Pants are for work

Pants are for work

16 PAX broke through the gloom on a 23 degree morning to head into a 12 round prize fight beat down.  Everyone except YHC showed up in full pants.  It isn’t THAT cold.  Pants are for work, not working out.  My wife and her friends wear pants working out.

COP:

A quick mosey followed by 25x each SSH, IW, and Mountain Climbers.

Run down the field to grab the Birthday presents.  (cinder blocks brought for #TheMatrix one year party).  Run with blocks to the track on the other side of campus.  Where the 12 rounds of beating were posted on the lamp post.   Partner up.

Round 2:  100 Shoulder presses, between partners.  Each run 2 laps with the block.

Plank-o-Rama

Carry the blocks back to the tree line.  Jail break back to cars for COT.

Moleskine:

12 rounds turned out to be an aggressive goal and the PAX got TKO’ed by the clock after Round 8.  We did sneak in the Dolly Block presses on the way back to the trees to drop of the presents.  OT and Lobster Roll led the charge the whole way.

I’ll have pull this out for a Saturday when we have the full hour to complete it.   It was great work out there, everyone pushed hard, and the format gave everyone a chance to keep moving in the cold, and the short track and central pain station kept the group tight.  Always an honor to plan for and lead a great group of men.  Thank for the opportunity.

Great send off by Dolphin.

Announcements:

Most of the usual.  Look for details on a Go Ruck Heavy event in March near Asheville.
