The Q sheet was open last night and since YHC has struggled to get out of bed early in recent weeks put his name down to ensure accountability. Running has been my theme of the past few months so why not subject the PAX to a couple miles of fun. Bullseye put in some early EC since he had to leave early, tapped out just in time to avoid the last 2 rounds of the beast.

Felt a little rusty on the opening but since we had all regulars we jumped right into it with some SSH and helicopters, that was enough warm up so we went to the track.

MEGA Beast was introduce a couple years ago and rarely comes out, kinda like Sally… Using the full track, 6 reps at the 100, 200 and 300m marks and around to the start before turning around and going back for 6 more at 300, 200, and 100, a full 1/2 mile for each round. Squats, Plank Jacks, Merkins, Monkey Humpers, WWII and Werkins. The PAX crushed it today and we had some extra time for some randorama on the fields. It is no NoToll but that is the best that Midlo Middle field has ever looked and felt.

Great work today gentlemen, almost 4 miles covered. Felt good to get back out and lead, thanks for indulging the run heavy workout. Good pace today set by Rosetta taking the outside lane for a few extra steps around the track. Don’t ask Doozy to do too many tile floors, that’s a little out of his lane for now.

July 4th Convergence – NoToll 6am – DTH and Hardywood are taking control

July 12th – NoToll Puppypile – DTH has the Q

YHC saw the open Q spot and after No Toll’s Doozy led Burpeefest I thought grab it to ensure no burpees. The clock struck 530 and the Pax was off.

Mosey to the front parking lot for COP. COP consisted of: SSH 20, DQ’s 10, Jazzercise 10, Helicopters 10, Arm circle 15 +Reverso. Merkins 15, Dollies 15, Rosalita’s 15. Mosey around back of school to track.

Each round consisted of 20 squats, 20 Merkins, 20 LBC’s then up stairs across top, down stairs, and back to starting point. We did 5 rounds. Then a triple check with same running route and squats/merkins. BTTF and YHC took us out.

Prayers to Honeymoon’s dad starting his road to good health. Prayers to YHC’s Mom who had skin cancer found and goes Monday for a thorough evaluation.

Convergence July 4th at No Toll. Hardy wood has the Q.

Pee Dee brought up how the trash trucks continue to roll into the schools on regular schedule and the HVAC systems continue to roar and we wondered if the county could be saving some tax money with no one in the schools. PeeDee may write a letter.

SOT has risen from the ashes of covid-19 and was, this morning, restored to its former glory with a PAX of 8! Seven PAX who didn’t get their fill of YHC yesterday joined him for day 2 of the final days of hate. Here’s what transpired:

It was a bit gross out there this morning and the PAX stayed dry in their vehicles until a little more before 5:29.

Mosey down to the track parking lot.

COP: SSHs, DQs, Russian Soldiers, Dead Man’s something

Hit the track for the Cooper in honor of Cooper the dog, who wasn’t really that interested in playing along today.

Run a lap, 10 burpees, 10 squats, 10 merkins

Run a lap, 9 burpees, 9 squats, 9 merkins

Repeato until 1 burpee, 1 squat, 1 merkin for a total of 2.5 miles, 55 burpees, squats, and merkins.

Mosey to the bleachers for

11s: Box jumps and WWIIs

BTTF for 5 burpees.

Numbers, names, announcements, DTH took us out.

Announcements:

-July 4th convergence at 6am at No Toll

-3rd F next Tuesday, June 23 on zoom (see Slack for details)

NMS:

The Cooper was a bit of a time suck but well worth the effort. The role of Fresh Prince was played by Doozy today who glided effortlessly around the track. He was definitely in his element. Up until today, YHC was under the impression that DTH was not a big fan of running….you wouldn’t know it as he also made light work of the 10 laps.

So glad to see bigger numbers back at SOT…Bullseye spent many weeks alone at this AO during quarantine.

For those wanting more, we still have the Forge and Twin Team to go.

Thanks for indulging me fellas! Peace!

3 men apparently in search of the suanas that are not part of current phase showed up to the gloom this morning. Unfortunately all they was found was a 70 degree and sunny beat down, hot potato style. According to the rabbits they scared away, here is how it went down:

Bullseye grabbed the tater first and started with a COP:

• 10 Don Quixote
• 10 Russian Soldier
• 3 sets of 10 SSH and 10 Merkin OYO
  

Mosey to stadium step for 11s:

• Inch Worm Merkins (or walk out merkins) at the bottom
• Jump Squats at the top

Then Tobit’s potato time for some ascending 4 corners at the tennis courts:

• 10 Merkins
• 10 Merkins, 20 2-count American Hammers
• 10 Merkins, 20 2-count American Hammers, 30 Jump Squats
• 10 Merkins, 20 2-count American Hammers, 30 Junp Squats, 40 Alabama Prom Dates

Lastly some Boberry flavored potato. Starting with a mosey down the hill to the concession area for a Triple Check:

• Partner 1: People’s Chair
• Partner 2: Incline Merkins on the curb
• Partner 3: Bernie up the hill and run back down

Little bit of time so we got about halfway through a Jacob’s Ladder, doing burpees at top and bottom of hill.

Numberama, Name-o-rama, Announcements (below), YHC took us out

Excellent 2nd F with you gents this morning! Good to catch up and share our experiences with the pandemic. Great morning despite breathing water instead of air.

3 SOT regulars or what used to be the regulars found themselves together at The Source to see what Doozy had on the books for today

Mosey to bus loop COP

DQ’s, Dead man Hangs, Helicopters, Cherry Pickers, Imperial Walkers, Russian Soldiers

Mosey to Door #1 Alternating doors – Merkins and Squats 33 doors total with 20 having an A and a B side. The number on the door is the number to do.

PAX liked it so much we cheerfully decided to do it again but with SSH’s and Plank Jacks instead

BTTF – Hold 6″ for a Ab ring of fire

Numbers / Names YHC took us out

NMS:

YHC has been taking Wednesdays off as a mid week break but I miss this AO because there are so many different things to do. You really don’t need a full cheat sheet to come up with ways to bring the pain to the beat down. I think I will start making SOT a regular stop again.

SOJ AOs have been light lately and YHC does not enjoy a solo workout. A text yesterday evening revealed that at least one other PAX would be at SOT this morning…and two is definitely better than one.

YHC arrived to find Bullseye getting in some extra credit. At 5:30, it’s just the two of us…hot potato it is…and we’re off. Here’s what went down.

Mosey to front of MMS.

Bullseye:

COP: Helicopters, Cherry Pickers, DQs, 3 sets of SSHs and Merkins

Find a bench and do 3 sets of dips (15, 20, 25) and wall sits.

Tobit:

Mosey to track.

Partner up. Partner 1 performs exercise while partner 2 runs around track to catch partner 1. Switch up.

Round 1: Bear crawl

Round 2: Crab walk

Round 3: Broad jump

Bullseye:

Mosey to steep(ish) hill at the track for some hill climbs. Run up hill and back and perform 2 merkins at bottom. Repeat (by 2) until reaching 10 merkins at bottom.

Tobit:

Mosey to MMS doors for:

Doors 1-5: Burpees

Doors 6-10: Jump squats

Doors 11-15: LBCs

That’s it!…mosey back to the parking lot.

Numbers, names, YHC took us out. No announcements.

A PAX of two can make all the difference. YHC is pretty sure he wouldn’t have done the same workout solo.

YHC prays that God’s peace will envelop us all and help relieve some of the anxiety during this stressful time.
