I don’t know how many times I’ve posted at Vets, but when I have we’ve generally been confined the big parking lot & baseball fields area. In preparation for this Q I wanted to see what else the park has to offer so I went Wednesday afternoon & scouted things out. What I discovered was that when the construction is completed on this park Vets will be one of the most badass AOs we have.

I gave the disclaimer & we were off on a mosey over to the basketball court for COP.
COP

- (20) SSH IC
- (20) Grass Grabbers IC
Enough with the warm-up, we had things to do so it was off on a mosey through the construction to the back side of the park where Thang 1 was waiting. (the hill in the daytime vs the gloom)
Thang 1: 11s along the Long Runway
- At the bottom of the hill: (1) Jump Squat
- Run up to the top of the hill: (10) Burpees
- Run over to paved trail & back down the hill
- At the bottom of the hill: (2) Jump Squats
- Run to the top of the hill: (9) Burpees
- And so on until do (10) Jump Squats/(1) Burpee
Early finishers were instructed to get started on the following Mary until the 6 finished.
- (100) Flutter Kicks
- (75) LBCs
- (50)
- (25) Big Boys
Once the PAX was all finished we took a moment to recover by walking up the hill picking up the cones along the way. Upon getting to the top of the hill we moseyed back over to the basketball court for Thang 2. Due to the construction taking place in the park there are 12-15 picnic tables all placed along the sides of the court. When I was scouting out the park the other day the tables were arranged like this & it was like a sign that I had to use them in my WO.
Thang 2: Picnic Time AMRAP
Round 1
- Bear Crawl from one sideline to the other sideline, do (10) Dips
- Bear Crawl back to the other sideline, do (10) Decline Merkins
- I told the PAX to rinse & repeat as many times as possible for an undisclosed amount of time (5 minutes)
Round 2
- Partnered up, P1 does step-ups on the picnic table while P2 side shuffles to the other sideline, do (10) Incline Merkins
- P2 Side shuffles back to other sideline & then partners switched
- I told the PAX to rinse & repeat as many times as possible for an undisclosed amount of time (5 minutes)
After Round 2 we moseyed back to the flag getting there at 0613. We circled up, got on our 6 & did (20) Big Boys IC to close out the WO.

Intentions: There were many said, unsaid, but specifically thoughts & prayers with Banana Bread.
I took it to the SkyQ thanking him for another day & the opportunity to lead these HIMs for 45 minutes of their day. It’s always a humbling experience to get to Q.
Nino out.
