The BackBlast:
Boondoggle sends out the reminder note about YHC’s Q for this week’s episode of Bastion. Good thing he did. Furthermore, between BRR and the IronPax Challenge, choosing the medicine to be doled out was not an easy task. I decided to do a Cotswold favorite.
Extra Credit/Pre Run
Stinger and Pitino make a quick loop around Brookridge/GreenTree, Ripper threatened to have the Neighborhood watch called.
Main Event
Hit the road through the St. Gabe’s School lot with some karaoke and backward run. Cross Sharon Amity to PUMC parking lot for COP
SSHx20, Peter Parkerx10, Merkinsx10, Parker Peterx10, Squatsx20, Imperial Walkerx10
Head across Providence, down to Andover.
Coach calls the play ahead of time. Two steps forward, one step back down Andover. Run past first stop sign, hit second sign and do 10 merkins. Backtrack to first stop sign for 10 sumo squats (no jump needed). Repeat all the way (ALL THE WAY) down Andover.
Quick Mary circuit.
Head down Woodlark, stop at each street for 20 plank jacks.
Head back toward St. Gabes, crossing safely at crosswalks and huddle up for a quick Jack Webb with shoulder taps instead of air presses. #crowdpleaser #refuzeniks
Head down to the bottom lot, one quick loop around with 20 merkins, 20 jump squats at the bottom of the hill, 20 dips at the top, 20 LBC’s at crosswalk, back to COT

Announcements
Valdez is a true High Impact Man. Convinced many men to take their shoes off in the rain and he would take them home, clean them, and give them to the men of Mission I’m Possible. Kudos to Valdez and to those Pax members who walked to their car barefoot.
Backyard Scare is 10/30. All the Backyard Trails, choose your own adventure, 2.o and M friendly afterward for some good ol’ fashioned Halloween fun

Thanks to Boondoggle for the keys. Andover is a time killer with some pain in between. Newport tried to take credit for the Two Steps Forward, One Step Back. I know I learned it from Bullwinkle (or was it Moose?) I almost brought out the reconstructed burpee as well, but I did promise no burpees after the 88 we did yesterday. I am sending my royalty check to Bullwinkle and he can make it right with Newport. It keeps everyone on the same street, but it would be interesting to hear what some locals would say as they watch this group of dancing idiots roll up and down the street. Anyway, Swingline and Pepe out front all morning. Ripper, Fly With Me, Topham, and Hollins right behind them. Coach did some of the exercises. Solid crew out in the rain today. Thanks for keeping me company and for making me run faster.
