This was YHC’s first opportunity to Q with the mighty men of Crypt and the pleasure was all mine. We got in a little Yuletide work this morning with all 3 Fs being very merry and bright on a mild December morning with temps in the low 50s.

Warm-up
Mosey with some high-knees, butt-kickers, and Frankenstiens thrown in for good measure.
LBACs and TTTs
Dasher- Blitzen Runs
At any time other than a few days before Christmas, these little numbers are usually called “last man up runs”. Additionally, since everyone hates when their turn to run to the front comes on a hill, we used one of RBHS’s many steep ascents to give every man the opportunity to run his last man up portion on a hill. You know what they say about misery and company.
Christmas Cards
Everybody loves getting a Christmas card and we exchanged nearly 52 of them this morning with each representing it’s own holiday sentiment:
Red Aces- :30 second high plank
Black Aces- :30 second low plank
Kings- 10 regular merkins
Queens- 10 close hand merkins
Jacks 10 wide arm merkins
Number cards= # of reps with designated exercise for each suit
Hearts= LBCs
Diamonds- Iron Crosses
Spades- Squats
Clubs- 2 count Mountain Climbers
And if this was not enough frivolity, we split into teams for some Christmas trivia. If a team answered a question correctly, they had the pleasure of watching the other team double-down on their reps until the next question.
I very much appreciate the opportunity to Q at Crypt. Great guys, great work ethic, and great 2nd F!

Moleskine:
Lots of good mumble chatter out there. Can you guess which paxs can be credited with these quotes:
“John Grisham, really?? It was John Grisham, that was the answer?? John Grisham!?”
“Was that last card you drew a 6 of hearts or a 12 of hearts?”
