the Stage
After a heavy cardio Saturday, how could YHC rekindle the PAX’s attention on the importance of a well rounded approach to health and fitness? One can become preoccupied with one or the other. The delicate balance is a dish served cold, and wet, and possibly in the early morning gloom.
Warmarama was performed in typical fashion. Heavy emphasis on leg stretch with the obligatory arm circles and CP’s.
YHC told the pax that a mile run was in store to warm up as well. Everyone headed to the starting line with the usual ho-hum silent chatter. Paradox and YJ most probably rolled over to the sound of silence with an anxious heart much the way one wakes to a night terror.
YHC’s kicker was the backed in truck subtly awaiting with a fresh coupon. “Black Betty” was introduced to the PAX and she expressed her raging desire to accompany the PAX on this mile mosey. To those who failed to show, Black Betty is a heavy punching bag that tips the scale somewhere between 50-70 lbs depending on her water weight.
The mile mosey with Black Betty was exhilarating, with each PAX getting to know her personally. She was passed along at each light post like a classic Eyes wide Shut movie.
Back at the Stage, more COUS were revealed and a barrage of exercises were unleashed.
Partner up for some fun.
Partner 1 performs exercise while partner 2 takes a victory lap. The ol’ switcheroo between partners to reach the count goal.

Time was against us and 06:00 was upon us just as we got in our groove. Thankfully.
COT and prayers by Cardinal.
Thank you to all who put up with this Insanity!
