Or more accurately, killing time to save ourselves. To be precise, we killed time in between sprints to catch our breath to save ourselves.
We executed a reverse pyramid of sprints with bundles of death merkins in between. Did I say death merkins? I meant happy merkins – quiet, happy merkins because there was trace mumblechatter, which usually is a sign of jubilant yet silent enjoyment of exercise.
Warm-up:
Lap around the track with apple-pickers, butt-kickers, high-knees, shuffles, karaoke, 50% sprint for 100 and 75% sprint for 100. followed by air squats and Willie Mays Hayes.
Time to press play:

  • 50 meter sprints X 8 with 5 seconds rest in between each (Riggs smoked everybody)
    • 100 Merkins: 25 reguLAR, 25 diamond, 25 wide, 25 fingertip
  • 100 meter sprints X 6 with 10 seconds rest in between each (T”eo won most of these with competition from few others)
    • 75 Merkins: 25 reguLAR, 25 prong (left then right leg up), 25 diamond
  • 400 meter sprints X 2 with 30 seconds rest after the first, 60 seconds after the second (YHC took the title on these but T”eo was breathing down his neck on each)
  • 800 meter sprint X 1

And we”re gassed!
Mary:
