YHC had an itch to run around a bit today, so a campus tour sounded good. However, who wants to go visit all those touristy spots? The Old Well. The Carolina Inn. The Quad. Bah. How about the out of the way, hip, cool spots no one goes to? Like that bridge over Manning Drive…

Before the ME, four PAX (Malware, Bogey, Dean Wormer, and TB) did some EC rucking involving some Everest repeats on Tar Heel Warrior Mountain and then a fellowship ruck around campus.

Then, a little warmup at Hooker Fields: SSH, WMH, IW, and slow merkins. Then, the first mosey…

Stop# 1: The Stairs Next to the Student Stores, for an abbreviated Jacob’s ladder

  • Tuck jumps at the bottom (1 to start), burpees at the top (6 to start)
  • Plank it out at the bottom afterward for a little right-arm-high left-arm-high and low-plank-hold goodness
  • and the mosey continued..

Stop #2: The Corner of South Columbia and South Rd, for some AMRAP

  • 1 min dips, 1 min LBCs, 1 min merkins, 1 min squats
  • and the mosey continued..

Stop #3: That Bridge Over Manning Drive Between Skipper-Bowles and the Dental School, for some Usain Bolts

  • A variety of exercises were called including: merkins, dry docks, WWIIs, Freddy Mercury’s, 8 count body builders, squats, American hammers, flutter kicks, etc., while one PAX ran across the bridge and back
  • and the mosey continued..

Stop #4: That Courtyard Under/Behind the Genome Sciences Building Near the Employee Health Office

  • Squat pyramid (10-15-10)
  • and the mosey continued…

Stop #5: Back to Hooker Fields

  • Lots of flutter kicks led by Foodlion

A great morning, everyone crushed it. Welcome to FNG Flea!
