12 gathered around the planted flag.  Italian Job led off and moseyed the PAX to the parking lot for a Patriot style warm up…

To the serene tune of birds chirping in the background:

• 20 SSH
• 20 Imperial Walkers
• 20 Moroccan Night Clubs
• Various stretches (L over R, R over L, Wide, Butterfly, a few others)

On to grab some wall and in the seated position tap the head, knees, and ground – 20 in cadence.

….the serenity began to fade.

Mosey (the long way) to the football field where entrance was gained one way or another. Don’t tell the law man (we trespassed).

Handoff to Peach

20 Minutes of Blackjack with Merkins and LBCs…50 yds in between (20 Merkins/1 LBC, 19 Merkins/2 LBC…all the way to 1 Merkin and 20 LBCs).

…serenity is now long gone. The humidity has caught up with us. Mumble chatter has ceased.

The PAX give a strong showing and once we are thoroughly drenched Peach passes to Geppetto.

Using the football field it was 4 corners

• Lunge 100 yds
• 25 Low Slow Squats at the corner
• Bear Crawl to the next
• 25 Mtn Climbers at the corner
• Side shuffle 100 yds to the next
• 25 Low Slow Squats at the corner
• Burpee Broad Jump to the next

4 corners again..this time with sprints in between.

• 25 Heels to heaven
• 30 Side Crunches (15 each side)
• 35 Flutters
• 50 LBCs

Back to the COT for count off, Name-o-Rama, Announcements (most of which were about various events where one is required to run long distances for no particular reason), and prayer requests.

Great day at the Patriot, and a perfect start to the weekend…serene or not.
