Preamble:

3 years ago today was Valley Girl's first BD and he had to bail on his Q due to a knee injury.  It just so happens YHC was Q on that first day at the same AO so I stepped in and ran it back verbatim to pay homage.

Warm-O-Rama:

did some stuff.

The Thang:

Backblast from 3 years ago (only change was from dying cockroach to crunchy frog at the end)... https://f3alpha.com/backblast/2021/08/09/do-work/

The Thang:

Head back from whence we came and over to the good football field where PAX were given instructions to line up on the goal line for bearpees.  The routine is simple:  bear crawl 10 yards and to 2 burpees.  Keep bear crawling 10 yards and adding 2 burpees the entire length of the field until you reach the opposite goal line and finish with 20.  I’m pretty sure the exicon has this starting with 1 and adding 1 each 10 yards down the field but there’s no way Dark Helmet  would let that fly in Fort Mill…too soft.  Some mixed mary for the six to finish. While I was planning to rest the legs, YHC just felt like running at this point so PAX were instructed to sprint from the goal line to the 50 and then back off to a slower mosey to the opposite goal line.  Rinse and repeat but mosey to the 50 and then sprint the rest of the field to the opposite goal line. With that out of our system, we headed over to the bleachers/benches for a no-mosey round of 11’s.  Derkins and dips…that’s it. A little bit of time left called for some partner work on the wall.  Partner 1 does BTTW while partner 2 does 10 dying cockroach (alpha count).  Flapjack for a total of 3 rounds. Mosey back to the flag with 2 minutes and just enough time to make it really awkward for our FNG with a round of howling monkeys to close it out…awkward for sure.  

COT:

Prayers for Snowman's tough work disappointment, Durty Nelly's uncertainty with his son, Vanna's horrible business situation.  Praises for Grimace's son's 5th birthday!  and also huge kudos to Tony for his 3rd post this week after joining us as an FNG on Monday.  Shout out to Relient too for being a true model of consistency and putting in the work week in and out...a true stud and inspiration in his own right.

Naked-Man Moleskin:

YHC has had the pleasure of getting to know Valley Girl over the last 3 years and can honestly say my life is better for it.  I joked about his appearance in my backblast from his first post in 2021 but can truly say he's one of the most thoughtful and generous people I know.  Love you brother!
