- When: 06/23/15
- Pax: Transplant, Catfish, Smiley Face, Schrute, Bogey, Apache, Lucky Charms, Burgundy, Toro (FNG), Band Camp, Stang, Alpine, Dark Helmet (YHC), and one more whose name escapes me at the moment and I am terribly sorry about that. I had typed it in here, then erased the recording off my phone, then my browser locked up, and... well... Anyway, there was another guy.

The first thing you need to do the next time you post with Apache, is to get him to tell you the story of how Turkey Punching came to be… You will want to make sure you have at least 5 minutes to hear the story in its full glory, but trust me, it’s worth it…
Bogey brought an FNG to the party, so a full and clear disclaimer was given, and then it was off to The Thang:
First things first, we moseyed over to campus. If you’ve never been to Eagle’s Nest, go. It’s a fantastic AO with lots of variety. Good stuff there…
There is a long stretch with rectangle patterns and a big circle at one end and so I’m so inventive that we circled up… on the circle…
Warm up = 25 counts of squats, SSH (ludicrous speed), IWs, Windmills, Moroccan Nightclubs, and such.
Then we did 10 (15? I don’t remember…) burpees in cadence. Everyone LOVED that……. (is that sarcasm? Why yes, yes it is…)
Then for the next 100 yards down this long stretch with rectangles it was bear crawl to the end of one then 1 burpee, run to the next then 1 burpee and so on until the top of the steps. A quick 10 count and a long story about turkey punching from Apache and we were off again, this time down the steps to the amphitheater.
There it was run to the top of the amphitheater, tag the fence, run down, 5 burpees OYO, then repeat 3 times. As if that didn’t suck enough, rinse and repeat the whole thing again. Because, you know, who doesn’t love burpees?
Then we moseyed over to a loading dock area where we did some wall sits and some BTTW. Hold as long as you can, then take a lap around the big circle after you fall, come back and sit on the wall again to wait for the 6.
Mosey back over the steps we came down earlier. Partner up, size only matters a little. After I said that, though, there was a bit of mumble chatter, and then somehow Apache had bent Bogey over and… well… let’s just say that there was a need for some bombjacks at this point, so we all knocked out 10 of those… because it was definitely warranted, and… well… let’s just say that I can’t unsee that… Wow… Anyway, where was I? Ah yes, partner up at the steps.
Partner 1 takes partner 2’s legs and wheelbarrows to the top of the steps, run to the bottom and flapjack.
Then we run to the top of the steps together and 100 yd dash (sprint) it back to the circle where we started for a little Mary:
Some flutters, LBCs, protractors, and such round out our time together.
Mosey back for the COT.
Moleskin:
For the benefit of the FNG, we went over the 3Fs. Then we talked a little about why we use the shovel flag, and my belief that the .05F (just before the 1st F) is Freedom. That’s the whole reason we are able to do what we do.
Tclaps to Apache for committing to baptism and inspiring Schrute’s son to possibly do the same.
Good stuff this AM…
Helmet out…
Wow it’s been a year
Aye Apache
