It’s been awhile since I made it back to the Mothership. Glad Catfish reached out and signed me up to Q. I had no excuse but to grab my passport and crossed that Parish line to a very far, far place called City Park.<\/p>\n

It was a humid, hot Saturday morning. By 6:30 a.m., I can see the glares coming off Gabby’s shiny head as he was waiting for us at the Canal Street PJ’s. Tclaps to couple pax who brought their weighted vests to the beatdown. <\/p>\n

We warmed up by the Peristyle with stretches, arm circles, Imperial Walkers, Hill Billies, SSHs, open gates, slow low squats, high knees, karaoke, and side hops. After our bodies were loosen up, we slowly Indian ran to NOMA.<\/p>\n

By the steps in front of NOMA, we did inclined merkins up each step all the way to the top. We did 20 Rocky Balboa’s in cadence and 15 right \/ left leg power ups by the fountain.
\nI was looking for shade the entire workout. Instead of moving to the baseball field, we stayed in front of the fountain and did DORA 1, 2, 3 with 100 merkins, 200 SSHs, and 300 flutter kicks (one is one on the count). While one partner was doing those exercises, the other pax ran to a designated vehicle and back.<\/p>\n

After DORA, we Indian ran to the Baby Foundry. We did 5 pull ups, 10 alternate forward lunges, another 5 pull ups, 10 slow low squats, final 5 pull ups, and 10 alternate backward lunges. We left the Baby Foundry and headed to the Great Lawn.<\/p>\n

By the time we arrived to the Great Lawn, about 1\/4 of the field had shade. And I know the Pax thanked me for hiding in that corner for the last set of exercises before meeting up with Mary. First, we bear crawled half of the field and back. Second, we duck walked half of the field and back. We finally finished off with burpee broad jumps half of the field. <\/p>\n

We headed back to where we started at the Peristyle with flutterkicks and Hello Dolly’s. We left Mary behind and finished the morning with stretches. Moseyed back to the flag with announcements and intentions.<\/p>\n

The Pax went to coffeeteria for some F2 fellowship. I am forever grateful knowing the Pax will always be there for me.<\/p>\n
