We went north on the Elgin Branch of the Prairie Path.
Moleskin: The Q noted that he arrived on time to ao_ground_zero, even though he had been showing up a minute or two late in the previous weeks. Why? Because as Q, he held himself accountable for arriving at the AO early. We are capable of showing up on time and being more responsible than believe we are.

The Thang:
We rifle carried (or otherwise carried in any manner) our coupons around the path stopping at all light posts (3 blockees per) and bench (15 coupon curls per). We stopped midway for a non-coupon break of SSH, squats, goofballs, etc.
Once we got back to the flag we did a few quick derkin/mosey circuits and ended it with some Mary (ring of fire style).
Fun was had by all.
