The Thang

Part 1: Paula Run-dul

We wanted to take the idea of the Paula Abdul that Shake It has terrorized PAX with over the years and apply it to some hill running. At the bottom of Chubb’s Hill, PAX run forward 2 light posts and complete 10 mountain goats. PAX then run downhill one light post and complete 10 true americans. The process repeats until PAX are at the top of Trailwood.

Part 2: Broad Jumps and EKG Merkins

From the bottom of Chubb’s, make your way to the 3rd light post by broad jumping. After every 5 broad jumps, stop and do 5 EKG merkins (PAX are welcome to do traditional merkins). We then sprinted the rest of the way to the top after we picked up the six.
