America turns 244!

8 PAX met in The gloom to celebrate America’s 244th birthday. And what better way to do that than with some good ole Americans, 244 of them to be exact! (Well close enough) accompanied by 4 rounds of 7 excerceses (7/4) and capping it off with some freedom frisbee! Here’s how it went.WARMORAMA: as most of the packs were either on a double or triple down already, we cut the running from the warm up and substituted the pledge of allegiance. Then we proceeded with the usual, SSH, IST, windmills etc.THE THANG: We proceeded to find some blocks, and since YHC is a gracious Q, we found a spot of shade to circle up in. The plan was simple, seven exercises, four rounds, lap between each with ‘Mercans at the corners. However, without a winky, and on the tail end of a triple down, YHC was particularly suggestible to a few audibles. Here was the plan, you’d have to be there to know what really happened ;)Oh say can you Curl (full curls)Star SpangledSkull CrushersRed, White and Glutes DeadliftWW2 Sit-upsStars and SquatsJohn Deers (a.k.a Lawnmowers, very American)Shooting Stars/Bombs Bursting in Air (squat jump and spread arms and legs)All 16, 14, 12, 10 (Q may have audibled the reps down a bit… you’ll never know!)Between each set one lap with 10 ‘Mericans at each corner (40 total). We shortened the lap on the last 2, and ended teaming up on the ‘Mericans to finish em off. We eventually got to 240.MARY: Wit 15 minutes left we headed over to the field for some Freedom Frisbee (a.k.a Ultimate Frisbee). 4v4. Each point the scores did 1 ‘Merican and the losers 1 Burpee (which it turns out are awfully similar). 4 points brought us to 244 ‘Mericans and Recover Recover. The winners won and the losers lost, but all had fun and left completely exhausted. (Everyone washed their hands after for those concerned about safety)MOLESKINE:- YHC learned a valuable lesson on how important winkis are, especially at the tail end of a Triple Down!- While our country is going through some rocky times, I hope everyone is still greatful for what we do have and how good we have it. The freedom to openly complainin itself should not be taken for granted.God bless you and your families, stay safe and enjoy your Independence Day!
