Bernie BLIMPs FTW

AO: Big Creek

When: 2025-02-19

QIC: Ma Bell

PAX (5): DirtyMO, Simple Jack, Spit Valve, Swiper

Preamble:

The skies were angry this morning, my friend - like an old man trying to send back soup in a deli. Perhaps this is why only the studliest of studs made it to Big Creek. 2 were set to pre-run but only 1 made it. Kids amirite. Being a P amirite

Warm-O-Rama:

1K jog around in front of the visitor center and along the new water return pipeline and world's largest pine tree trunk and up the long hill for good mornings, silent count SSH (nailed it!) and merkins

The Thang:

Thang 1: Bernie BLIMPS. Run down an ascending number of signs for progressive BLIMPS, with a Bernie Sanders run back up to the top in between each one. The order of exercises was as follows:
  • Sign 1 - 5 Burpees
  • Sign 2 - 5 Burpees, 10 Lunges
  • Sign 3 - 5 Burpees, 10 Lunges, 15 Imperial Walkers
  • Sign 4 - 5 Burpees, 10 Lunges, 15 Imperial Walkers, 20 Merkins
  • Sign 5 - 5 Burpees, 10 Lunges, 15 Imperial Walkers, 20 Merkins, 25 Plank Jacks
  • Sign 6 - 5 Burpees, 10 Lunges, 15 Imperial Walkers, 20 Merkins, 25 Plank Jacks, 30 Squats
Feel the Bern! Thang 2: Mosey to the upper field with the funny-looking fishing nets on them. Each PAX called an exercise for the remaining PAX to do while he ran the perimeter of the field. YHC had to cut his lap short due to time. First American Run back to the flag to finish right on time. Ish.

COT:

  • Count-a-rama
  • Name-a-rama
  • Announcements (Hillseeker next weekend, Cumming Cold Plunge the following weekend)
  • Prayers - for healing, comfort, support, and strength
  • BOM - YHC took us out
  • Pledge
  • Pic (see Slack)

Naked-Man Moleskin:

  • The P's overall outweighed the D's today in Cumming. But the BDE was strong at Big Creek!
  • The weather dome held. It never rains on F3. Not during a Ma Bell Q anyway. Learn.
  • Thanks for letting me lead this morning. It was my honor.
  • 4 out of 5 at coffeeteria. Solid percentage, and even solider conversation
  • MIAGD, Go Pack, and as always, GTHC
