YHC was on the calendar for next week (Feb 9th), but Nitro reached out with a request to swap weeks due to some potential travel.  The swap was happily made before finding out my newly inherited date was Groundhog Day (Feb 2nd).  Even Better!!!

Warm-Up

  • Side Shuffle Hops x10 IC
  • Imperial Walkers x10 IC
  • Slow Squats x10 IC
  • Slow Merkins x10 IC
  • Mountain Climbers x10 IC

 

The Thang

Jog to the bottom of the hill for the following routine:

  • 5 Burpees
  • Run to the top of the hill
  • 5 Burpees
  • Run to the bottom of the hill
  • 5 Burpees
  • Run to the top of the hill
  • 5 Burpees
  • Run back to StartEx

 

Mary

  • Little Baby Crunches x15 IC
  • Freddy Mercury x15 IC
  • American Hammers x15 IC

Then Groundhog Day hit and we repeated the whole thing a second time.  Then Groundhog Day hit again and we repeated the whole thing a third time.  The third time we finally chose goodness and exited the loop.  We finished up with Boxcutters x15 IC.

COT

Lots of good morals to learn from the classic Bill Murray film Groundhog Day.  YHC chose to emphasize the idea that we choose our own reality.

Moleskin

Paper Jam was expecting an FNG today so YHC had started thinking through some great Groundhog Day-related names (despite that fact that Punxsutawny is already taken).  Ideas included:  ‘Sonny & Cher’, ‘I Got You Babe’, ‘Ryerson’ and ‘Phil & Ned’ (a play on Bill & Ted). Unfortunately, the FNG was a no-show, but if he shows up at a later date and I’m posting that day I may still recommend one of my great name ideas.  The PAX also thought of the new name ‘Smothered and Covered’.  Keep that one in your back pocket for another day, too.
