Rainy With a Chance of Merkins

January 29, 2018

WHEN: 01/29/2018
QIC: Appomattox
PAX: Foghorn Leghorn, Gordo, Hux, Shooter, Right Swipe, EZ Pass, Easy Rider, TB (FNG), Uzi, Subprime, Slug, MARTA, Blackball

A forecast of rain meant that Right Swipe braved his EC 5k solo, while 14 PAX (including YHC) assembled in the gloom for a modified campus tour: visits to 5 of UNC-Chapel Hill’s 12 libraries.

Warm-Up:

SSH x 20

Imperial Walkers x 10

WMH x 10

Arm Circles and Reverse x 10

Harvester x 10

Slooooow Merkins x 10

 

The Thang:

Mosey to the exterior of the Stone Center, home to UNC’s African-American studies department and the corresponding library. Once assembled, PAX divided into two groups. While one group lunge-walked up the ramp, jogged to the stairs, and returned lunge-walking, the other performed a series of exercise, then switched.

Round 1: AMRAP Merkins

Round 2: Balls to the Wall, then AMRAP Drydocks

Round 3: People’s Chair, then AMRAP Bodyweight Squats

YHC had planned to ask Champ whether he had ever studied in each library and assign the PAX burpees accordingly, but as Champ was a no-show, PAX assumed he had never studied there and did 5 burpees.

 

Mosey to the Wilson Library-Science Annex

Dips x 20

Bulgarian Split Squat, x 10 each leg

Dips x 20

BWS x 20

5 Champ-less burpees.

 

Mosey to ramp leading to Polk Place, bear crawl to the top.

With PAX assembled, moved to the wall in front of Wilson for:

Dips x 15

Derkins x 10

BWS x 20

REPEATO

5 more burpees.

 

Mosey to the plaza in front of the Undergraduate Library. PAX then circled up for a DPRK People’s Chair Ring of Fire. PAX held the DPRK PC while, going around the circle, each did 5 BWS in sequence. Followed by 20 dry-docks, 30 more squats, 5 more no-Champ burpees.

 

Mosey to Davis Library for the Davis tunnel bear crawl. Worms fleeing the moist soil made this a hazardous (and somewhat slippery crawl). Finish with 5 more burpees.

 

Mosey back to the AO, finish with Mary: LBCs, Boat-Canoe (in which YHC confused the boat with the canoe), and Heels to Heaven.

 

Moleskine: prayers for Alfie and LP.

 

Welcome FNG TB!
