16 Pax braved what was supposed to be a rainy morning.  Many still sore from this weekend’s activities, including the USMC Mud Run and the Spartan races, but all embracing the gloom and ready to get after it.  After a weekend full of OCR festivities, YHC still had a little of that evil coursing through his veins and so off we went…

Mosey to the sign at WEP for some warm ups: 20 IW, 30 SSH, 10 WM, 20 Low Slow Squats, 10 Merkins.

The Thang

•  Mosey around the park to the drill bit on top of the hill and then down.
  1. Up the hill – 10 burpees
  2. Down the hill – 10 burpees
  3. Up the hill – 5 burpees
  4. Down the hill – 5 burpees
  5. Plank series until we get our six.

• Mosey to the parking lot
  1. 20 squats
  2. 20 merkins

• Mosey to the sitting area by the Anne Springs(?) building
  1. 10 step-ups each leg on the wall
  2. 10 dips on the wall
  3. 10 incline merkins
  4. 10 decline merkins

• Mosey to the wall across from Veteran’s park
  1. 10 up and over the wall (or 5 if you tackled the tall wall – 6-7 ft?)

• Mosey around the corner, up the stairs, down the stairs, up the Main St. hill, around the building and back to the new restaurant…where we have lost our wall.  OMAHA!

• Mosey down to the tracks.
  1. Plank on the railroad tracks and then 15 merkins…there was a lot of mumble chatter here as if the train would some how sneak up on us and we’d be mowed down mid-merkin.  However, all got through it.

• Mosey back to the wall across from Veteran’s park.
  1. Wall sit (for YHC’s internal 50 count)
  2. Balls to the Wall with 10 vertical push ups
  3. Wall sit (another internal 50 count)

• Mosey back to the playground
  1. 10 pull ups
  2. 15 dips
  3. 15 incline merkins
  4. 10 pull ups
  5. 15 dips
  6. 15 incline merkins
  7. 15 hanging knees to chest
  8. 25 LBCs
  9. 25 Freddy Mercury
  10. 20 CBLs
• At some point during the ab series, we heard the train rolling through…all Pax declined the call to quickly head back down to the tracks for more merkins…upon reflection, probably the right choice.  Although with this group, I think we might be a pick ’em against the train.

• Mosey back for COT by way of taking the big hill across from the playground and down that back slope.

Great showing by all involved and we managed to beat the rain and the train.  Announcements were made (check the newsletter) and prayers and praise were lifted up.  YHC took us out with the good word and much thanks for the ability to get out in the gloom with such a great group of men.  #ISI  #HIM
