12 Days of Christmas Already?

Got to the park with 15 mins. to go and already had a couple people there. I chatted with Yoga Mat but headed off to see how far my warm up lap was. About 0.6 miles which would work nicely. Warm up Up the hill and around the parking lot to Chanticleer’s for Plank hold, 10 Plank Jacks, 10 Mountain Climbers, 10 Good Mornings and 10 Donkey Kicks. Then we jogged back to the park.

Mutiny in the Dark

Warm-Up Mosey around the parking lot and circle up for side straddle hops, imperial walkers, cotton pickers, an attempt at Sir Fazio arm circles that was derailed by Hermes’s counting and YHC’s laughter, followed by ten penalty burpees. The Thang Mosey out of the park and down to the Crescent Green parking lot for Paula Abdul. The plan was to travel around the perimeter of the parking lot by moving two steps (light poles) forward, one step (light pole) back, but YHC failed to communicate the instructions clearly at the beginning.

WWW x 3 and Largemouth 2.0's B-day

Strong showing Wednesday morning for the birth of Largemouth’s 3rd child.

High-Tempo Molly Hatchet

17 of Carpex’s finest entered into the brisk gloom, 16 from automobiles and 1 from a bicycle. After auctioning off the Kryptonite Q yesterday, YHC still had the urge for a high tempo Q. Plans were made known via GroupMe (like by Hello Kitty and WKRP within 15 seconds) so YHC was guilt-free. And there was no need for guilt with this set of PAX, they all crushed it (as the kids say).
