Pre-Thang
YHC scoped out the AO the day before his Q. Glad he did. He noticed all the blocks hidden behind the Fountain of Youth were gone!!! Not sure who took them. Could it be Valerio, the killer Jaguar??? Could it be a Pax from Metry or Lakeview? With the blocks gone, YHC had to come up with another plan. 23 PAX managed to meet up on a moist, wet, humid, warm Wednesday morning in the middle of Feb. At 5:30, YHC gave his standard disclaimer and off the PAX.
Warm-ups
Moseyed to the band stand and did the following in cadence:
SSHs x 20
Windmills x 10
Grass Grabber x 10
Imperial Walkers x 20
Then an easy mosey to the track within the Oak Alley and back to the Band Stand.
The Thang
Starting off behind the Band Stand surrounded by duck droppings, each Pax did the following:
Round 1 – Rocky Balboa x 50 IC, climbed over the stage to the other side, slow Merkins x 10 IC, moseyed to the next light post within the Oak Alley with Plank Jacks x 20 IC, moseyed to the next light post with Peter Parkers x 20 IC, moseyed to the track with 10 burpees OYO.

COT
Count-O-Rama 23PAX, Name-O-Rama, announcements, intentions. We prayed for a safe Mardi Gras season. Thank You all again for the opportunity to lead. The Pax motivates me everyday to push harder than I would ever do on my own. SYITG
