Some comet that hasn't been visible from Earth for 50,000 years was supposed to be swinging by for a night or two about this time. I thought it would be a good idea to head up to Constellation Park to check it out but Mother Nature had other plans with a full blanket of clouds in the sky this morning. Change of plans, let's run down to the old site of #themustang (Pollard Middle School) and take advantage of their massive set of stairs.

WARMUP

The usual stuff… side shuffle hops, willie mays hayes, imperial walkers, harvesters, arm circles, Michael Phelps, etc.

THE THANG

Run down to Pollard (~3/4 mile). Stopped on the way for some slow Squats and shoulder taps.

Once there, we did a couple rounds up and down the stairs to warm up and then did a descending series of Johnny Dramas (20, 15, 10, 5, each IC) with a lap up and down the stairs between each.

Next we partnered up to split a series of core exercises with traveling movements, 2 rounds of each:
1. LBCs w/ lunge walk out, bear crawl back
2. Flutter kicks w/ lunge walk out, bunny hop back
3. Box cutters w/ lunge walk out, gorilla walk back

Finally, we ran the 3/4 mile back to the AO (sadly, it's all uphill on the way back), arriving at 45:06 on YHCs watch. Missed it by that much!
