Plank it up in First Baptist Parking Lot
Some More Yoga (squats)
Thang:
Bear Crawl with additive Merkins at each parking line

More Yoga? Yep
33 Monkey Humpers in cadence (nobody liked this)
Some burpees in cadence
Brisk Mosey to Sisk Memorial Parking Lot to find Cinder Blocks
(There's a reason it's called Block Party)
Thang:- divided into groups of 3
- Three Stations: Manmakers, plank, run to bottom of Massey hill and back
Had time for everyone to do one rotation (probably 15-20ish manmakers)
7 Additional Burpees in cadence

Mosey with the blocks back to COT
NMM:
Quote for the day from Thoreau's Journal August 5 1891 "“The question is not what you look at, but what you see.”
A word on today's naming: the Q takes responsibility for the outcome. That was me today. On naming an FNG, I went with "Dude Wipes" as a suggestion thrown out. Not the worst name, but was not right for this FNG.
It didn't feel right. I did a poor job reading his body language. I should have vetoed it. Not my best moment as Q. We'll rename this FNG.
When we're on Q, we are charged to take responsibility. In this moment, I accepted responsibility for the outcome of the naming. In the future, I'll take responsibility fearlessly when convicted. Even (especially?) when that conviction appears as a still small voice. If that means going against the flow of the PAX, so be it. After all, that's a leader's job: influencing movement towards advantage. Sometimes we gotta row upstream. I should have rowed harder today, and that's on nobody but me.
Besides, none of the PAX wanted to do that many burpees or monkey humpers anyway. So if I go with a name they're not happy with, it's just more of the same from the 1st F side of the morning.
Welcome - unnamed FNG, It'll be good to post with you again soon.
Welcome - Barrel Age, I think you brought out a lot of PAX to support you today!
Prayers for the kids, teachers, and parents of the FMSD as they plan for a return to school 5 days a week at all levels.
