It was a Birthday Celebration for Quaker Crater this morning. No Sad clowns were invited just 19 jolly ol’ Nateville PAX. It has been a great year at the “Crater” with solid and consistent Quaker groupies. Here is how the celebration panned out.
Warm-A-Rama
- SSH X 20
- Sun Gods X 15 (Forwards and Backwards)
- Merkins X 20
- Mountain Climbers X 20
Mosey to the library bridge – Pay Toll
- Dips X 30
- Derkins X 20
- At this point the PAX were asked to think of the favorite and least favorite exercise (will come into play during the Thang)
Head to the library
- Lunge walk 25 yards
- Bear Crawl 25 yards
- Backwards Mosey to the top of hill
Thang
The library parking lot has three grass medians, Pax were broken up into three groups and instructed to perform two exercises at one end then rotate to other end and do the next set of exercises. All exercises were to be done with a 20 count – OYO. Rinse and repeat until Q calls time. Once time is called, group rotates to the next median. Rotation time between each median was four minutes.

Upon completion of the Thang, it was time to head back to the school but a light mosey back would be not be as exciting as sprinting. The PAX were instructed to run to the bottom of library hill and hold up at bridge then sprint from bridge to the stop sign. Run 70-80% from stop sign to top of hill (warm up area), plank until 6 is in then fast mosey to shovel flag.
