Go The Extra Mile

Leave a comment

The runners took a familiar route to Harvest Pt and back. Ruckers traveled aimlessly around Baxter with good fellowship and conversation. The message this morning was do a little extra distant in support of Wegman's who is running the Boston Marathon. He has put in lots of early morning training runs leading up to this event. Lots of great HIMs have supported him along the way.
Special prayer this morning as he completes this goal.

Kingsley loop bigger than what I expected

Leave a comment

WARMUP: normal stuff plus dynamic movements
THE THANG: stair climbs plus wall sits. Move around the large loop stopping at corners for 15 merkins, 15 squats, 15 cdd, 1 alternating lunges, 20 lbcs. 5 stops. Sometimes it’s best to KISS the workout. Keep it simple you the the last S.

Masters Party at Dawn Patrol

Leave a comment

A tradition unlike any other…The Masters. This time of year is one of my favorites. The weather starts to turn warmer. The trees and flowers start to bloom. People start coming outside of their homes. And the NCAA tournament concludes right into my favorite sporting event of the year, the Masters. With this in mind, I thought I would prepare a Weinke inspired by the tournament. I borrowed some of this from Warning Track and others via reviewing their backblasts.

Weather – chilly 39 degrees at launch

Disclaimer given during lots of mumblechatter

COP
SSH x 30 – this is the standard
IW x 10
Cherry Picker x 10
CDD x 10
Mtn climber x 10

Mosey to the “tee box”

In honor of the Masters, we played the front 9 holes revealing the name of each hole, the yardage and par. Pax chose the club necessary for the shots based on the following criteria:

  • Woods including Driver – 10 merkins
  • Long Irons – 10 jump squats
  • Short Irons – 10 Big Boys

When arriving on the green, Pax were given the following options:

  • 2 Putt – # of burpees for par
  • Birdie – no burpees but must answer a trivia question correctly
  • Bogey – penalty if a trivia question was missed which equated to twice the amount of burpees

#1 Tea Olive – 495 yards Par 4
#2 Pink Dogwood – 575 yards Par 5
#3 Flowering Peach – 350 yards Par 4
#4 Flowering Crab Apple – 240 yards Par 3
#5 Magnolia – 495 Yards Par 4
#6 Juniper – 180 Yards Par 3
#7 Pampas – 450 Yards Par 4
#8 Yellow Jasmine – 570 Yards Par 5
#9 Carolina Cherry – 460 Yards Par 4

Had to cut it short after 8 holes but the Pax were even par with 3 birdies, 3 bogeys and 3 pars.

2026 QvQ Round 2

Leave a comment

QvQ Format:
20/20
PAX Vote in 4 categories
V.A.P.E.

Rabbit:
Divide into two teams

Every man runs 25m and nurs 25 back and the completes 2 squat jumps and 2 burpees.
WWR but add 2 reps to each exercise after each trip out and back. Team with the most reps in total wins.

In addition, each team selects 2 pax to hold Cindy’s above head … Cindy can't drop below the head… if they do the team loses their count and starts over at zero

15 minutes of work.

After time expires, Hold AlGore and plank while the preacher preaches about asking for help and looking for a brother that might need it. (Let's do this for each other men!)

Last 4 minutes jail break 50m and do 5 Big Boys… again but do 10… keep adding 5 and sprinting until time expired.

Stage Coach:
Partner work
Partner 1 will run to the other side of the field and back to partner 2. Partner 2 will be doing an exercise that slowly progresses across the field until Partner 1 returns and switch. Continue switching off between running and exercises until you’re across the field.
Exercises – Bear Crawl, lunge, broad jump burpee, crawl bear and reverse lunge

Results:
Stage Coach won two categories, but Rabbit also won two and had the most overall votes. Win goes to Rabbit.

Great work by both Qs sharpening their leadership today.

ZigZag Cones – CSPAN Style

Leave a comment

WARMUP:
Super-G had the warmup. Quick mosey to one of the many lots at Dawn Patrol. Some SSH, merkins, Moroccan nightclubs, windmills, and maybe a few others, this old man can't remember.

THE THANG:
Pax partnered up, so doesn't matter. Mosey to a back-corner of a parking lot where cones were set up for pax to run through. The plan was, partner 1 does a moving exercise through the cones while partner 2 did a stationary exercise, then flap-jack. First part of the cone course was a nur. Exercises were:

  1. LBCs –> lunges
  2. American Hammer–>bunny hops
  3. Peter Parkers –> karaoke
  4. Hello Dollys –> backwards lunges
  5. Flutters –> toy soliders
  6. Imperial Walkers–> broad jumps
  7. Bombjacks —> shuffle
  8. Low Plank –> butt kickers (2x)
  9. Wheezy Jefferson –> high knees (2x)
  10. Box Cutters –> bear crawls
