Preamble:

Now that YHC is somewhat familiar with the park, ideas have started flowing so I figured now was a good time to get a Q in there. Besides Snowman has been all over me to Q. Then he didn't show up. Weak.

Warm-O-Rama:

A little jog around the parking lots winding up between the fields at the rock pile. PAX was instructed to grab a substantial rock which we then rifle-carried to one of the goal lines and circled up for
  • Merkins
  • Forward Lunges
  • Seal Claps, O/H Claps, and Moroccan Night Clubs, Michael Phelps

The Thang:

This is the 2024 IronPax Challenge Week 3. Figured this was appropriate for 2 reasons:
  1. What does a Grindstone do? It sharpens iron. So Iron PAX sharpening Iron PAX and all that
  2. IronPax is run by the Greenwood, TN guys who were impacted by Helene. YHC thought it would be a fitting tribute to our brothers there
Brentwood Sandwich Bottom slice of bread - Bear crawl to the 30 then broad jump back to the goal line, doing 3 burpees after each jump. Pro tip: fall forward on those burpees Meat of Sandwich - Burpee Block Jump-overs, Thrusters, Bonnie Blairs, Hand Release Merkins, Big Boi Sit-ups, 400m Run. Format was 21-15-9 (21 reps of each the first set, 15 the second, 9 the 3rd) Top slice of bread - same as the bottom slice Once the 6 was in, rifle carry the rocks back to the pile, then mosey back to flag. Ended right on time.

COT:

All the things: count-a-rama, name-a-rama, announcements, prayers, prayer, pledge

Naked-Man Moleskin:

The impact from Helene in Western NC, Florida, southern GA, SC, ranges from simply devastating to apocalyptic. The needs are many, guys. Do what you can with your financial resources, your time, your contacts, and your leadership. This is why we do this. Also, HTTR, Go Pack, and GTHC MIAGD
