Mr. Worldwide & The New Normal

AO: BombSquad

Conditions: 67 degrees, heavy downpour Just before start then drizzle on and off

A Flurry of late night texts went around the AO about the possibility of a beatdown today. ERC, who can no longer go to his gym stated since the shutdown began that he will be at The Village or BombSquad at regular start times if anyone wanted to join him.

Brown Bag wanted to know if YHC was going to run, attend a beatdown, or just f*rtsack?  YHC was leaning towards a run, however, there were already 3 HC so Brown Bag & YHC agreed to do a beatdown at CFCC. Brown Bag designated the start time as 5:30.

Just after confirming with Brown Bag, Humpback asked if YHC would be joining him and ERC at CFCC at 5:15, sure why not (#GetALittleExtra).

Just before 11pm, Sunshine texted YHC about working out and YHC let him know that he had his pick of start times at CFCC. So with Sunshine’s HC it would make 3 PAX at 5:15 or 3 PAX at 5:30 (YHC planned to run solo if Sunshine posted at 5:15, then meet Brown Bag at 5:30; If Sunshine posted at 5:30, YHC would work out with ERC & Humpback). Seemed like a simple plan, right?

No one discussed Qing this thing (YHC personally did not prepare anything formal), however, one thing was certain, there would be Great Music! (Brown Bag brings the Rock, Humpback brings the Grundge, and ERC brings the Dance/Techno/Pop!!).

When YHC awoke this morning, I received a text from Brown Bag stating that our start time would also be 5:15. OK so at this point we were 1 PAX over the government limit of 3 people. Sometimes you’ve got to go with the flow (#RuleBreaker)

Not only did the 4 above mentioned PAX arrive in the Gloom, but Rubber came barreling in, too!! This was now starting to get interesting!!

Humpback took charge of the music and ERC got the pain started!

Mosey to Large Parking Lot. As we mosey, ERC picked up a white board from his car. He said he didn’t prepare anything for this morning’s beatdown but this conveniently placed whiteboard was covered in writing and suspiciously looked like a wienke!

The THANG:

Rubber Pain’ts The Lines: All PAX stayed 6-10 feet apart and followed the leader as he showed us how to Mosey, Karaoke, Bearcrawl, Skip to My Lou, Back Pedal, Sprint, and Side Shuffle across the parking lot.

Announcements: Dragonboat Rescheduled for Sept 19, 2020.

YHC led in Prayer: Prayers for ERC’s cousin, Shane, and his family. Prayers for all effected directly or indirectly by Covid19.

Moleskin: #SocialDistancing is feeling less awkward. We consciously need to fight the urge to fist bump or run along side another PAX, but everyone is taking it seriously and making adjustments. T-Claps to ERC & Rubber for taking the lead today; T-claps to Humpback for his music selection especially his second half Pitbull Playlist! #MrWorldwide really hit to spot! T-claps to Brown Bag for the accountability.

Aye!
