With only 8 Pax and 2 2.0s in attendance at 9 am we did a little OYO stretching to give the soon to be in attendance Pax time to get there. After about 5 minutes I decided to have us mosey through the neighborhood. The purpose of the mosey was to warm us up but more importantly it gave us an opportunity to let the men and kids know that we were there and ready to workout. It worked….

As we moseyed Peabody’s 2.0, Jackson ran into a friend, All star ( AJ), along the run. It was awesome to see the connection of these kids and the fun they embarked on this Summer morning.

We finished the mosey up past the church and backed down to the water park – which was heavily shaded. There we circled up and …

• 25 SSH IC
• 15 Imperial Walkers IC
• 15 Hilly Billy Walkers IC
• 15 Mountain Climbers IC
• 15 Plank Jacks IC
• 15 Seal Jacks IC

After we finished up COP we moseyed over to the path that cuts through the park and found a sitting wall….there was no sitting but it was a great shaded spot for….

• 10 Jump Ups & Squats on the Wall
• 10 Single Leg up Squats and down
• 15 Dips
• 15 Incline Merkins
• Rinse And repeat

While were executing the above exercise, All Star was begging us for some basketball. So..without further ado we moseyed over to the basketball court. For a little added warm up we did the inch worm across the court prior to shooting around.

When we got to the courts a few more young men showed up and joined us. The shoot around…we all lined up and took turns hitting a shot. The thang…you missed your shot, take a quick lap around the court.  Not surprising, there was more running than shots made.

Post the shoot around, we teamed up in teams of four. We had the young men captain the team and pick their squads.  Surprising, Charles Barkley, better known as Optimus, was picked. I’m not sure what these kids were doing but their loss meant my team would have the big man.

We played two games up to 5.  JuJu’s team went 2.0 and he hit the game winning shot of a 4-4 tie to win 5-4 and secure the championship.

We finished up with a quick mosey around the courts and circled up around the cooler filled with waters, oranges and popsicles.

At name-a-roma we named two new little FNGs.  Mix Match, who is maybe 6 years old and was rocking everything that that mixed it up a bit…mix match socks with flip flops but hit more jump shots than his entire team in game 1 (true story).

Benjamins…short for Kelvin Benjamin of the panthers.

• Announcements:
• CAH tubing trip next week.

Prayers:

• Optimus buddy lost his engineering job. Prayers as he has two kids in college, one at a little known place called Stanford
• Marriages…all marriages for continued support among our pax but extended to friends and family.
