The thing:
YHC was inspired by a four corners exercise AND a catch me if you can routine that was
done recently at the Vortex. Thoughts of fusion ensued, and so we tried and mostly
succeeded in a new-to-me-at-least thing of “four corners catch me if you can” (YHC needs
help with naming things …)

Part 1: The idea was that we would split up into each corner, set up as:
– corner 1, merkins x 20
– corner 2, squats x 30
– corner 3, burpees x 10
– corner 4, Carolina dry docks x 15

When a group caught up to the one in front, the ones that were there first planked and
waited. Quickly two groups formed, chasing each other around the corners. Buffay was
*so* excited by this he urged the group I was in to new heights, and eventually we
caught the other group.
Game over. It was a workout. And the bonus part about it was that we did a lot in a
short amount of time, which meant we had lots of time for part 2.

Part 2: partner stairs thing (seriously, naming things is hard!). Partner up at the
bottom of the parking deck, run to the opposite stairwell and up to the top deck. Booyah
merkins x 15 when you meet, then continue down the stairs your partner just came up to
meet back up at the bottom deck where we did 10 burpees. Rinse and repeat four times for
a total of 60 booyah merkins and 40 burpees. YHC was delighted to look around and see
all the smiling faces at the end.

Part 3: Ricky Bobby up the parking deck to the top, with Buffay leading us in manmakers,
2 lots of 10. There was much rejoicing.
