7 PAX beholden to either Alphabet or Apple (no Dookies today) survived the power outage and showed up for a birthday week Fartlek.  After SSH x 20, cotton pickers x 10, and hillbillies x 10, all IC, we jumped into:

Thang:  8 burpees, then scout run (squats) to Camelia, where we did 8 burpees; mosey the loop back to CCR for 8 burpees; Indian run to the office for LBCs followed by 8 burpees; mosey to CCDr, where we did 8 burpees; snake run to Meadows Park, for 8 more burpees; mosey to CCR for 8 burpees; mosey to NBGCC, then AYG to parking lot, for our last (of 64) 8 burpees.

Count and namorama, closed in prayer.  It’s a privilege to be a part of the group and to lead.  Real birthday Q Wednesday!

Pax of 12 posted for some presummer tune-up work.  After mumbling through the mission statement and noting no FNGs we moved into SSH and cotton pickers.  An indian run to Meadows Park led the Pax to a P90x Ab workout of more than 300 excercises to burn off some pork bellys.  Sufficiently warm we completed the loop with a mosey back to the club just in time for a hard stop at 6:15.  Appreciate the opportunity to lead.
