  • Way too early takeover

    Gypsy did not audit my clown car meeting time and so we arrived 20 minutes early. I also parked us in the wrong lot. But that allowed me to scout a little and find out that the football field is closed and the hill has not been mowed in a month. No Die Hard for these Southside warriors.

    We warmed up in the upper lot behind the school with some SSH, IW, Ukrainian Hammers, LBCs and Merkins. Then we went down the stairs and ran around the track to the baseball field.

    We spread out to each base with home being a ten burpee timer, with exercises at each base. Exercises includes Squats, LBCs, Flutters and then the second round had HRM, WWII & Hammers.

    The extra big outfield was in good shape so we used the light poles and did a quarter pounder with 25 merkins, 50 squats, 75 single count mountain climbers and 100 SSH. Bernie’s back after each.

    I decided against a double (there was rejoicing) and we went back to the track and the stairs up. We then headed to the tennis courts.

    After a round of line tracers, we did two rounds of 4 corners: 10 merkins, 20 squats, 30 Lbcs, & 40 smurf jacks. Second round was something like HRM, Hammers, jump squats & SSH.

    We went back to the start and found the runners for COT. Great to meet many of you and thanks for letting me lead. Westhoe takeover all week. Can I find a good hill for Diehard???

    Homegrown Half/10K/5K this Saturday. Sign up for the Pickleball tournament and if you want a 10yr Anniversary shirt of hat, get your order in today!

  • Boy…that’s some steamy wetness

    5 HIMs stepped into the extreme mugginess of Wednesday morning for a tag team Q. The Q sheet has for SOT has been a little light lately. Must be those ruck workouts that Sable and team pull together.

    Warmarama – Bunch of stuff. SSH, Merkins, Jazzercize (slow mo), Ukrainian soldiers, LBC’s, Helicopters, etc.

    Mozey to the track for 100’s. Round 1: 5 rounds, 20 reps for each exercise. After the set was completed run 100 yards. Each PAX member called out an exercise.

    Round 2: 10 rounds, 10 reps for each exercise. After the set is completed run 100 yards. Each PAX member called out an exercise.

    Turn the Q over to DK for a little Tabata/Chabata time – dips and step ups were on the menu.

    Back to the flag pausing for some solid monkey humper action as the runners circled back to the flag.

    Numberama / Namearama with YHC taking us out.

    Mosey BTTF for COT:

    • Counterama # 7 (with Doozy 8)
    • Namerama
    • Announcerama (see Below)
    • YHC took the PAX out in Prayer

    NMS:  YHC has been burned with solo-Q’s at SOT in the past, so it was great to have a solid mix of SOJ’ers and one HIM from Ohio for this Summer Tour beatdown. Efforts were made to convince Doozy to join us and make it a perfect 8-PAX but he wasn’t havin it. BAMF that he is, Herme pushed through the pain for his third beatdown in 24hr having attended a Men’s Alliance last night. YHC has heard mixed reviews on the duration, if not also the depth of difficulty, on the MA workouts, but Herme testifies the push with coupons for 30min deserves a nod. Maybe someday when the timeframe doesn’t completely conflict with family time, I’ll try it out. Great to have AOL join us and proclaim the brutality of RVA beatdowns (he attended a Pigskin whoopin at Howdown as well). Keep posting fellas! Yours AYE! ~DTH

    Announcements (SEE SLACK!)

    Prayer Requests:

    rolled up some men ready to hit it hard. Q snuck in a VQ under the radar and only had to entertain a few boot campers. Runners took off.

    COP mosey to a parking lot tracer up and back, ssh, merkins, helos with no cadence and we were off to the door WO

    THANG

    number on the door dictated exercise. Went like this – burpees, merkins, squats, LBC, CDD, WW2, and so on. Picked up a FNG 1/2 way. We Finished in record time. Moved on to a dora with merkins, squats, lbc. Finished with a long mosey across the lot and back to the flag. The FNG (who is in his 70’s mind you) took off like lightening leaving PAX in the dust. Q knew immediately his name was to be Rabbit. Hermey attempted to catch the rabbit but looked like a turtle. Mary was performed per usual until time.

    COT

    Numberama, namearama, welcome to Rabbit, announmt, prayer request, big Herm took us out.

    Deuces.
