Sixteen PAX appeared from the gloom to end the week on a fun note with Game Day at the Uptowner.
After dispensing with the disclaimer, while the injured went to the track to walk, the rest of us moseyed a ways to find some lit areas of the park…apparently someone at Pontiff is trying to save the planet, one dark field at a time. Nevertheless, we found a trickle of light by the gym and started our warmups.
Warmups were a sprinkle of typical Fast Tax fare:
Abe Vagodas
Hairy Rockettes
Nancy Kerrigans
Swan Dives
Lining up by the gym parking lot, first up for the pre-game festivities was Indian Rabbit Hop.
Indian Rabbit Hop: PAX line up, face down in plank position, all facing left with 2-3 feet between PAX. Last man broad-jumps over the planking PAX to the head of the line, Indian Run style. We continued cycling through until YHC said stop.
Next up was 50 ish yards of Welsh Dragons.
While remaining in plank position, PAX bear crawls forward 5 yds, does 1 merkin, 1 plank jack, and tap the BACK of each shoulder 1 time. Repeat adding 1 rep to each exercise each 5 yds – bear crawl forward 5 yds, do 2 merkins, 2 plank jacks, 2 sets of back of shoulder taps… etc. We continued until we got to 8 reps each (I think), holding plank for rest of PAX to finish.
Battle Frisburpee time!
After a quick review of the rules, the game commenced.
Team 1 (Skins): Fast Tax, Buxton, Architect, Mayhem, Wedding Planner, Bogey, and Pool Boy
Team 2 (Shirts): Pilsbury, Logo, Boo-Boo, Bolt, Kuch, Mr. Rogers, Hand Grenada

Back to COT for count off, name o rama, announcements, intentions, & prayer.
