  • Running with Friends. – from Charmin

    KnOTer’s aside, it seemed as if most of the Pax today ran with someone at some point. Goes to show that we all cross each others paths at some point.

    COT involved praying for those who are suffering and going through tribulations.

  • Can you see it? – from Charmin

    Today was all about seeing. Seeing 16 PAX show up, seeing Rudy not read the “No Parking”, and YHC and others seeing how hard we could push ourselves in the gloom.

    Typical, KnOTers, Stretchers, and Runners were there.

    Ended with COT emphasizing that we are all figured a spiritual battle and asked for our guardian angels’ help.

  • Descend the Ladder con Roca – from Bolt

    Warmorama of the usual; Vagabond erroneously thought Kenna Brah had the Q and I’m sure regretted showing up for another of my musically schizophrenic playlists.
    The Thang: Descending Ladder with a rock (10 reps/exercise down to 9, 8, etc. reps/exercise): Squat (coupon), OH press, Curls, chest press, tricep press.
    Begin at first tree along side the parking lot facing the gym (it was here that Mahatma took off to second tree to do exercise one—not the directions!), Carry rock to second tree for second exercise where we all paid five burpee penalty for the transgression.

    At fifth tree plank on the six, turnaround and head back the opposite way with one less rep/exercise finishing at starting point. Rinse/repeat until we’ve descended the ladder.

    It was prior to starting round six that I introduced the skip exercise rule: call out, “skip” and roll Deca die of pain for our fate that replaces the skipped exercise, advance to next tree and resume the ladder. Mr. Rogers went first, followed by several others; we did ultimately finish the ladder in time to return rocks and circle up at the flag for Rochamburpee until time: winner does five merkins, loser does three burpees.

    Honored to lead and totally spent; this one sucked. COT.

  • Consistency – Unchanging In Nature, Standard Or Effect Over Time – from Charmin

    With Q Source being directly after this beatdown, YHC reflected on the fact that results are often brought about through Consistency. There was the normal group of KnOTers, Kennah Brah as the Lone Rucker, and a handful of Runners. Everyone did their own thing at their own pace and made it back to the Shovel Flag for the COT, where we prayed for numerous family and friends who are suffering right now.

  • 4 Corners – from Vagabond

    Warmup

    2 laps round track with rock – 15 reps each corner
    Rows
    overhead press
    curl
    Knee lunges rock twist

  • Easy as 1, 2, 3 plus an FNG – from Bolt

    The pax gathered in the gloom, buzzing with excitement at the mere sight of the JBL speaker; great to see Kotters: Left Coast and Mambi along with Boo Boo who was doing penance for missing Thursday Rucking. Upon giving the disclaimer KnOTS headed their way while we were off to the middle of the field where the pax’s exuberance exploded upon hearing Rapper’s Delight, especially Vagabond, while Triple’s FNG certainly started to question exactly what he’d gotten himself into. Warmorama of the usual with demonstration/explanation for the pax who’d become Malware by the end of the BD (welcome to the gloom, brother). Music skip rule in effect.

    The Thang:
    Dry dock ladder up the bleachers
    Squat ladder in reverse count down the bleachers, mosey to playground.

    Morning Call: all pax high plank while two pax do 5 pull ups, calling out the count for planking pax to merkin, Triple doled out a 5 burpee penalty about half through on a 5 minutes song with only 30 seconds to go. Mosey to the rocks.

    Easy as 123 (AMRAP):
    Chest press 1 min (really made the burpees tougher)
    Burpees 2 min (goal 20+, Triple, fueled by competitiveness and his younger, lighter FNG’s stamina hit 32—impressive)
    Step ups 3 min (the “Halfway there” announcement seemed to take 3 minutes)

    Circle up for 5 Absolutions OYO followed by Mary where Triple and YHC were feasted on by ants, ironically after YHC encouraged pax to seek an area without visible ant piles (the best laid plans…). KennaBrah took over the lead after my LBCs and Protractors (a pax favorite—Rudy where were u!?) with a plank/reverse plank alternating leg lift, while I disposed of the ants and passed it Cheese Steak for Hello Dollys and Mambi brought us home with ???

    Return to the flag, COT and naming ceremony for FNG/Malware; come back for ur second BD and discover that F3 is for YOU. SYITG.

  • The not so secret Wally Sprint – from Fracsac

    The Wally Sprint AO is no longer a secret, as could be seen with 17 posting today. Dinghy scoped it out last week and inevitably reported back to Moana that it was indeed an acceptable place to post. So Moana put his EH hat on and brought in a new member to our cult….err….Group!

    10 Pax sprinted under the direction of Pai Gow while rest did Knots or S&M. There’s something for everyone on Tuesday at Pontiff, so come on out and then hit up the Discipline is Destiny discussion after.

    COT

    NMM

    Welcome Judy P! It’s a reference to a judge and his last name is Long. Apparently we need help in the naming category. TCLAPS to Moana for the EH!

    Oh, and Strava tells me I’m a local legend in the 400M at Pontiff. Think you can take the title? C’Mon!

  • Remember 9/11 – from Fracsac

    With a Q-less Rock City at 0530, the Knot’s Pax left to do their thing so YHC gave a disclaimer and took the reins. Started with a warmup on the field.
    Mosey to Rock pile and grab a medium rock.
    With this being anniversary of 9/11 we had a 9/11 themed beat down.

    10 no cheat ‘mericans and 11 burpees
    3 sets of 11 reps with a rock of stuff
