  • We did the Mash – from Russo

    Pax of 19 (including special guests like Paul Skenes, Creepy Baby, Green Alien, Bear Bird, Spider Man, and the Dude) for a scary good time this morning YHC referred to as the Northshore Monster Mash, with weather in the upper 60s and the sun finally appearing midway through.

    Warmup 10x-15x IC
    – Sealjacks
    – Torso twists
    – Cherry pickers
    – Toe touches
    I honestly can’t remember because I was distracted, laughing way too hard at the alien head bobbing up and down, side to side like it wasn’t even connected. Thank you, QP, for inadvertently providing the hardest I’ve laughed in quite a while.

    Somewhere in the middle was a jump scare (the best part of a horror movie, despite some insisting the best part was “the end”): 10 burpees out of nowhere!

    COT, NOR, Announcements, Prayer. Keep in mind that Akbar has Q next week, there are beatdowns throughout the week, the Turkey Trot is coming up (although Jose is going to leave YHC in the dust with the progress he is making on his runs), and Bushwacker’s camping trip is a week from today. Slack will have more info.

    Thank you all for joining today. It was a blast and we’ll do it again next year. I appreciate each and every one of you.
