Wheel of Gloom!!!

It was a little rainy but a lot windy for the Stockade debut of the Wheel of Gloom.

For those unfamiliar the wheel of gloom is each Pax taking turns spinning the Wheel. Each spot on the wheel denotes a workout with reps. Each rep is one point for the spinner… but all Pax do the exercises.

Exercises included burpees, Merkins, jump squats, LBCs, Freddy Mercury’s, Big Boys, among others.

The lighting round was a wheel of fortune type routine with correct letters earning points and wrong guesses resulting in LBCS.

Masterpiece solved the puzzle and racked up some big points.

Final round was a 1:00 minute Diamond Merkin Off between Masterpiece and Grassy Knoll.

Grassy won the final round and was given the chance to take a 4-pack of delicious White Claw OR choose what was in the box. Thankfully he chose the box and got a nice variety pack courtesy of Slapshots beer fridge. Masterpiece ended up with the Whiteclaw.

The point today was a decent workout with great fellowship. Thankful for those who showed. It was a fun time!

Until next time!
