During COT, Pax were admonished on the Memorial Day, to not only remember the price that has been paid for our freedoms, but to prepare mentally and emotionally for what may be required in the future.

Our holiday beatdowns usually end with extended Coffeeteria at a local restaurant, but all are currently in Carry Out mode. So we had our first Higgins Tail Gate Coffeeteria.

DATE: May 9, 2020

AO: DeHavilland (Delco Park – Kettering, OH)

Q: Zebra

PAX: Wilson, Goldstar, Swobbles, Tails (WhistlePig, Kooter)

Cuatros Hermanos met me this beautiful but chilly quarantine Ohio morning. We moseyed over to the dock for a little COP: SSHs x 20 IC, Imperial Walkers x 20 IC, Pickin’ Taters x 20 IC,

forward and backward shoulder rolls x 20 IC, Zebra Butt-Kicks x 20 OYO.

The Thang:

This Beatdown is in honor of all 2020 graduates who’ve had their senior year turned upside down. To that end, all rep counts are 20. After the COP, the Q announced the 2020 tribute and 20 rep requirement. We counted off for some Beatdwon delegation purposes. We moseyed around the bike path and took turns calling out exercises at various checkpoints. First checkpoint Tails (Welcome back Kotter!) chose Squats x 20. Second checkpoint was Swobbles (Wobbles but doesn’t fall down) with Merkins with arm extensions (probably a proper name for it but details) x 20. Third stop was Wilson with Lunges x 20. We moseyed back to the Shovel Flags for a quick water break. Then we moseyed to the fourth checkpoint which was Goldstar with Burpees x 20. Tails gave us a 10 count, then me moseyed to the pull-up bars. Oh yeah! Here we did Q choice, you guessed it, Pull-Ups x 20 and Hanging Leg Lifts x 20. Then we moseyed over to the Memorial for our last station. We talked a little Charles Kettering history at his memorial, then wed did One-Legged Squats x 20/leg, Incline Merkins x 20 and Decline Merkins x 20. Lastly, we moseyed back to the Shovel Flags.
