PAX: Mufasa, Big Unit, Obi-Wan, Fine Print, Yodel, Tea Party, Macanudo, Crab Cakes, Chowda, Vlasic, Barn Door, Slow Clap, Sasquash and 3 FNG’s – (Homeboy, Drive-Thru, Sargent Pencil)
Q Kicked off the festivities promptly at 5:30 where we stated the mission statement, five core principles, and had Fine Print read the exceptionally expanded non-redacted disclaimer. Q mentioned that Yodel was originally planned to Q this morning but was gracious enough to give up his spot since it had been a minute since Ketchup had Q’d. As such, in honor of his sacrifice, we are going to pay homage his home country of Austria with some trivia and special exercises. Q asked if there were any FNG’s and was happily shocked that there were three. After several whoops, we were off for Warm-a-rama and the first round of trivia where we moseyed through the park to the cross walk near the path to the lake.

Pre-Thang – Relay Sprints
PAX were instructed pair off and assemble with their team at the painted cross walk at the bottom of the hill. Looking up the hill there were 4 cones spread 50 yards apart. On go – PAX 1 from each pair sprinted to the first cone and immediately went into a plank. As soon as they saw the plank – PAX 2 started their sprint. Upon arrival to PAX 1, PAX 2 immediately went into plank and PAX 2 took off to the second cone. This process was rinsed and repeated until all PAX members were at the 4th cone.
This process was repeated two more times, down and back up the hill, only with Elbow Planks and the Gator Spear Pose as PAX members stopped at each cone.
Once done with the Pre-Thang – we moseyed all the way back to field by Atlas Street for the Thang.
The Thang
PAX were divided into 4 groups and they split up between 4 cones that were setup 25 yards apart in a square pattern. PAX moved from cone to cone using various movements and completed exercises at each cone. Movements consisted of Austrian Slides, Hasselhoff Army Crawls, Schrodinger’s Cat Crawls, Schwarzenegger Leaps. Stations 1 and 3 were core states, 2 was upper body and 4 was lower body. Instructions were given for the PAX to pick their exercises at each station.

We were pretty much out of time so we covered the FNG’s who we named SGT Pencil, Homeboy and Drive-Thru. For the message we did the 6th man and Macanudo came up and told us about himself. We learned he has been a coach for years and truly enjoyed cigars :).
Ketchup took us out in prayer and we departed.
