The Rock Takes Pride….In It’s Numbers!!!

The Rock Takes Pride….In It’s Numbers!!!

9 pax, including….. 8 men…. and 1 2.0…..tackled 7 obstacles…..2 times over….and covered 4 miles.  #nuffsaid.

It was a Mud Run Training  Day!  The morning was beautiful and so is the best AO Area 51 has to offer…..so we used it all.  After a quick disclaimer, we got after it with the following:

Warm-Up:

• 25 SSH
• 20 Low Slow Squats
• 15 Peter Parkers

The Thang:

We did an orientation lap and covered all of the obstacles, including:

1. Climbing over the Rock at Entrance #4
2. Grabbing a boulder and running with it around the outside perimeter of the baseball field. Flapjack the carry amongst the team
3. Crab walk length wise across the sand voleyball pit
4. Over-Under (Weaver style) on the picnic tables under the pavilion
5. Partner carry in front lot (third man lunges until flapjack)
6. Run up ol’ North Face
7. Bear Slaps; third man backward lunges until flapjack

We broke into three teams of three and off we went.  Each team covered the obstacles twice and we all met at The Rock at Entrance #4 for some plank exercises, then partnered up by the ramp at the entrance for:

• Partner #1 runs the ramp and back while Partner #2 does CDD’s; Flapjack
• Partner #1 runs the ramp and back while Partner #2 does wide arm merkins; Flapjack
• Partner #1 runs the ramp and back while Partner #2 does Freddy Mercury; Flapjack
• Partner #1 runs the ramp and back while Partner #2 does burpees; Flapjack

Mosey back to the cars.  Harley informed us we had covered 3.9 so far.  We needed to run some sprints to get to 4.0 so 2 dashes AYG in between light posts.

Gummy takes over as Q for Mary:

• 20 LBC’s
• 20 Flutter
• 20 Dollys

That’s a wrap!

Moleskin:

Team Harley-Hops-Flipper took the cake today!  They never slowed down and caught up to Gummy-Taffy-YHC by the second round of partner carries.  Well done boys!  Sorry we were playing slow and you had to play through.  (Actually, there is nothing slow about Taffy…..fourteen is apparently Latin for “fast” as he smoked us in the sprints).  Team Cable Guy-Deep Dish-Hammer looked strong and led us through the circuits.

Great mumble chatter out there today and plenty of 2nd F!  Great to see Gummy back at The Rock!!  The man had to ride his bike from obstacle to obstacle, but tackled each of them when he got there.  Thanks for taking the baton on Mary!

As we were taking the orientation lap, we did hear extremely feminine voices yelling to us from 51.  Frankly, it sounded like young girls screaming at a Bieber concert…..rumor has it that was the pax from Think Zero doing a speed walk past us.  We didn’t have time to turn around and mingle, but we hope your zumba workout was good.

As always men, it was my honor to lead this morning.  Thanks for the beast approach on the workout today from all of you!

Hops, thanks for a great ending prayer!!

Hops has the Q next week!!
