Two PAX woke up the rooster to do an EC ruck prior to this morning‘s main festivities. A third PAX leg joined promptly at 5:45. A three legged stool was born. A medicine ball appeared from out of Yanni’s magical trunk of junk.

warm up

pointy triangular things:

10 abe vigodas (slow windmills)
10 diamond merking IC

circular things:

10 arm circles, to and fro
10 knee circles
head rolls OYO

Shapes
mosey through a square-sh box of gritty dark urban pittsboro streets doing indian run, pass the sphere until a triangle of cones is found, awaiting in a parking lot, each precisely 30 yards apart.

the dreaded bearmuda triangle of pittsboro commences:

PAX, as a group, execute one burpee at the first cone. Bear crawls to the next. 2 burpees at the second cone. Bear crawl to the last cone. (The first cone?) 3 Burpees. No one was lost in the Bearmuda Triangle. It’s a miracle.

Mosey (with sphere) down more squarish streets until a circle is found. Not the courthouse circle, but nearby at the northwest corner. It’s more of a triangle really. There are three points to this star… The ball is deposited at the center.

Wave of merkins. Each PAX executes 1 merkin, proceeding in a circle, plank till the wave comes around (which is rather quickly with only 3 PAX!) then do 2. Repeat, the wave grows larger and slower until each PAX does 10 merkins!

Pointy Bear Crawl Diamond Ball Thing: Each PAX starts at the edge of the circle. Bear Crawls to the ball. Gets onto the ball (somehow) with both hands, does 1 Merkin (diamondish) Bear crawl back to position. Then the next PAX executes. Around and up till 5 merkins are executed. Somewhere in here, the PAX were catcalled from a passing car, with hearty encouragement to “do PT, devil dogs!” or something of the like…

The sphere is picked up. Mosey to yet another park to the NE of the courthouse.

Some amount of dips
10 Box Jumps
10 leg ups. each side.

The ball keeps rolling, towards the government center.

Dips. Derkins?

Then to the Circle Circle of Circle City itself. The PAX start at the east side of the courthouse. An exercise is executed, then the pax sprint, 1/4 of the circuit to the next entrance, with one lucky PAX carrying the medicine ball.

Burpees,
Squats
Some other exercise
There is some bear crawling down stairs, where all PAX emerge unhurt, with all teeth intact!
Medicine Ball American Hammer (Russian Twist) Handoff Thang with three PAX in line (Nice Call, Minecraft!)

Mosey with sphere to the north side of the circle:
Bear Crawl Cat Scat: Indian Style Bear Crawl with medicine ball relocated by man at the rear, pick it up, run to the front, deposit the scat. proceed to bear crawl.

We go a distance, thusly.

Back to Page Vernon.

What shape are you in? YHC always thinks there needs to be some meaning in these activities. Some narrative. Some story. Maybe it’s just about getting in shape. Or staying in shape. Or passing the time. Or having something to get up in the mornings for. Who knows? Who cares? It’s just good to be here. Have a good day. Aye!
