Whew. It was Hot and Muggy. No wind. Just moisture lingering in the air. High Rise and I staring at watches, wondering if it was going to be a Man Date or not. But SOGO, Frac and Saban rolled in hot – so 5 of us set off to the levee.

Top of the levee for a quick warmup of stretching, Imperial Walkers, and SSH. Today is the last day of YHC’s 55th trip around the sun, so I pulled up a playlist representing top hits from my 18th birthday year – August of 1985.

The Thing: Modifying the “40” to be a “55”. Each round is 55 reps of the exercise. 11 at the start, over the levee for 11 more, back for 11, back over for 11, back to the start for 11.

Round 1: Hand Release Merkins
Round 2: Big Boy Situps
Round 3: Monkey Humpers. SOGO attacked by ants, so he got a pass on this one.

Damn, its hot. 20 count Frac

Round 4: Plank Walks.
Round 5: Heels to Heaven
Round 6: Slow Squats

Still hot. 10 counts sprinkled around for everyone.

Round 7: Peter Parkers

Mosey to the top of the levee for some mary, then back to the flag.

COT: It is *HOT*. Everyone, be careful out there. Praying for the health and well being of the many homeless in our city who are bearing this heat without the benefits that most of us take for granted.
