Several guys got to the Yard early to do some pre-running and pre-rucking. Finally at start time 15 PAX gathered up. We moseyed (rambled?) to the back of the school for warm-up: SSH-20, Hillbilly Walkers-15, Windmills-10, Merkins-10, & Shoulder Taps-10. PAX were starting to get loose and the mumble-chatter was in full swing. Next we moseyed out to the entrance to the schools and used the hill. 4 minutes of leg work. Start at the top, run down about 2 light posts, then run back up backwards. Repeat for 4 minutes or until your quads say stop.

Next we went back in front of the middle school for some core work. I was at a workout earlier in the week with Double D and his theme of core strength stayed with me. I think its important to realize how important core strength is: physically, mentally, and spiritually. Life will be difficult from time to time. But your core strengths will help you get through those difficulties. With that, it was time for dirty McDuece of core work.

Good work by all the PAX. Now it was time to play some games.

We made our way over to the 4 basketball hoops in the middle of the Yard. We split up into 2 groups on opposite goals. First game was each PAX had to shoot a free-throw. Made=5 Merkins, Miss=10 Merkins, Airball=15 Merkins. After you shoot and do the Merkins you run around the outside to the other goal. SSHs while waiting in line. As you can guess from the title, there was some bad shots. I mean really ugly like never heard of the game of basketball shots. It made for great mumble-chatter.

After a few rounds of that we moved to the next game. Person with the ball had to make a layup on the near basket, run to the far basket for another layup, and then back to original basket for final layup. Next person in line called an exercise for the remaining PAX to do while also making fun of the guy airballing the layups. All kinds of excuses were given: gloves threw me off, my knee, my spleen, etc. So after some good laughs and Gilmore proving that he can fog out a large outdoor space we moseyed back to COT.

I hope everyone had some fun with the games. It was a great group of PAX who could dish it out as well as laugh at themselves. As always it was an honor to lead.
