Merkins for Merica

At 0530 it was already hot and humid for The Whoopie at The View but that did not deter 6 Pax from the challenge of getting out of bed in the gloom.

After a very brief disclaimer we moseyed toward the Wilson Canal Pump Station at a leisurely warm up pace. Once at the pump station we started with Merkins for Merica to Thunderstruck by AC/DC for 5 minutes of planking and Merkins.

We then entered a Merkins for Merica Dora. Pax 1 would run downhill toward Lake Pontchartrain and towards the Treasure Chest, then Bernie Sanders up the walkway to Pax 2 who was starting on 100 T-Merkins. As we were about half way through the 100 T-Merkins, we picked up a 7th Pax member.

After each group had their 100 T-Merkins, we followed with 200 Wide Merkins and 300 Shoulder taps.

We then moved over to the wall for 1 minute of people’s chair, 1 minute of wall handstands and another minute of people’s chair before returning to our Flag-less starting location for 5 minutes of Mary and the COT.

During the announcement portion we mentioned the upcoming Gnarley Nutria and promoted the Tuesday nights with Q Source.

Next Tuesday we will cover the Whetstone which is mentoring with the analogy of the whetstone sharpening a blade 

Tuesdays at 7:30 pm via zoom or in person with a little F2 (fellowship) starting at 7 pm.

During the intentions we lifted up those struggling with health issues, along with those struggling with mental, emotional, marital difficulties and those dealing with their jester deamons. We closed with giving gratitude for F3!

God Bless America and thank you for the opportunity to push myself and hopefully push those present with my version of Merkins for Merica.
