20 and 12

WARMUP:
THE THANG: mosey to the church of god parking lot where the pax did a few Freddy mercuries while they waited for the six (me) to arrive.

From there we did the cross workout. Run out to one of four points and then back to the middle. Each time we arrived at a point, we did 20 flutters (count one leg only), and each time we arrived back to the center, we did 12 merkins. The four outer points were the parking lot at the top of the hill, the small lot across from the old police station, the lot at the top of Monroe white st where the old town hall (and the old phone company) is, and the intersection of confederate and Forrest st.

One wrinkle was coming back from the Forrest street point, we climbed the stairs of the church of god activity building and did 12 derkins with the aid of their picnic tables

Mileage requirements for the morning were exceeded
MARY:
ANNOUNCEMENTS: lots going on life of f3
COT: lots going on the life of the pax

Your MILGA is showing

What a wonderful day in the MILGAhood. This being my first visit and q to Colosseum, I aimed to disappoint. The workout was this

– poles on the back of the school. increase rep count by 1 at each pole then return to start. Burpee Merkin Squat is taking the fort by storm
– found the only set of accessible steps on the entire west side. The count was however many leaps it took to get to the top by each pax. Average was 3 leaps. Some folks (Bandcamp) were jackasses and took 9. First excersice was burpees, then after everyone went we did dips
– then went to the court for broadjumps as our rep count. average was 4. step ups was the excersice until all pax had jumped
– lunge walk and bear crawl back to cot for 5 minutes of mary

Yes, i made pretty much all of this up as we went. I like to live dangerously like that.

Work from the Bird:
We all need prayers. Its not selfish to ask someone to pray for you. Don’t think you always need to pray for someone else. That’s a great thing, but you need to be right also. Work on that vertical relationship. Gotta get you right so you can help others. I’m asking for prayers for me. Send me all the love you got right now and ask Gods help too. I challenge you all to be bold and pick someone in COT to pray for. Even if they don’t ask for it. I GUARANTEE it will make their entire day having that power.
