QIC: Ant Man

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

MOLESKIN:
YHC changed up the route a little bit to spice things up. We found that the path and bridge to the police station was completed so we across there. Hannigan seemed to get a little nervous about some outstanding warrants so we had to turn back. We also found a nice little path up the side of flag pole hill after walking through the brush a little bit, I suspect that will be an AO in the near future. The weather forecast for this week is about as good as it gets, get those workouts in before it starts to rain this weekend.

Great crew of 7 PAX gathered for #MuttRuckMonday in ideal weather. We learned the following:
…side straddle hops with rucks isn’t a great idea
…Pepper likes rucking so he can hang at the back in silence until he’s ready to speak
…not all hills are created equal
…the PAX don’t like the idea of jogging with rucks

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
1. F3 Ryder Cup starts 9/24. Stay tuned to Band for the draft over the next couple days.

COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA:
PAX: Ant Man, Coach K, Stakeout (F3 San Antonio)
QIC: Teasip

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
YHC prayed us out

MOLESKIN:
A small crowd this Friday for some great weather. Not sure if everyone knew the burpee lap was coming or a bunch of men just were feeling extra lazy this morning. After the “unround” number of ISTs and a lot of complaining from Coach K, YHC decided to keep the unround number going (tho DORA was sadly overlooked in that regard). A slight Omaha on the tennis court as there was a fence with a narrow opening that separated the two courts, so it took YHC a minute to get the paint the lines right and decided to just do down and back across one tennis court for Del Brown. The PAX was very unhappy about the burpee lap and tried to convince Stakeout to use his War Daddy veto on said exercise, but to no avail. YHC may Omaha that exercise to only do part of the lap or will do it earlier in the workout to ensure a full lap is done (the PAX made it about 200-250 M, which Coach K was quick to point out is the furthest point from the parking lot). Ant Man announced he has a perfect week going, and is planning on posting at F3 Houston to finish the perfect week. Stayed tuned to see if he does. Overall, another great day to workout with these guys and happy to have Stakeout in this morning.

NMM
Teasip got us going with ye ole faithful warm up before moseying to the tennis courts for the third week of the Iron PAX competition.

YHC decided to sit this one out to keep time and make sure everyone knew what was going on. Despite being met with resistance on this and being assured that the PAX knew what was going on, YHC answered questions for several minutes of the workout. Splash called YHC out for being particular cranky this morning, which, to be fair, was accurate.

After an interesting initial song choice, Icebox came through with the solid country workout playlist.

Not too much mumblechatter except for some comments about the toughness of 50 straight hand release merkins. Special Sauce wished good luck to the rest of us doing the workout the rest of the week and mentioned some live streams on band for integrity/accuracy purposes.

Unfortunately there was little time for anyone to catch up with our fellow PAX from Louisville, though we were grateful to have him join us.
