The Thang

This ME revolves around the main island (shaped like a triangle) in the parking lot of The Big House.

We started with 2 fellowship pace laps around the parking island. During these laps, PAX were to find a group of 4 (we had 11 total PAX so two groups of 4, one group of 3)

After 2 laps, PAX were back at side “A” of our island. Spread out on the available curb.
5 Erkins (hands on curb)
5 off-set Merkins (body parallel to curb, 1 hand on, one off of curb)
5 Derkins (feet on curb, hands on parking lot)
5 off-set Merkins (body parallel to curb, 1 hand on, one off of curb)
10 squat dramas while standing on the curb, heels off the curb
10 off-set squats, body parallel to curb, 1 foot on curb and the other on the pavement. PAX were instructed to try and keep the heel of the foot on the curb up off the ground for the entire duration of the off-set squats.
10 squats with our heels on the curb and our toes on the pavement
10 off-set squats, body parallel to curb, 1 foot on curb and the other on the pavement. PAX were instructed to try and keep the heel of the foot on the curb up off the ground for the entire duration of the off-set squats.

Get into small group – Lightning McQueen run around island (group starts at a mosey pace) Front person takes off around the island and can slow down once he caught up to his small group. Then the new front PAX could take off in order to catch the small group. Once all PAX completed their “catch lap”, the small groups were instructed to stop at side “B” of our island.

5 PAX stayed on one side of the parking lane while 6 PAX used the parking spaces on the other side of the parking lane. PAX snaked the parking spaces (up one line, across top of space, down the line, across the bottom of the space, repeat) with 1 burpee before starting a new space. PAX were instructed to continue snaking the spots until 10 burpees had been completed.

PAX stayed in their group of either 5 or 6 for the next movement evolution. Ricky Bobby run for a total of 4 laps around the island. PAX ended at side “C” of our island.

PAX then completed a little Paula Abdul for 8 parking spaces, mode of travel was bear crawl & crawl bear. (Paula Abdul – 2 spaces forward, 1 space back, repeat)

PAX then completed 5 laps around the island. 2 of the 3 sides of the island had cars parked in spaces, 1 side was car free. PAX were instructed to run backwards on the car free side of the island but forwards on the 2 sides with cars.

We were now back to our starting positions on the island and we ended with our same Merkin and squat series as before

Ring of fire – 6 inch hold. We went around our circle and each PAX called out a letter of the alphabet. Everyone traced that letter using the feet

When nothing seems to help, I go and look at a stonecutter hammering away at his rock, perhaps a hundred times without as much as a crack showing in it. Yet at the hundred and first blow it will split in two, and I know it was not that last blow that did it, but all that had gone before.
