3 HIMs took the red pill to brave the cold, windy, damp streets of Mandeville.
Round Robin:
4 sets of max out pull ups, 10 big boys. Bear Crawl to the street.
Run to the lake front, stop at each intersection for 10 reps of different styles of merkins, followed up with 10 reps of a core exercise there and back. One loop around the the marsh with wife pleasers at the end. COT with Hammer praying us out with intentions of the families affected by the terrorist attack in New Orleans and the mental health of everyone.

Omaha, Omaha, Omaha – from Jose10k
The cool front came in and 4 HIMs took the red pill this morning. Steve had to drop out, so YHC took the Q. Which included some warm-ups, then we took off and ran the usual loop. The other 3 took one more lap around the subdivision, and I went straight back to head to work. Movie night at Wacker’s house tonight! SYITG

Give the man the credit! – from Shooter
This BB is being written to make sure the man gets his due. You know what I am talking about when I say the commitment of Jose10k is undeniable and he will not only post but Q and he deserves nothing but respect..
It’s a run AO so you know what we did..
Followed by a little Mary!!Appreciate the post and until the next time

Ruck was the right call!! – from Shooter
The Gloom was crisp and cool, so 7 HIMs decided to take the pill to get after it.
Warmup was a mix of 10 & 15 IC of Imperial walkers, Hillbillies, Grass grabbers, seal claps, seal jacks, toe touches, butt kicks and slow squats..
YHC decided to join Ringo as he was the only Rucker around.. Wise choice by the Q for two reasons. One was the soreness lingering from the previous beatdown at the Gipper with Dinghy but the second was the best as it allowed me to catch up in chatter on how things have been with Ringo..
Sent the gazelles out on the traditional route with two loops and this included the savage Jose10k. I heard in closing he has joined forces with Steve for the Turkey trot and will be present Turkey morning at the Scramble as well.. What discipline and dedication is all I can say..
All arrived back at the same time 0555 where we dropped to our 6 and completed E to Ks, flutters and penguins ending with a PAX choice ring around the circle of shoulder taps, plank jacks, Peter Parker’s, merkins, groiners and donkey kicks..
Closed with the FINAL Turkey announcement for the Scramble, COT.
Until the next Gloom!!!

Bleeping Walls of Jericho, VQ – from Ballz Deep
As the light dappled across lake Ponchartrain, it was clear in @Chewy’s eyes he regretted posting. In fact, on this day, @Ballz Deep’s VQ, I think he regretted EH’ing me 9ish months ago.
Arm circlesx10forward/x10backward, hillbilly walkersx10, ass grabbersx10 (thanks @Jose 10K I need to practice that Exicon!), windmillsx10, and side straddle hopsx25 for the warmup. I empathize with @Brexit, as English is his second language, in learning cadence. That stuff is hard!!
Mosey’d to The Shaft, where accelerated fitness awaited us.
Main Workout: Shuttle Run “bleep test” and Wall of Jericho.
Shuttle Run level + Wall of Jericho had to equal 12. i.e. – level 5 shuttle run finish, leaves you with 7 rounds of the Wall of Jericho workout. Wall of Jericho (7 exercises of 7 reps +1 lap around cones and The Shaft) were Plank Jacks, SMKs (2 is 1), Burpees, Air Squats, Mountain Climbers (2 is 1), American Twists (2 is 1), and Flutter Kicks (2 is 1).
A round of 7s (mtn climbers and flutter kicks) plus Indian Run and a plank-0-rama closed us out.Chance, Buttsplice’s nephew, joined us! FNG named WetSocks, for his astounding ability to run from the Shaft to Homebase in a pair of socks.
P.S – I believe I’m forgetting the 16th PAX. I’m sorry. Reply if you remember, and I’ll edit/add you.
SYITG!
