Good Day Thursday

Good Day Thursday

It was a beautiful Thursday morning and 8 of South Charlotte’s finest gentlemen decided to post to Hydra.  For those of you who failed to show due to calf cramps, hang nails and other creative excuses, here’s what you missed.

Following a brief but effective disclaimer…..Short mosey around the parking lot and circle up for COP:

• SSH x 10
• LSS x 10
• MC x 10

Run to the Harris Teeter, plank up, and run back to launch point.

Main Event:

Four stations provided the morning’s fun.  Here’s what we did, using the concession stand as the center point for the remaining three stations.

• At the concession stand, perform 25 merkins, 10 jump ups / step ups, 10 peter parkers
• Run to the small tree near the football field and perform 10 jump squats
• Run back to concession stand and perform 25 merkins, 10 jump ups, 10 peter parkers
• Run to playground and perform 10 pull ups
• Run to the small track and do a lap running backwards
• Once lap is complete, run to playground and perform 10 pull ups
• Run to concession and perform 25 merkins, 10 jump ups, 10 peter parkers
• Repeat until 6:05

At 6:05, grab some wall for people’s chair.  Each individual pax performed AMRAP merkins, as remaining pax did the same number of air presses while holding people’s chair.

4 minutes of Mary:

• Freddy Mercury x 10
• Dolly x 10
• Side crunch (each side) x 10
• Jack – knife crunch (each side) x 10

Done.

The Skinny:

Excellent work by a small, veteran crew who covered just over 3 miles. There was a little chatter around the sequencing of stations at the beginning of The Main Event, however, given the pax is smarter than the average bear, were able to figure it out.  Great hustle by Jet Fuel, Arena and Iron Sides.  Gummy ran in / ran out. Pudding Pop, Queen and Pop Tart showed us they can still knock out 50 merkins at the end of a workout. I enjoyed my assigned Q, hope you did as well.

Announcements:
