A solid 9 PAX (ultimately) gathered in the frozen gloom, though Goats in the Machine and the newly named Sonic rolled in a little late and had to meet us on the football field due to a classic 4-year-old shoe hunt.
PAX: Enron, Cardinal, Kilo, Dumpster Fire, Goats in the Machine, Pope, Coyote, Sonic, Goose
After a warmup of the usuals (SSH, AC, WM, IW, SL, High Knees and Butt Kicks), we moseyed to the E.D. White football field for the first Thibodaux experience of 1st and 10. Started on the 10 yard line with 10 merkins and 1 burpee followed by a sprint to the goal line and a mosey back to the 20 for 9 merkins and two burpees. Sprinted to the goal line and back to the 30 for 8 merkins and 3 burpees, etc. until we ended at the goal line with 1 merkin and 10 burpees.
Enron and YHC both noticed the unique, exhilarating feeling of running the length of a football field into the endzone, realizing that it wasn’t something either of us have experienced outside of maybe special teams. I guess late 30’s is better than never, though the roar of the crowd sounded more like wheezing and cursing.
Nice, long mosey from the field to the Thunderdome hauling all the layers we shed after two minutes on the football field. PAX completed the following on the bleachers:
20 R Leg step ups
20 Freak Nasties (YHC shared newfound knowledge of why dips are called Freak Nasties: “Dip, baby, dip!”)
20 L leg step ups
20 Irkins
15 Box jumps
15 Derkins
PAX gathered armfuls of wardrobe and moseyed to the diamond for animal baseball:
Round 1:
All PAX started at home, revving up with 20 mountain climbers before bear crawling to first, crab walking to 2nd, duck walking to 3rd, and bunny hopping home.
Round 2–Animals have gone Rabid!
Started at home by pounding the frozen ground with 10 Mahtkar N’Diayes, then Crawl Bear to first, Walk Crab to 2nd, Walk Duck to 3rd (interesting), and Hop Bunny home.
Indian Run around the park followed by some Mary at the soon to be built flag: Crunchy Frogs and Nolan Ryans.
Welcome Sonic!
COT and Enron prayed us out.
SYITG,
