Radar Avoids Another Backblast

YHC got a call from Radar at 0654.  He indicated that he would, in fact, make it by 0700.  He was actually a few minutes late and wearing flip flops when he pulled in.  No one seemed to mind much. He got shoed up and asked about FNG’s before we hit it.  Radar had 1st 30, YHC had 2nd.

COP

SSH x 50 IC

IW x 25 IC

MC x 25 IC

Squat x 20 IC

Indian Run out of the McAlpine lot into the Touchstone neighborhood.  Partner up.  Determine which partner is faster.  Partners run opposite directions of 1 mile loop.  Meet in the middle somewhere.  5 sets of 10 Hand-Slap Merkin/10 Knee Slaps.

Burpee Suicides

Uphill runs of increasing distance to telephone poles.  1 Burpee at each turnaround.  Chair Plank when finished.  Indian Run back to campus.  Radar passed the Q to YHC at the B-ball court.

Circle up for Mary.  6 inches/Dolly x20 IC/Hold/Flutter x 20 IC/Hold/Heels to Heaven x 20 IC/Hold/Rosalita x 20 IC/Hold/Protractor/Hold/3-10 counts.

Flip over into high plank for Plank Series.  Several plank moves for approximately 4 minutes.  Flatulence dictated the length of this series.  It was time to vacate the area to the Rock Pile.

Grab exercise rock and form groups of 3.

Relay Mile Race

Each partner runs 1 lap of track at AYG speed.  Non-runners rinse and repeat rock set: 15 Curl/15 Press/15 Tri Extensions/5 Rockees.  Team of YHC, Dear Abby, and Margo the winners.  Soccer folks began pulling in.  Finished with 1.2 mile loop.  Down 51 to first light.  Right.  Right on Bevington.  Right on Carswell.  Done.

Excellent to have Purple Haze join us today at Day Zero.  Radar showed me the text exchange between he and Haze.  Let’s put it this way, Haze was slightly hesitant about a DZ post with Radar and YHC on Q.  Radar can be very convincing.  He will call you out.  Got it done and Haze posted. Great to see you back out brother.

Pax all worked hard today for this run-heavy bootcamp.  Must be some kind of running race looming. YHC messaged Radar earlier in the week to pass the buck on the backblast.  No response.  His strategy today was simple.  He told YHC he was not posting a backblast and he didn’t care.  Told me I would have to post because it would bother me too much not to.  Guess he knows me well.  Really enjoyed this workout.  Strong crew and hard work.  Sorry to Margo for not incorporating your request for calf raises.  Next time for sure.  Thanks for the opportunity to lead.  T-claps to Skywalker for the takeout prayer.

Thanks for leading today Mermaid and Radar. Looked like a good one as everyone was breathing hard when I came through. Sorry I couldn’t join in with that fun group. HB and I knew we were leaving DZ in good hands today…although we were planning on Radar not showing.
