A pax of 6 gathered in the first cold morning (though Drysedale still had on shorts) of the season to get a head start on working off all the food we plan on devouring over the next seven days.  2 others, Smokie and an FNG, joined 5 minutes after we started, but the FNG didn’t “enjoy” the workout so he went to take a nap in the car…they don’t call it J-Town Beat Down for nothing!!  Smokie refused to let us name him until he finishes a workout…who needs enemies with friends like that!  Before the workout the Q posed a trivia question: “What is the month and year of the first official Thanksgiving?”  After moseying around the campus, we did the following exercises to “learn” the answer.

 

Warm – A – Rama

11 Burpees – OYO

16 – Windmills

21 – Side Straddle Hops

 

11 – Burpees – OYO

16 – Sun gods

21 – Prayer Squats

 

11 – Burpees OYO

16 – Imperial Walkers

21 – Hillbillies

 

The pax then moseyed to the upper parking lot where Q had six stations laid out on a 1/3 mile circuit.  After partnering up and splitting up along the stations, each couple did the three exercises at the station, then moved on to the next station.  Each group went through the stations almost 2 times before time was called.

11 – BURPEES

16 – PLANK JACKS

21 – MERKINS

STATION 2:

11 – JUMP SQUATS

21 – HAND RELEASE MERKINS

STATION 6:

Once time was called, the pax moseyed back to the bball court for Mary’s and to answer the trivia question. (11 / 1621 if you couldn’t figure it out)  The pax was also thankful that the first Thanksgiving wasn’t conducted in December of 1889!!
