I came across this backblast while trying to find something to say about Darth Visor’s passing. After reading it, I figured what better way to learn a small something about the man he was, than to “participate” in his VQ.
Other than not having an outhouse or a baseball field (we used road by the playground and the track), I kept the Weinke as close to the original as I could. It was surprisingly easy to tie the IR race.
After finishing, I let the PAX know who was responsible for the Q, and had some time left for ab lab.

We finished up with some good discussion and prayers for Darth Visor and his family.
Thanks Bones for the opportuNITY.

100- step ups
200- dips
300 – LBCs’
Whew 10 count needed.
Let’s mosey to the ole ball field for a slight twist on our old favorite IR. PAX you got’s to sprint….not jog when its your turn. So we turned up the heat with a little team race – IR around the ballpark. Losers get to enjoy OYO 15 Burpees.
Trojan takes early lead for left side, then Boomer hits high gear to pad the lead, Hickory Stick notches one for the right side, and someone hit the speed switch for Light Bulb and it looks like left side is going to “run away” with it BUT amazing speed from Nacho Libre, Sketchy, and Gears even things up by the time we pass home plate.
Strong Showing by both teams BUT WE TIE AND EVERYONES a LOSER.
15 burpees for all and all for the PAX
Outfield Fence for little Wall Squat to catch our breath.
Let’s Mosey to THE HILL
Merkin Ladder 10 down run up hill 9 at top back down 8 back to top 7…all the way to 1 MERKIN.
