Solid showing of Pax

The BackBlast:

Rolled into the Bandit AO 10 minutes early and 5 pax were already present. What a way to show up.

Jumped out of the car, grab the flag and told the pax to join me. 0525 and we’re up to 10 pax. Solid numbers.

1 minute warning and we’ve got 20 pax circled up by the flag and more still rolling in.

0530 and a courtesy round of SSH was called to give time for the pax to catch up.

With everyone now together we set off up East BLVD stopping at the 5th/3rd Bank for COP.
– Plank
– Shoulder Taps
– Merkins
– Peter Parker’s
– Parker Peter’s

Sufficiently warmed up be recovered and shot over to Red27 to partner up. Pretty straightforward thang…
Partners go the opposite direction and zipper down Scott & Kennelworth. Stopping for 10 derkins each.

Plank at the bottom waiting for the 6.

Recovery then over to CMC parking deck. Easy thang here…
Run up the ramp, 5 Merkins at each turn. Plank at the top. (Not sure why planking is hard for pax to do).

Recover and back down via the stairs.

Same thang except with 3 burpees at each turn. Plank at the top.

Programming Note: Garage Ramps are never ending. This took longer than anticipated. We were going to get 5 rounds in. Fortunately I call an audible.

Back down the stairs and out of the garage for LBC until all pax were out.

Head to the base of Scott & Kenelworth. Zipper back up with your partner knowing out derkins.

Head back to 5th/3rd bank holding up for the 6. All accounted for, on quick time down spider walking down the bars of the ramp then AYG back to the flag. This was a bit of a show as 23 pax had to do this while we only had 2 minutes and 1/3rd of a mile back to the flag.

Some pax arrived on time, others were late. All waited for COT.

NMM
– Great to have so many pax join me this morning. Some of which I asked to join me and most where there because they knew it would be an epic Q. It was.
– We had wide range of ages with span of 29 years apart. Impressive to manage a q for young guns and respect that just don’t slow down.
– Rube is looking for Qs at BHM. Sign up

Prayers
– Marilyn for his wedding this weekend.
– People in the path of the hurricane
– All said and unsaid on our hearts.
