PAX: Popeye, Pope, TeraVanilli, Yankee Jeaux, Safety Valve
AO: The Stage
By: Popeye
On Sunday while trying to ignore the pain of a Saturday 5k chasing down AB with Safety Valve (never get in the way of AB trying to beat a child or man with a stroller in a race) then following it up with a day of manual labor, I noticed the Q sheet was blank for Monday am. Partially out of concern for my fellow PAX but more out of concern for myself, YHC quickly seized the vacant spot on the sheet and searched the depths of the GroupMe image database for something intriguing to bait YJ out into the gloom. The images were disappointing, so I went to what I thought was a failsafe option: a .gif (hard G) of Borat giving the overjoyed thumbs up… unbeknownst to me when you modify a .gif it just becomes an image and the magic is lost. Defeated, YHC just went to bed and figured I’d whip something up at 0430.

Mosey to halfway point of first cut-through, back to start, 20 merks, then mosey to far end and back. Then do deep squats amrap. # of Squats = your points.
Did 4 rounds.
**note: for the real challenge, this is going to be 110 yards/half a lap; and if you haven’t read about “Toilet Squats” then get ready…we’re going deep.**
Mosey back to the stage, 60 second plank to close it out.
No real theme other than to get the body moving and stretch these old joints; thankful for the other 4 PAX who made it out the fartsack for some brotherhood in the gloom.
