We alway say, “See You in the Gloom!” or SYIG. Today, this was very accurate. There was a dense fog covering the Herndon Road Park, giving our AO an eerie quality as 5 brave PAX rolled in for their Thursday beatdown.

The THANG: Treat Yo’ Self
YHC has a 10k race this weekend and I wanted to save my legs. So I came up with this self-service workout. A whiteboard with instructions on it, well-illuminated, was placed at the playground. PAX were instructed to do each of the listed activities, in any order they wished and then come back and do burpees until the whole group was done.

1. Merkins x 30
2. Burpees x 20
3. Swerkins x 20
4. Air Squats x 30
5. Pull-ups x 10
6. Bicep Curls x 30
7. Overhead presses x 20
8. WWII Situps x 20
9. Flutter Kicks x 20
10. Run to concession stand and do 30 dips at the wall

Once everyone had completed their circuit, YHC announced that we were going to do the circuit again and “It does not pay to be a winner.” The person who finished first (Cardiac, duh) had to add 5 reps to each of above exercises. 2nd place added 4 reps, 3rd place 3 reps, 4th place 2 reps, last place 1 reps. Cardiac was heard saying “Well, that sucks.” Indeed it did. Those few additional reps really added up in the second circuit.

So the group did the 10 exercises again with the additional rep count. Then drop the rock.

Travel to the soccer field. We had 10 minutes left. Just enough time for…..Bearway to Heaven

Bear crawl to the 18yd box, do 1 burpee. Bear crawl back to the end line. Do 2 burpees. Continue until 5 burpees.
