At roughly 6:52?? YHC was a ittle concerned of a solo exploration of Bailey Park, a sad clown kind of morning. A luxurious looking white Audi A4 arrived shortly after and our very own Waffle House popped out, explaining his gray Audio wagon was in the shop and the sweet looking A4 was a loaner. Just a few minutes before the workout started, more PAX began to flow in….awesome. Bijioux and his 2.0 Sonic decided to partake in the offering as did Titan and our former Nantan, SwingState.
YHC admits to trying his best to follow the daily stoic of not comparing himself to other men, but the hair envy immediately kicked in. When you get Swingy and Bijioux in one workout, that's some hair which rivals Clooney and Pitt.
FNG-1 was Sonic (Bijioux's 2.0)
The Thang
Warm-a-rama with a mentioned disclaimer began with SSH, Toy Solder, Slow Windmill, Long Snapper, Donkey Kicks and Mountain Climbers.
A short mosey to the bottom of the hill towards the track to collect a rock was next with curls, shoulder presses and skull crusshers. Next up was a triple round of run to the top of the hill to playground, and back down with a ladder of 10 squats, with 10 merkins, 10 dry docks, and 10 diamond merkins.
Mosey to playground with a triple round of 10 pulls, and 10 dips on benches.
Mosey down the hill towards back of park adjacent to frisbee golf course. A brief mobility moment was performed preceded by planking, right arm up, left arm up, etc.
Mosey further down BRP towards hill which approaches tennis courts.
Performed 3 sets of bear crawl up hill and merkins, dry docks and diamond merkins at the bottom.
Mosey back towards playground with a 50% effort half way up hill and sprint the remaining way to the top.
Mosey to the track where the Commander Run was introduced honoring YHC's favorite football team, previously the Washington Redskins. Commander Run 1 lap on track and stopped as it appeared Bijioux had a small pain….hope he's ok
Proceed across field towards stairs where calf stretches and calf raises were performed and a few laps up and down the stairs to keep heart rate high.
Procceed towards back of Bailey Middle School to perform dips, incline merkins, and decline merkins.
Proceed back to starting point and finished with MARY.

- SwingState and Sonic got some serious wheels as shown in the sprint up the hill towards the playground…awesome effort there!
- Special AO for YHC as this is where I was originally name in Fall of 2011 by Moses.
- Funniest moment was hearing Sonic laugh about Titan pooping twice before workouts.
- WaffleHouse reminded YHC twice that hamstrings are behind quads but YHC admitted he was low on Omega 3's and mind wasn't quite as sharp. Also kept YHC honest to put rocks back where they were found, otherwise we were heading back in a different route…..thanks Waffle!
- Awesome discussion at Summit Birkdale coffeeteria with Gray Ghost and Titan about running, public schools, and family
- Sonic announced after 8 years with his corn snake, it was rehomed. Sounds like SwingState's 2.0 wants a corn snake and YHC would be honored and obliged to help in that acquisition.
- YHC encouraged the group to hit Potts Barbershop in Cornelius after a recommendation from SwingState…Potts is now a historic landmark in Cornelius.
- Thanks for closing us in prayer Bijioux!
Truly honored that each of you came out to BRP for my first Q there in quite a while.
Humbly, Possum
