Due to some excuse involving something, Walleye asked if YHC would give up his prime pre-New Years Eve Beat Down and take today’s Q instead. Being the team player, YHC said “sure thing!” Besides, YHC isn’t sure if he will be in NOLA for that pre New years Eve Hoe Down. Look at that, it all works out in the end.
It was good to be back at the Mothership, having visited the Highland Park AO the week before. No snow on the ground, but still cold. It was 0630 and 9 Pax joined YHC to better themselves, making 10 Pax at the Shovel Flag brought by Kimchi. Speaking of Shovel Flags…….have you seen what the Northshore did? We gotta step it up! Tool, I’m stopping off at the store in the near future and we’re gonna get busy! Anyways, it’s cold….
YHC knew exactly what would warm the Pax up! But first, the Disclaimer…and then
Mosey to the Great Lawn
Arm Circles IC x 10 back and 10 forward
SSH x 5….followed by
10 Burpees OYO (YHC heard cheers of joy, that’s the story so chosen and shall be told as such)
SSH x 5
9 Burpees OYO
SSH x 5
8 Burpees OYO
You get the idea….7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2…..followed by a twist

Mosey toward NOMA
Circle up on the lawn near the tracks for
Ring of Fire #1
All Pax get in low plank and each Pax takes turns completing 5 merkins and then getting back into plank position.
Ring of Fire #2
Bear crawl around the circle clockwise. Get back into the low plank position. Each Pax completes 1 Burpee, then returns to plank. The Pax did 5 full revolutions. It was interesting going from plank to burpee then back to plank.
Mosey to the walking path around the lake near NOMA for the Bataan Death March!

Congrats to Kimchi on the latest 2.0 in the oven.
There were no Pax over 49, or under 33 at the Mothership today. No Respect, No Hate!
F3 Christmas Party next Tuesday at Urban South. Start time was debated this morning, 1830 or 1900. Check your email to be sure, or watch for announcement on Group Me. Either way, find a way to get there, and bring a toy for Operation Sweet Tooth! M’s and 2.0’s are welcomed.
Da Parish has a Christmas Ornament Exchange Party going on today. Hit him up for details.
Baby Face is going to do 1000 Burpees for Charity! Watch for ways to donate. YHC demands video evidence!
Next Mothership is Triple Shift’s Respect Q! You don’t want to miss that one!
Great Coffeteria with Kimchi, Triple Shift and Mahatma. Kimchi had to rub in the Army-Navy game from last week.
Do what you can to support the Baton Rouge F3 launch. Clown cars head up Saturday, so jump on one!
10 Happy Pax after all we did, including 94 Burpees. If YHC had been counting, we would have done 6 more!
Thanks for joining me today, and for allowing me to be a part of F3.
