5 strong this morning, including our first FNG to #RockCity in many moons.  Thanks to Yankee for reminding YHC about the disclaimer as we headed out into the gloom.

The Thang

  • Mosey to the Rock pile for our Warm-Up
  • Warm-up COP: SSH IC x 30; Imperial Walkers IC  x 30; Good Mornings IC x 15; Squats x 20; Forward Arm Circles IC x 20;; Backwards Arm Circles IC x 20
  • Select your rock and Mosey to the Outhouse. (Another unintentional post warm-up rest period as we wait for Yankee to find the perfect rock.)
  • 3 sets of People’s Chair con roca in your lap. Roughly 45 seconds each.  40 toe raises IC between each set:  Regular, feet out, pigeon-toe.
  • It was during the calf raises where Roots began to ponder, out loud mind you, if the stanky smell was his breath reflecting off of the rock or the rock itself. He decided it was the rock itself; however, I doubt the rest of us were very convinced of that conclusion.
  • Mosey over the Hill to the jogging path on the other side.
  • Indian Rock Run: Pax in a line carrying rock Cusak style.  Man at back of the line, runs to the front of the line carrying the rock anyway he wants.  This continued for about an 1/8 of a mile.
  • Bleachers: Right Leg Step up IC x 16, Decline Merkin IC x 8, Left Leg Step up IC x 16, Incline Merkin IC x 8…repeat decreasing Step up reps by 4 and Merkin reps by 2 each time for a total of 4 sets.
  • Mosey to the Bird Sanctuary
  • A minute and a half of Mary: LBT IC x 50; Crunchy Frog IC x 15
  • Mosey to the flag
  • Fence Chunkers x 16 (that’s a very rough estimate)
  • Mosey back to the Rock Pile. (Hopefully Yankee remembers where he dropped his rock this time. He obviously did not last time.)
  • Horse to stables back to the Flag.

Moleskin

On my way to the workout, YHC EH’d Ëcks as he was out jogging.  Yankee is trying to take credit by insinuating that Ëcks was jogging to the workout because he had already EH’d him.  I propose we change his name from Reluctant Yankee to No-good, dirty, lyin’, FNG-stealing Yankee.  It’s a thought.  It is great to actually have someone else from Metairie coming to the Metairie workout.  I am looking at you Chard and Channel Mullet.  T-claps to the Pax as we did a lot of mosying with the rocks today.  I think the Cusak Run was a hit.  That will have to be revisited.  T-claps to Mr. Awesome and Yank for their pace back to the flag.  YHC tried to catch Yankee but I didn’t come close.

Shout Out

We gave thanks for our health and the opportunity to come out and get stronger physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.  We prayed for those facing cancer and for their families.  God give them the strength to defeat this horrible disease.
