14 PAX including 1 FNG converged on the gated 4th of July Park. Some through caution to the wind and weaved around the barricades while others moseyed in from another part of town parking.
PAX: Sludge, Flo Rida, DoubtFire, Gilmore, Cousin Eddie, Tarde, Epstein, Hobbs!!, Radar, Boones Farm, Slice N Dice, Checkbook, FNG Kevin Edmond (Hot N Now), QIC Special Ed
With an FNG in attendance YHC had to step his game up and complete the necessary disclaimer and Mission. Breaking from protocol, or is it creating our own rules, YHC introduced FNG Kevin Edmond at the beginning to give the PAX ample time to sort out the names. Kevin is a neighbor of Gilmore, Police Officer in Burlington, a Winston native, and was wearing more clothes in one workout than Epstein has worn his entire F3 career.

With the PAX duly informed, a mosey to the warm up circle was at hand
WARM A RAMA
10 ABE Vigoda’s Slow Count each Side
20 Sobriety Style Sun Gods Forward, Reverse
20 Chinooks, Forward, Reverse
15 Frankenstein’s for Lucky
20 Seam Rippers
With the PAX sufficiently warmed, we moseyed to the Parking Lot above the baseball field where they were divided into groups of 3 or 4. Not looking to reinvent the wheel, the ole slips of paper in a bucket routine (or cup) was pulled from the back seat of YHC car to produce this:
THA THANG
LBCs IC 20 count by the light pole
20 dips at guard rail
20 dips at benches
10 pull-ups at track
5 hills reverse
5 hills forward
10 Derkins at benches
10 Derkins at guard rail
2 laps up the stairs
5 prisoner get-ups at 2nd base
10 shoulder taps at 1st base
10 Lt. Dans at home plate
5 Worst Merkins ever at 3rd base
20 big boy sit-ups/pull ups at railings
15 Monkey Humpers by the light pole
15 Squats at the track gate
15 Erkins on the baseball hill
10 each Leg Step Ups at benches
15 IC Crunch Frogs at Dumpsters
15 Bobby Hurleys at Warm up Circle Gate
15 Carolina Dry Docks in the outfield
21 chances to better yourself and your group. YHC’s group got 20 of the 21 completed it appears. Thanks to Gilmore for pushing our Group back up the hill to the bus benches yet again. Best line from our group; Checkbook on the third trip to the benches, “Can’t they just move the benches down here to us”
With timed called, the PAX moseyed to the bball courts, now housing a stage. YHC was encouraged to perform Monkey Humpers on stage, but declined in fear our FNG would indeed never return.
6MOM
20 LBCs in Cadence
20 Low Slow Flutters
20 Hammers

With introductions out of the way, FNG Kevin Edmond stepped in the circle for his official name. Many were tossed around, but with obvious reference to FNG’s occupation, Hot-N-Now is now a member of the PAX.
Praises
Epstein’s Church baptizing 16 kids (YHC thinks he heard correctly that the church is baptizing the kids Sunday and not Epstein himself…..)
Epstein’s Friend (house fire) is staying with family and is proud of her new found Roller Derby friends that sent cards to her (guess you had to be there to understand…)
Prayers for Man Hands
Prayers for Sam Jenkin’s sister (Gilmore’s friend) for terminal brain cancer
Sludge led us out.
In an attempt to avoid an Evil beatdown, YHC signed up to Q late Friday night and provided an evil beatdown at least to himself…hope others got something out of 2.6 miles of moseying and 21 possible exercises
Thanks, the slips of paper are ready and waiting for the next time…
