Planned to bust this one out last week at TR, but feet still jacked up from Bragg Heavy (Uzi I ain’t), so Floyd was kind enough to swap. Idea was to share a few samplings of some of the PT at the event. Did advise long sleeves and pants on Slack, but a couple of PAX didn’t get the memo, which made the low crawls uncomfortable. Embrace the suck and all that.

Great fellowship amongst YHC, Castaway, One Direction, Pallino and occasional/reluctant rucker WeedNFeed during EC ruck.

YHC planned some partner work, and warmup started with 10 PAX, so bemoaned the tardy arrival of Awesome Baby and assessed 5 burpees accordingly. Toward end of warmup YHC’s spirits rose as a set of even tardier headlights approached. So glad for even numbers, no burpees! Sent PAX for peanut lap while picked up the six. But discovered Wreck It had brought along 2.0 and TR and Piranha regular Lone Ranger, so we had to do 5 penalty burpees in the darkest part of the peanut for the odd numbers and tardiness. It all worked out tho. Glad to have everyone, of course, and T-claps to LR for crushing these workouts with his old man.

There was one coupon per PAX, so everybody grabbed one and headed to soccer field. Set coupons down and moseyed to midfield. 5 more burpees for lackadaisicality. Time for Cadre Chuy Specials: High knees at command of go, then on your belly, on your back, on your belly, then back up to go, and on and on til YHC got sick of it. Great enthusiasm from the PAX, and heart rates were up.
Then it was time for alternating mountain climbers and flutter kicks, random counts, basically til YHC got sick of it, did about three rounds of each. Again, applaud the enthusiasm. Then bear crawl back to coupons.
Turned into a bit of a poop show here, totally Q’s fault, but we all managed. Everyone but Lone Ranger partnered up, size mattered. Each partner set got two coupons. Everyone did 10 burpees with their partner, then buddy carry to goal box for 10 more burpees. The carrier then sprinted back for coupons and farmer carried them. The carryee then buddy carried his guy back home, then ran back for coupons, then everyone finished with 10 more burpees. T-claps to the PAX who had Lone Ranger doing burpees, merkins and flutters as this went on, as YHC forgot.
Then time for everyone’s favorite, low crawl entire field. Felt bad for Hook and his 2.0 FNG, the soon-to-be-dubbed McEnroe, as they were wearing shorts. But we all made it, with early finishers picking up the six.
Return trip started out with more low crawls (hooray) then the classic, I’m Up, He Sees Me, I’m Down thing.
20 merkins together, then we all linked arms for 20 team sit-ups. Fun. Grabbed coupons and returned home for
