Block Party

For my second Q I thought I would sleep much better the night before having been through the fear of the first. I would have, I wasn’t concerned, but the Chinese I had for dinner didn’t allow it. Makes me wonder what was in it. Hmm  Anyway, onto the thing. 

Weather was brisk but nice. 

We had NSD with us for his third showing and Flexseal made it up as well.  NSD was brave enough to tag along on a Hot Lips pre-run but Markup assured him that if I was on Q it wouldn’t matter because there would be no more running. I thought about getting defensive, running, but who was I kidding…he’s right!

Warm up- All IC

SSH, Imperial Storm Troopers, plankers(Humpy’s with a thrust at the end, planks signature move), ATT, Little arm circles both ways. 

The Thang 

Mosey to the brick pile (see, I run) everyone get a block and mosey back to the Hill. Ladders on the hill starting with 10 block push ups rifle carry up the hill squats, rifle carry down the hill. Next set of ladders Bent over rows shoulder carry up the hill, shoulder presses and shoulder carry down. So that’s 55 of each of those if my math is right. 

Take the blocks to the parking lot and partner up for 100 Bench Press 200 Rows 100 curls. Partner runs while other lifts.  FYI sucks to be my partner here. 

Put the blocks back up and worked our soul’s cores. Start with 30 LBC then Jane Fonda’s, 20 LBC then Rosealetta’s, 10 LBC then flutter kicks. And wrap up with 5 LBC 

WOD

Talked about all of the trauma we’ve seen as a group. Discussed the fact that while our traumas may not be as bad as others it’s still important to go through them, feel them, and lean on our brothers when needed. Everyone has stuff. I thought about Luke 8:24, the guys are freaking out in the storm on the boat, they wake up Jesus and he takes care of business, but then asks them “Where was your faith”. Bad things will happen, storms come and go, some are much much larger then others. Have faith that we will get through it and always know it’s ok to reach out regardless of the situation.
