AO: Raptor
When: 06/24/2021

PAX (14): Turbine, Stroller, Cookie, Locksmith, Stiffarm, HotSauce, Hasslehoff, Lefty, False Start, Caffey, Updike, Sleepless, Fanny Pack
Preamble:
Our man Hasslehoff is heading out for the great state of Texas so the RAPTOR wanted to give him a big sendoff. He is also a mountain climber and has higher aspirations (pun intended), which gave YHC a nice theme for the day.
The Rubicon joined with us to see him off, which was highly appreciated.
Warm-O-Rama:
HotSauce and Stroller inaugurated the first Raptor Pre-run!
The rest of us started off with – MOUNTAIN CLIMBERS! Then the usual SSH, Imp Walkers and Weed Pickers. And a mosey around the park down to the school wall.
The Thang:
- At the wall: Aussie Mountain Climbers! (Mountain climbers in the BTTW position). There was some debate about the authenticity of this exercise from Stiffarm.
- Moseyed up to Mt. Raptor but the group was too big for the space. Shifted to the middle parking lot for WEBBICIDES (suicide sprints to each parking lot line where you complete an increasing number of merkins 1-14). Total merkins = 105
- Moseyed to the grass for 4 Corners (escalator-style): 10 Mountain Climbers, 20 LBCs, 30 American Hammers, 40 plank jacks. Then flapjacked and repeated.
- Finally, grabbed a coupon and circled up for Jack Webbs – 205 presses.
COT:
The pax prayed over Hasslehoff – encouraging him in his faithfulness to his wife and in-laws, and shepherding of his boys.
Hasslehoff encouraged us all to make specific efforts to get to know one another and deepen our friendships.
Well done and safe travels Hoff – you’ll be missed!
