Six of MIL's finest made it out to learn a little something about Euclidean geometry while challenging our minds and bodies in the lofty pursuit of hypotenuse.

High knees, butt kicks, karaoke * 2, SSH I/C * 20, TS I/C * 15, Cotton picken’ cherry pickers I/C * 15, Mercans I/C * 15
The Thang
Triangles have been known to have three sides, so we stopped at three different stations with moseying in between said stations around the school three times (I love me some symmetry)
Lap 1
-
Pull-ups (10), Knee lifts (5) – at playground in back lot
-
Decline mercan (10 I/C), Dips (10 I/C) – at benches in the forbidden garden
-
Calf raises (30) , CDD (10 I/C) – at stairs near the parking lot
Lap 2
-
Pull-ups, Knee lifts – at playground
-
Incline mercans (10 I/C) , One legged squats (10 each leg) – at benches
-
Incline sit ups with partner (10), Decline double leg raises with partner (10) – at hill by parking lot
Lap 3
-
Repeato of Lap 1
Mary
A veritable sampler platter of exercises across the assembled Pax
-
Mason twist – El Tigre (shocker)
-
Mountain climbers – Pinky (burns)
-
WWII sit-ups – Grip (tough to keep up with his “up”)
-
LBC – 911 (ole’ standby, with legs on the ground for more impact)
-
IST – Double Double (there’s some Mary in there)
-
Plank with some slow ya roll Mercans added in – Natty Lite (internal counting may have been slightly off)
-
Box cutter – El Tigre (or “2 right angled triangles cutter” in keeping with the Pythagorean theme)

Does it feel cooler to you?
-
Pax calls BS on the recently completed F3 Games. Apparently there was not the expected element of competition, so look for another American Gladiator type installment in the future
-
Q really likes the pull-up / knee lift combo platter, which was why we did it thrice
-
Right angle triangle measurements around the school were actually shaped more like an ellipse or perhaps even an ovoid. Parents, please try and avoid the opioid ovoid
-
What was the best part of your summer vacation? Thongs on the beach in cadence that showed up as regular as clockwork. Is that what the sunglasses were for?
-
Where's the Frisbee golf course?
-
Vega has been MIA as of late. Pax theories include either a bad auto deal with Oktoberfest (Serbian transactions are rarely at arm’s length) or disappointment at having missed the boil lancing (aka, the hollandaise extraction)
-
There is no better impromptu prayer-er than 911. Q admittedly needs some work in that area
-
No father should let their child go off to college without a frank and open dialog with their child on the dangers of butt chugging. Surprisingly, there is brand loyalty in certain butt chugging circles

It’s both an honor and a privilege to lead this fine group of men
