Mosey to cars, circle up…numberama, namearama….introducing FNG with Ohio roots, a teacher at Deep Run and resident of DA VILLE….Mr. Dan Dickey who is now forever known as DREW CAREY. Q took it out…

Good Conversations all around as Mr. Holland and Drew Carey were able to confirm as Henrico County Teachers and we learned a bit about this and that as the rumbling herd went from task to task.

Good luck to all who are participating in Spit’s run-a-thon thingy tomorrow.

How it went down:

Q rolled up to find Mudface all alone.

Mini-shovel/Mini-Flag planted and red bricks stationed around it as Yardsale and Trout rolled in. 

Mosey around inner court of school.

Circle of Pain:     SSH x 10 (4 count)

                              Arm Circles 10 big, 5 small

                              Reverso

                              LBCs x 20 (4 count)

                              Merkins 20 (4 count)

                              American Hammers 20 (4 count)

                              Merkins 15 (single count from here on)

                              American Hammers 15

                              Merkins 10

                              American Hammers 10

                              Merkins 20

                              American Hammers 20

Mosey to mini shovel flag, grab two red bricks, one for each hand…at this point bricks had to stay in your hand.  If dropped at all, then someone had to yell, “Charlie Brown, you Blockhead!” and corporate punishment with 10 push-ups for each offense.

Mosey to track

                              20 Air squats with bricks held way out front

                              1 lap around track

                              20 Air squats with bricks held way out front

                              1 lap around track

                              20 Air squats with bricks held close front

                              1 lap around track

Mosey to monkey bars, partner up, one person holds others bricks while each partner gets in bar rows (old man pull-ups, whatever you call them.)

Mosey to field (everyone still hadn’t dropped a brick yet)

                              40 yard bear crawl with bricks in hands

                              40 yard crab walk backwards with bricks in hands

                              20 x SSH with bricks in hands

                              5 yard brick bear crawl

                              5 yard brick crab walk backwards

                              10 x SSH with bricks in hands

At this point Mudface decided to punish all of us and so he PURPOSEFULLY dropped his bricks, “Charlie Brown, you Blockhead!!”  10 x Merkins

Mosey to minishovelflag. Name-a-rama, Number-rama,  Annoucements:  Mudface informed Yardsale and Trout what Circus Maximus is and that he plans to attend soon, trying to get all to attend.

Q took it out.

All seemed to be in good spirits, Yardsale talking collegiate sports (anyone surprised?), Trout flexing on the Q as he walked out his car, rolling up and putting his shirt on in order to not intimidate us too badly and Mudface looking like a happy Garden Gnome today instead of an angry one!

17 Hardcorp Creeksters met at the Church for the Beatdown.  It must be cold in the mornings because everyone arrived within 4 minutes of the start time!

The Pain was brought in the following fashion:

Mosey 2 laps around the Church to COP

COP:

10 arm circles small, 5 big  (all three count) reverso

20 (3 count) Hillbillys that Q accidentally called imperial walkers.

20 (3 count) Imperial walkers that the Q properly called imperial walkers

20 (3 count) LBCs

Mosey 2 more laps around church.

Broken Wheelbarrows, each Creekster had to do 2 lengths from lightpost to lightpost in both barrow and pusher position.

Hold plank until all done with BW’s

20 (3 count) Carolina Drydocks

DORA OF DEATH:  100 burpees, 200 crabcakes, 300 dwight howards.

We had to stop at 0613 hours because we just couldn’t make it all fit except maybe OPUS and his Partner…who was that?  Teaparty?  So we had to get back to the Shovel Flag, numberama 17!!! and namarama…..announcements…. I forgot, so if you remember, put ’em in the comments please.  The Carpenter took us out with prayer.

Sorry, we couldn’t extend gentlemen, I had Guantanamo and Fire Drill planned but we just didn’t get to them!!!  Next Time!  Everyone worked hard….good to see people sweating in the cold!!!!

Thanks for letting me Q again.

 

Ohh ohh, like a surgeon…  (anyone alive remember Weird Al’s parody of ‘Like a Virgin”?)  Well, it was my VQ and I tried to see if THE CREEK would die on me…

It didn’t die…in the Halloween spirit, they walked around after like the undead though….kinda staggered….

The workout went like this

SLAUGHTER STARTER: 20 burpees OYO

Mosey:  2 laps around the church, wait in plank

Plank:  right hand up for 30 seconds, left hand up for 30, arm through right, 30 sec., left arm through, 30 sec.

Cop:  10 x arm circles, 15 x 3count merkins, 20 baby situps, 20 side straddle hops, 20 hillbillys, 20 imperial walkers, 10 don quixotes

Plank:  right hand up for 30 seconds, left hand up for 30, arm through right, 30 sec., left arm through, 30 sec.

Global warming:  get into Al Gore in giant circle, circle left.  Q calls 3 count merkins (quantity 10), finish, get up into Al Gore, circle left (we should have circled right), Q calls 3 count side straddle hops.  started circling left again, Q got bored so,

Mosey over to field where there were 2 cylum sticks set up:  everyone paired up and did 4 broken wheelbarrows per individual and waited in plank til all were done.  This one was a buster…we took awhile but THE CREEK rocked it out!!!!  Cylum sticks moved closer to each other once the Q realized that they were ambitiously distanced to begin with.

Indian run around the field, with the last man slowing down at the front in order to keep us together, we did this for about 5 minutes then moseyed back to the cylum sticks.

After the indian run each pax had to carry their partner to the opposite cylum stick four times.  This promptly became piggy back for some of us!!! Everyone got their partner across 4 times though and that’s whats up!

Fairly sweaty at this point, mosey back to shovel flag for cop of 10 x arm circles and I think we did some don quixotes as well.  Numberama, Namearama and then circle of trust with announcements…Reesestrong NEXT SEPT…I think Quaker said that!!!  And prayer with special thanks for our 2.0s….and gone…..POOOF!

Thanks for being so gentle for my first time CREEK!!

SIGNING OFF FOR MY VQ,
