Birthday at the Boneyard

AO: Boneyard

When: 2024-08-05

QIC: Irene

PAX (12): Bo Knows, Cox, Darkside, defcon2, FannyPack, Floater, Mater, Speedo, Stifler, Stroller, SoccerMom

Preamble:

I signed up for a pre-birthday Q on 8/2, but I nearly missed it until our SiteQ offered a trade, which worked out for the both of us. After YHC put a call-for-commits on Sunday, Darkside requested a hard BD, so YHC felt obligated to provide. After three failed attempts, YHC reverted to my most recent BD at the Bridge: Rock around the Clock

Warm-O-Rama:

No new Pax or FNGs, so a quick disclaimer was given and we were off to work. Mosey around the parking lot to the opposite side of the flag. SSH, Windmills, Imperial Walkers, Willie Mays Hayes, Arm Circles, and – for the Olympics – Michael Phelps.

The Thang:

YHC prepared by laying out 12 cones on half the turf field. The center of the field was 12 o’clock and the center nearest Mater’s parking lot was 6 o’clock (the remaining hours were marked accordingly with their own cones). Each cone represented an exercise, but the Pax didn’t find out until the cone was selected. The first lap began with 12 and 6 before we began adding 1 hour a lap. 12 – Plank Jacks 1 – Absolution 2 – Lt. Dan (Lunge-Lunge-Squat) 3 – Kraken Burpees (3 HR Merkins at the bottom) 4 – No Surrenders 5 – Heels to Heaven 6 – Single Count Bonnie Blairs 7 – Diamond Merkins 8 – Alpha Mountain Climbers 9 – Alpha Fire Hydrants 10 – Bobby Hurleys 11 – Merkins As Speedo helpfully reminded us in Slack, we added hours in the following order: 12 – 6 – 5 – 8 – 4 – 1 – 9 – 3 – 11 – 10 – 7 – 2 We ended with a minute left, so half the Pax moseyed to pick up cones and half the pax ran back for Mary. We joined back up right on time for the call

COT:

The following prayers were shared: for Candy Crush as he goes through some personal stuff for Teachers and Students returning back to school this week for Stifler’s Sister as she battles with Thyroid issues for Mater’s job search for Nick Parker’s family (friend of Irene’s) Treasure what you’ve got while you’ve got it. Reach out to Cox on Slack if you want a recommendation on a great sleep study to aid with sleep apnea issues/complications.

Naked-Man Moleskin:
