Ian Spawned Off A Sharknado As It Left Tega Cay

Leave a comment

WARMUP: Moraccian Nightclubs, Overhead Claps, Peter Parkers, Hill Billy Walkers, Cherry Pickers and Sumo Squats all in reps from 7 – 10.

THE THANG: Today seemed like a appropriate time to bring back out a workout that is a real ass kicker that I haven’t done in awhile. It’s called Sharknado. The running part is meant to be done in a relatively flat parking lot but since Alcatraz is where real men post I figured we needed to throw some Tega Cay hills in the mix. We started on a street in a neighborhood but after several dogs started barking at us running back and forth on the hill we decided to Omaha over to a even steeper hill with less houses. Here’s how Sharknado goes

Start with 10 burpees followed by a run up the hill and back.
Next 20 Hand Release Merkins run up and back
20 Big Boy Sit Ups run up and back
20 Monkey Humpers run up and back
20 Scorpion Dry Docks run up and back

Goal is try to make it through 5 rounds. 2 achieved 5 rounds the others completed 4 rounds and some change.
This workout sucks and will test even the fittest of Pax. Total of 2.5 miles of hills.

MARY: We returned to COT for 10 minutes of stretching which we found out Fishstix needs much more of in his life. There was much moaning and groaning for this segment of my Q.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Bourbon Tasting, Skeet Shoot and Golf Tournament are all coming up for D2D fundraiser.
COT: Prayers for some Pax injured while running Bourbon Chase this weekend and their safe return home. Prayers for Pax in Florida and others we don’t know that got devastated from Ian. Let us be a huge support for them.
Thanks again for the Q stick fellas. Time for a nap.

Thank you for the opportunity to Q, Bodywash. I was pleasantly surprised with the turnout and pretty decent weather. We had some great conversation, a few laughs, and learned that Head Spin is a flexible dude. YHC and Ruby Slippers kept our head’s down out of fear of falling face first onto the pavement, unlike Bodywash how has great balance. Grout continues to crush it, Esso continues to make it look easy, and Tapout continues to have more energy than all others combined.

While standing in the COT today, the wind began to pick up. I couldn’t help but think of God’s presence in that moment. Often in the Old Testament, the Spirit of God is described as “wind” or “breath” (the Hebrew word Ruach). God’s Ruach is the source of life. My prayer for you today is that you will feel His Spirit and will be moved to act accordingly. Stay safe as Ian takes aim on the Carolinas. Focus on your faith and family and find time to enjoy the Ruach as it manifests in your life.

Aye!
