“It’s time for a showdown: you and me. I’m right here, come and get me!”
-Lieutenant Dan
The forecast called for the front line to roll through about 5am, but upon waking, it appeared that we had just missed the rain and tumult. Still the flashes of lightening and the threat of hazardously unpleasant weather seemed enough to keep attendance low. Arriving to a Steve-less Scramble, YHC knew it took less than hail and sleet to foster the fartsack for some. But Ackbar, Shooter, and the reliably tardy Cowbell had other plans.
WARMORAMA
x10 IC:
Imperial Walkers
Windmills
High Knees
Grass Grabbers
Slow Squats
Butt Kicks
THANG
The pre-ordained progression unfolded with the scramblers skipping over puddles. Cowbell specifically mentioned how getting his shoes wet would ruin his run….Oh would it now?
About 1.5 miles in (just long enough for Q to actually get warmmed up), lightening streaked across the sky and the heavens once more opened over Mandeville. The wind-whipped sheets of torrential rain, rather than ruining, actually invigorated the rambling foursome, who had by this point split into the engine and the caboose. A respectable sub-9 was had by all as the train pulled into the water-logged station.
MARY
A rapid-fire abbreviated Mary involved x20 IC (moving directly from one exercise into the next) LBCs, Freddy Mercurys and Flutter Kicks.
COT
Remaining comfortably on our soaking sixes, COUNT/NAME/ANNOUNCE/PRAY with Q taking the lead out.
F1/F2 coming next month at the Gipper Thursday Nov 21@6pm/6:30pm
