I thought you hated running

August 19, 2017

WHEN: 08/19/2017
QIC: Riggs
PAX: The Exchange, Deep Dish, Food Lion, Moxie, Sweet Tooth, Mooch, Mooch’s 2.0, Riggs, Wild Thing, Snots, Te’o, Johnny 5, Funny Money, Mr. Brady, Crockett, Zig Zag (FNG), Julep (FNG), Low Tide (FNG), Newt, Scrooge McDuck, Cardiac, Kia, Rev Run, Shanks, LARP, Sweater Vest

Several pax did EC today of various types, or so they said.  Te’o and YHC got some rucking done.  Beano did something, saw that YHC was Q, and left (trying not to take it personally).  Several guys were rucking 12 miles at some insane pace.

Anyway, 26 guys shook off the fartsack and made their way to the planted shovel flag at TBL.  Standard disclaimer, introductions of 3 FNGs.

Warmup:
LBAC
Imperial walkers
Air squats
Slow merkins

The THANG:
Jog to the hill, which does not have a name but needs one.
Sprint up the hill, jog to the parking lot.

Tabata time:
Burpees, overhead claps, merkins, body weight squats.  20 seconds on, 10 seconds off.  3 cycles.

Sprint up the hill, jog down the big hill (Jonah Hill?  That sucks…)

Circle up at the soccer field.
All the pax ran from the center to the sideline and then all the way around the field and then back to center, line up in order of finishing.  It paid to be a winner here.  Not in glory, or rest, but in burpees.  1st finisher did 26 burpees, 2nd did 25, 3rd did 24, and so on down to the last place finisher who did one.  After finishing, another lap around.  Next round, merkins.  Next round, air squats.

To the 18 for a bear/gorilla/bear to the midline, other 18, back to midline, sprint back.

Then over to Hill(ary Clinton?) for another sprint up, jog back to center.

20 tuck jumps, 40 jump lunges

Moleskin:
– YHC hates running, but it’s good for you
– Welcome FNGs Zig Zag (from WA, didn’t go to Gonzaga…somehow ended up with zig zag?), Julep (as in mint julep), and Low Tide (as in loves long walks on the beach, or so he claimed)!  Awesome to see this growth in Churham!
– Coco was gone, so there were no announcements.
– Floyd was gone, so merkin form did not need critique.
– Doogie was gone, so there were no known fartsackers.
