When Fresh Prince and Green Egg asked YHC to take the Q, they did not know that I had actually been considering volunteering for it anyway. Haven’t been to a merkin Monday in a while so decided to host one. ME inspired by a Misery Q.

10 stops around the end of each building of the school where stairs are, not very far between stops so take a long mosey out to loop road and back. At each stop do a Jacob’s ladder count of merkins totaling 20, with a different movement in between. So 19, then squats, then 1, 18 and 2, etc. Exercises included: sideways supermans, squats, Johnny dramas, Superman Rocketman, windmills, bunny hop up stairs and maybe others YHC doesn’t remember.

Halfway through had a Killer B’s interlude in the field. Note to others, middle gate is not locked, as Rooney showed all us fools hopping the worn down fence trying not slip on icy poles. Killer B’s: Bear crawl across field, on the way back 5 broad jumps and a Burpee, repeat til back to start of the field. YHC almost lost his merlot, sorry for the delay getting back to the action.

Mary: we ran out of time and hustled back to finish our 200 merkins with an 8ct merkin ROF.

Always a privilege to lead a workout. The air was very cold but crisp and fresh. The sky and stars were breathtaking. Lifting up YHC’s coworker and his family who is moving to hospice after a long battle with cancer, thanks for F3 providing a community for men to support one another.
