Block Party Beat Down

I was excited to Q Block Party after the co-Q at The Fort on Sat. I arrived early and saw 7 runners take off at 5:00 sharp with Bird Cage leading the way down the back trail. Cars began to file in and the cars kept coming. I wasn’t expecting a large crowd and then I heard that CSPAN was still in town and was coming to Block Party so I knew there would be a big and rowdy crowd on hand.

Once we hit 5:15, no FNG’s were present so a short disclaimer and off we moseyed. Since the park has several obstacles littering the grass from the festival, I was going outside of the park. We moseyed to the first parking lot up front and circled up.

- Imperial Walkers

- SSH

- Arm circles front and back

- arm stretch across body

- mountain climber

- slow merkin - 3 count down, 3 count hold, 3 count up

Mosey over to the sidewalk and wall near Springs Global. 3 exercises , 3 sets, decreasing reps each set.

- Dips - Reps - 25/20/15

- Derkins - 20/15/10

- Step-UPS - 30/20/10

Mosey to the big hill and meet at the top parking lot. 3 excercises, 15 reps each, then run to bottom of the hill and come back up the hill backwards.

- Squats/Monkey Humpers/Calf Raises

- Slow Merkin/MNN/O/H Clap

- Flutter/ Big Boy Sit-up/Hello Dolly

Mosey back to the sidewalk and wall where we started and do one more set of dips and derkins 20 & 15. Mosey back to the park. Since we had a few minutes left I decided to take a lap around the park on the path for an added bonus. We ended back at the parking lot for set of LBC’s.

This was a great morning and I enjoyed the chatter and hard work. Through the Q Source, I have been motivated to look for ways to continue to accelerate in all areas. I shared with the group that I have been successful in accelerating in King, Queen and Jester control, but the last 4 weeks the QSource was focused on Faith. I was convicted that I am not accelerating in study and recognize the need to have my shield locks there to hold me accountable and provide the push I need. I asked everyone to think of where they need to accelerate and who are they going to have beside them to hold them accountable.

Thanks Esso for the opportunity to Q and lead the Pax.
