Preface: Brotox had other duties that kept him from leading The Big House, so I switched queues with him. I originally planned a very challenging course, but needed to modify significantly because of the presence of 2.0’s, and because Maraschino decided to strap on a Jansport during warm-up.
ME: Stinky Pete arrived a bit late, but I cut down the penalty burpees to five because Maraschino made the wise decision not to wear his borrowed backpack. However, he then strapped on a backpack in defiance, which slowed him down. Penalty burpees were delivered later for his bad choice.
Wm-up: Gas pumps, Pulsing Squats, Bonnie Blairs, and then a quick run around the traffic circle
- PAX counted off — one group performed People’s Chair, while the other ran around the clubhouse x2
- Bear Crawl Jack Webb’s to 10 IC; then Bernied to a park
- Ran horseshoe twice — 15 Ab Circles (from left, then right), 15 IC pulsing squats, 15 IC Peter Parkers, 15 IC Pulsing Merkins x 2
- Moseyed to another hill; 15 drydocks; Bernied up a hill–15 Dips IC then we made our way back to AO
- We stopped for 15 IC Pulsing Merkins
- Back for two rounds of Balls to the Wall and People’s Chair
- one round of Mary
Announcements: Zook is leading two workouts next week (The Jag and TMT)
COT: Catskill, Zook, and I were still a bit tired from our record-setting effort at The Jag yesterday. With the right goals in mind, and consistency, humans can accomplish a lot. Obviously, we have to be careful not to overload our bodies in pursuit of said goals.
