13 PAX got stronger this morning playing capture the flag at the historic Battle Of Fort Pain! The Armory had encroached upon our territory and planted their flag, and the battle ensued by the 2 teams trying to out-exercise each other.
PAX: @Lone Star, @Cosmo, @Rudolph, @Ron Swanson, @Three’s Company, @Pancreas, @Toastmaster, @Dizzy Gillespie, @Hot N Ready, @Tiny Dancer, @Foosball, and FNG Chess Club

Q then split the group into 2 teams and attempted to explain how his grand vision of Capture The Flag would work. Turns out I didn't do such a great job.
There were 2 flags, one at each end of the Field Of Pain, each team would gather around their flag and perform the following:
4 rounds of:
– 25 Merkins
– 25 Iron Mike's
– 25 American Hammers
– 25 Burpees

Then mosey to south pavilion for 50 dips (we instead went to the pavilion between the flags, which probably worked out better for time)
Mosey to the other team's flag
Repeat the 4 rounds of Merkins, Iron Mikes, American Hammers, and Burpees
About halfway through the first set, @Pancreas decided to show up. I guess he wanted to give us all a 20 minute head start.
We made it through about the second set at flag #2, where Q called time and the 2 teams took the flags and converge in the middle of the Field Of Pain, where we had enough time for a couple of rounds of the following:
– Run from the flags to the tree (which tree???) at the end of the FOP, then 25 Big Boy Situps
– Run back to the flags for 25 Freddie Mercuries

Prayers for illnesses and family issues for several of us.

Man, that workout was a lot harder than it looked on paper, and took a lot longer too. The Battle Of The Flags was only half of what I had planned, so that means I've got a good one stored up for later!
SYITG! Heidi
