Winterplace

Posted on behalf of Winterplace

11 Pax including a FNG posted to the best AO in the Area 51/Metro neutral zone for a burpee-athon sandwiched between running and field work:

The Thang:

Mosey to parking circle for the necessary lunges, shuffles, butt kicks, and high knees to warm up those cold (i.e., old) legs.

Proceed to COP for:

  • 25 side straddle hops
  • 15 slow, deep squats
  • 10 hand-release merkins
  • 10 burpees (real ones, with good form)
  • Line up in end zone for 11s of hand-release merkins and burpees
  • 1 hand-release merkin, run length of the field, 10 burpees, run back
  • 2 hand-release merkins, run length of the field, 9 burpees, run back
  • continue until you hit 10 merkins, and 1 burpees

Partner Up

Partner A runs the length of the field and back while Partner B does the called exercise.  Then flap jack:

  1. Jumping squats
  2. Long, slow flutter
  3. you guessed it – hand-release burpees

The Qs wanted to make sure the Pax got their money’s worth today, so then ran a suicide drill to polish off the lungs.

DD brought us home with another set of 11s on the stairs:

  • 10 monkey humpers
  • hop up steps two at a time
  • 1 hill billy followed by a squat
  • Return to bottom, repeat 9/2, 8/3, …

The Pax were about half-way through this set of 11s as we ran out of time and returned to home base for name-o-rama.

Moleskin (with editorial by Baracus):

  • Very complimentary group today…had at least two comments on my impeccable lunge walk form as we were warming up.  #wheelhouse
  • Great job by Winterplace in his first Q.   His counting was good, once he remembered he was supposed to count.  #rookie
  • During the 11s on the football field I was questioning my decision to ask him to Q.  I thought it would never end!
  • Then we followed the 11s with…more running!  Thanks for the suicides Winterplace.
  • The stairwork was just cruel…as if our legs hadn’t had enough…monkey humbers, stairhopping, and hillbilly squats.  #legsonfire
  • Big props to our FNG – Big Easy.  Great effort out there today.  Keep coming back for more.
  • Thanks for taking us out Arena.
  • And thanks to Blue Rhino for giving me a ride home.  Ran in, but definitely not running home after that beatdown!

Annoucements:

  • Mudrun – April 11th. See A51 weekly email.  Madam Tussaud is our event Q for A51.
  • BRR – Sep 10-11th. See A51 weekly email. Turkey Leg is our event Q for A51.
