On down to Fury we go.  One stop at Project Hope for 25 squats, 25 Merkins, 25 Abs of choice.  Down to the bottom.

Dora time.  Partner up, work is cumulative.  100 burpees, 200 merkins, 300 abs.  While partner 1 works, 2 goes up to reflectors, alternating forward and backpedal each round (enter the 🔥).  

Dora complete, so what goes down must run back up.  Stopping again at Project Hope drive, 25 squats, 25 Bonnie's (hard way) and 25 abs of choice.

Back to where we began at the Gazebo.  50 incline merkins, 50 dips, 50 2-count flutter kicks (I think?)

Prayer Requests: Duggar son Ridley in hospital still in Japan, Crayola ans Sharpies mom, Pacer's M having an MRI.

YHC prayed us out.

NMM: Solid grind as always by some Furians, way to put in the work.  The 100 burpee and 200 merkin back to back in Dora was a killer.  Glad Boucher didn't ditch us for the Retirement Home, even though BC was slightly mobile.  Way to get better brother!  Always an honor to lead this crew.

Brut is out.

Pi day at Fury

Location: Fury

PAX: Southern Belle, Crayola, Bubble Wrap, Yorkie, Fratelli, Foreclosure, Mayflower, Duggar, Pacer, Sunshine, Brut, BenGay

Warmup (if any): Mosey to the coupon pile, grab a coupon, and go to the pavilion.

The Thang:

We're Doing What?

-PAX paired up and the following instructions were given. After we moseyed down to the lake, PAX 1 was going to begin lunge walking around the lake to the right. PAX 2 was going to mosey around the lake to the left. When the PAX meet, PAX 1 will start moseying back from where he came from while PAX 2 will continue to lunge walk in the same direction. Keep flipflopping until a complete circle was made.

-After completing one trip around the lake, proceed back to the pavilion for the next part.

Celebrating Pi Day OYO (Total of 314 reps)

-50 reps of the following:

-Manmakers

-Flutters the hard way with the block in press position

-Incline merkins

-Freddie Mercuries

-KB Swings

-LBCs

-14 reps of BDE burpees

Abs until both members of the original pair are done and then mosey around the lake together. After that, return to the pavilion for abs until the 6 comes in.

Mosey back to the coupon pile to return the coupons. We had 5 minutes left so we divided up into 3 teams in front of the pull-up bars. One PAX hung while the rest planked.

Recover was called and we returned to the flag.

Announcements:

Q sheet is wide open

Prayer Requests:

Crayola's mom is having surgery today.

NMM:

-YHC instructed everyone to bring headlights the night before on Twitter. It's pretty dark down by the lake. The lunge walks were definitely a crowd pleaser. And I'm sure we'll see them again.

-The guys killed the work this morning. Yorkie, Bubble Wrap, and Mayflower have all jumped in and are getting after it. Goes to show what consistency will do for you. Foreclosure was very impressed by the length of Sunshine's arms during the hanging portion and might have made a parallel to another part of the body. But you had to be there to know for sure.

-YHC shared that trials, tribulations, and suffering are a part of life. But, for those of us who are Christ followers, He asks us to trust in Him as we go through those times. And we should take these as a compliment since He must care enough about us to give us opportunities to be molded into His image. So, during these times, we are called to lean on Him and also our brothers in the gloom.

Until next time,

BenGay
