MOLESKIN:
YHC went across the tracks to the West Side to Q at Germany and complete the first part of his #icicle. The first guy to show up was Pop Up, who got the name in St. Louis since he said he liked to read and the PAX assumed he read pop up books. Loved having him. Lives in Bellevue, but is here now with his wife since they had a kid a few months ago, her family lives here, and he can work remotely. Will be curious to see if it takes others (*cough* Ultra *cough*) three months to post after having a baby.

No Bleep this morning, which Slushii mentioned his text to Bleep in the morning was green and not iMessage blue so maybe his phone didn’t charge? Slushii debated knocking on his door, but decided not to. Rump was kind enough to keep the caravan going by letting Slushii still chauffeur him to the workout this morning.

YHC has decided that Sex Panther meant he would skip 200 workouts instead of attend 200 when he posted his goal of 200 for the year, so he is on a good pace for that.

Had some airplane talk during the warmup, including Sound Machine recounting a flight where he was asked to grab a ladies leg if the plane were to crash, and Rump remembering a time when a fellow passenger got a garbage bag for a barf bag. Otherwise, not a lot of mumblechatter during the workout, though got a few choice words from Rump doing the last part of the McDeuce and during the LBs lap.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
1. 4x4x24 CSAUP Feb 5-6

YHC has been getting shade all week from Oatmeal about our slow start last Thursday and wondering if we were just going to mosey to Starbucks today and make it an F2 event – Hence today’s theme. The post beat-down Coffeeteria turned into a 30 minute F2 event with 7 of the PAX not only welcoming Big Tex as an official Westsider #westside but also intently listening to sound machine impart his wisdom to the PAX. Lot’s of fun today and the camaraderie is very strong in this group. Thanks men for the hard effort today!

MOLESKIN:

The PAX enjoyed a fine morning of cool air and camaraderie. Mother Nature was kind enough to ensure the field was both cold and damp. The PAX was spread out for most exercises, keeping chatter to the minimum apart from recognition of who had gloves and who didn’t; who had waterproofing and who didn’t. (YHC recommends REI given the selection and generous return policy.) There was, however, a fair bit of singing along to some of our favorite selections from the 80s with the Beastie Boys being a particular standout. PAX did pioneer (or revisit) some lesser-used exercises including the Moroccan Nightclub and Cusack (which we performed, appropriately, to Peter Gabriel’s, “In Your Eyes”). Sadly, the Dragonwalk was cut for time.

MOLESKIN:
YHC had twice the workout planned but didn’t know the DORA would take so much time. Keeping the PAX all on the tennis courts led to some great #mumblechatter . After Bleep and Rump Roast stopped harassing each other there were some good one-liners that were picked up. There was some talk about Bleep telling AlrightAlright he didn’t want to hear his $h;! which always makes for a good laugh. Rump Roast said to Bleep while running figure 8’s – “the corners are square Bleep , not round” – which made YHC laugh pretty hard. Quite a few barking spider turbo boosters coming from a few PAX. Our newest west side PAX has a pet monkey. After the workout the PAX agreed sound machine was in a negotiation with @bubbles to procure.

MOLESKIN:
Yesterday YHC made mentions of the inclement weather situation we were going to face this morning. Much to my surprise there was no rain but was still cold and wet. The conditions remind YHC of what I expect on every duck hunt. A typical duck hunting saying for inclement weather is “misery brings company”. YHC was hoping this rang true with the PAX this morning. Turnout was 11 for this non ideal weather day. The playlist consisted of a 10 nostalgic songs YHC has enjoyed over the years with a few sprinkled in to pay homage for Alright Alright (The Outfield and Akon). In true wannabe DJ Icebox fashion YHC picked songs from different genre’s – more of a Now 2001-2010 edition.

YHC prayed us out

Coffeeteria followed for those that wanted the fellowship.

MOLESKIN:
Lots of mumble chatter to begin the workout.  Once again, at least three PAX were hood sliding into the warm up at just past 5:30 so YHC doled out 10 penalty burpees (3/late PAX rounded up).  Lots of chatter/questions/delay as YHC explained the partner circuit.  @AlrightAlright was bummed that there was a disincentive to bear crawl/crab walk quickly and repeated voiced his displeasure.  As PAX were staggered throughout workout chatter was muted although @Rump Roast was purposeful in giving me a capital “FU” some where throughout the beat down.  Huzzah!  I believe all teams completed the full circuit by time.
