YHC was going to fall short by a tenth of a point in the ISI challenge for the month of May. But yesterday YHC saw an opportunity to take the lead, but was careful not to taunt Shooter from the Northshore and chance getting crushed! Those NS Pax are relentless! YHC saw that Shooter was also Q’ing this morning, which meant a fartsack by yours truly was not acceptable. Thanks for pushing me hard this month Shooter!
YHC was happy to see 7 others post at Okwata, 7 men committed to improve. There were three shovel flags planted and the clock showed 0530, which could only mean one thing…..brief disclaimer….and mosey…
Mosey around the fountain, carioca left, then right, followed by butt kicks. Circle up on the grassy area in front for:
Warmup
SSH IC x 31 – Hawgcycle gave an explanation of why he uses 31 at Pontiff, which is a tribute to the number 31 worn by the great Wally Pontiff who sadly died too young. YHC has a different reason for the 31, and that is a reference to the ship I served on in the US Navy. It was the USS Strerett CG-31.
The Sterett was 547 feet long, with a compliment of 418 men. I proudly served as part of her crew from December 1988 until April 1992.

Mosey to the barre for double shots with Jack Webb
1 merkin followed by 2 air presses (double shots) in the people chair against the barre.
2 merkin……..4 air presses
3 merkin……..6 air presses
you get the idea
10 merkins……20 air presses
Mosey to the House of Pain for Circuits
Pair up, four stations
Station 1 – Bear Crawl up levee and complete 5 merkins, run back down (timer)
Station 2 – Squats (AMRAP)
Station 3 – Step Ups (AMRAP)
Station 4 – Pull Ups (AMRAP)
Rinse and Repeat
Mosey to a steep part of the levee for 11’s
1 Squat Okwata side, run up and over, 10 Burpees opposite side
2 Squat Okwata side, run up and over, 9 Burpees opposite side
You get the idea – always adds up to 11
10 Squats Okwata side, run up and over, 1 Burpees opposite side
The Pax seemed let down that YHC did not invoke the DirtyMacDeuce this day, and especially because this caused them to miss out on the wonderful Catalina Wine Mixers. YHC can’t leave the Pax wanting, so…
