2025.37 Slow Burn

TBH All I knew I wanted to do was 10 sets of burpees and bear crawls. Each bear crawl was 40 yds and burpees started at 10 and went to 1. In between sets run toward Shutterfly and find the next opportunity to find 40 yds of unoccupied pavement.

I have a heavy heart now and it wasn’t any better at the time. The fact that flags were there flying at half mast in front of Shutterfly was a good reminder of who we are and what needs to happen next from an immediate and existential standpoint, so we recited the Pledge of Allegiance.

I’m currently reading Plato’s writing on Socrates and the present parallels are not lost on me. A man was executed for “impiety” and “corrupting the youth”. He asked questions. He didn’t properly attend to the gods. He challenged authority.

The bottom line is that we need both political parties. Without challenge, a uniparty would become weak and invalid. I would say we need more, but I digress. We should all be praying for the prosperity of both political parties to the betterment of the individuals they serve.

God forgive us, for we know not what we do.

Alcatraz OG’s

Warmup with a short mosey, windmills, imperial walkers, merkins, plank stretches, and then off to the hill.

Modified Dora: using the top half of the hill.

  • Half the group does big boy sit-ups, half the group runs a lap. Flip flop.
  • Round 2:  Flutters for two laps.  Flip flop.
  • Round 3: LBC’s for three laps.  Flip flop.

A few rounds of step ups on the backstop benches, with a set of dips and a set of decline merkins.

Over to the wall where we had the opportunity to sit against the wall while taking turns critiquing both technique and form during individual bear crawls.

Q swap, and Jekyll took us straight to the Wheel-o-pain.  Credit and respect to Funhouse!
Everyone completed at least two full rounds of the wheel performing exercises at each spoke, lunge or bear crawls to the hub,  for 5 burpees and mosey tot he next spoke.  #brutal.

Thanks @Masterpiece for the opportunity to lead.

Praise for all of our blessings, including this community of men. Prayers for marriages, those sick, injured, or struggling, and those supporting them.
