Leave Your Shoes in the Garage!!

Leave Your Shoes in the Garage!!

Yea, so it rained a little bit. I checked out the AO yesterday afternoon, it was already soggy, so you could imagine after the deluge last night. So 17 PAX learned to navigate puddles and a full-on bog while conditioning their minds and bodies this am. Good size crowd this am, I gave a disclaimer which included knowledge of the rain-soaked terrain and off we went.

Workout: Quick warm up with SSH and IW x 20, then started a warmup lap around the school giving instructions at four different stations. 10 Burpees OYO to complete the warm up then we split up into two groups to spread out and began the AMRAP.

Station 1: Run with sandbag around mini-track in front of school. 20 Merkins or Burpees before or after depending if a sandbag was available

Station 2: 20 Box jumps or step ups on the tree stumps or picnic table at the rear playground

Station 3: 20 LBC and 20 Carolina Drydocks in the lower parking lot

Station 4: 20 overhead press and 20 curls using the cinder blocks at the edge of the sports field

AMRAP until 6:10 approx. Quick mary with flutters and dolly x 20. Done

Moleskin: Site Q Poptart was diligent reminding me last Friday of my duties this am, hope he’s pleased. Solid group and I hope the workout delivered since we were so spread out, I couldn’t read the vibe. I heard some breathing and saw some sweaty brows during COT. Slight grumbling about all the nasty puddles, YHC took a slightly more wet than necessary route in the beginning to get everyone’s feet wet early. The field was really bad, at that point, your socks are wet…deal with it. Total lap is approx. 0.75 miles so everyone got in 3+ laps…not bad. With McGee present I had to make sure we had some Burpee options, which he took advantage of and knocked out his 100 for the day #impressive. It wasn’t my intention but this was a nice prequel to a couple announcements: Sandbags = CSAUP this Saturday at 7am, McAlpine. Soaked feet = Mud Run and Savage events upcoming, ask somebody or look on F3 site for info.

Lastly, thanks to Poptart for the oppty to lead this am. Thanks to Squid for the takeout. And this morning yet another reminder of how precious and short life is and how we need to cherish every minute with loved ones. Our thoughts and prayers are with McGee and his family, as his mother passed away this am.
