100 would be a theme. Time struck 530 and headlights were coming. An FNG was rolling in and late at that. Mosey to front parking lot for COP. FNG was a Boberry add and he came in ready for the gloom. FNG became “Tebow” due to his like of the Gators. He is a pastor, father, husband and has lived in the area his whole life. Welcome Tebow. According to the trash truck driver here is what went down.

    COP- SSH’s, DQ’s, Imperial walkers, Helicopters, arm circles, Merkins, LBC’s, and likely a few others. Mosey to the tables of pain. Pax asked why we were not doing 100, YHC did not want to 4 count that high.

    On picnic tables do 100 incline merkins, 100 decline merkins, 100 dips and 100 squats. This was much harder than it appeared on paper according to Wilson. Mosey to track. First person to 100 calls it and PAX runs a half lap. Exercises were SSH’s, LBC, Flutters, Dollies, Rosalita’s, Merkins, Jump squats. Mosey to tennis courts for a 2 court sprint.
