First time Q (VQ) for YHC just before my 6 month F3 anniversary. Thanks to Gummy and Hopper for making it happen, and can’t ask for a better AO. Even the weather played along, allowing us to run with some rocks without losing any fingers.
The Thang
Warmup: Disclaimer and nice scenic run around the Calvary church to scope out the AO, back to start for some SSH, IW, merkins and slow squats.
Run to get a nice size running rock and head straight to the hotbox and people’s chair with our rocks:
Run to hill on the field and do modified 7s:
Head back to hotbox for some people’s chairs before trying to do 5 count Rock-a-bye baby:
Mosey to front (back?) of church switching exercises at each median:
Circle up at front of church:
Mosey to North Face (working our way around the church for a 2nd time):
Work our way back to rock return:
Quick run back for short Mary as we were out of time:
The Moleskin:
The PAX kept me on my toes, but no attempts were made at stealing my notes sheet. There was some questionable cadence counting (who doesn’t enjoy a good variable speed cadence count?), and I probably should’ve mentioned we were doing slow squats, but the guys picked it up after a couple. Interpretation of the correct size for a running rock varied nicely, between pebbles and head sized, but everyone managed to keep up pretty well. There was a lot of chatter especially during the rock merkins, the pax might need some balance work. By my calculations we did about 2.5 miles with our rocks, and 3.1 miles total, so we gave those rocks a good tour. Burpees were kept to a minimum.
Thanks for the Q guys, looking forward to my next one!
