Why Did the Chicken Cross Hwy 51?

We opened with a disclaimer in the darkness of the CC parking lot. At 5:30 sharp  25 PAX jogged up to Olde Town Village Center.

Warm-Up (with some D+ cadence from the VQ…definitely a work in progress)

  • Side Straddle Hops x 20
  • Imperial Walkers x 20
  • Windmill x 20
  • Carolina Dry Dock x 15
  • Cotton Pickers x 15

We then made the trek across 51 to Carmel Commons

Speed Bumps 

  • Stop at each speed bump (approx. 7) around the shopping center and complete an exercise x 4, each followed with Mary waiting on the six
    • 1st round – Merkins x 10 at each speed bump
    • 2nd round – Mountain Climbers x 10 per speed bump
    • 3rd round – Carolina Dry Docks x 10 per speed bump
    • 4th round – Mountain Climbers x 10 per speed bump

We then jogged behind the shopping center to tackle the hill

Hill Work

  • Began with 6 jump squats on side A of the hill and 1 hand release burpee on side B, alternating until finishing with 6 HR burpees on side B. I know there is a name for this, but it is escaping me at the moment.

We then moseyed around the shopping center, successfully crossed over 51, and met up for Mary at the launch spot

Mary

  • We went around the circle with the PAX leading various Mary exercises and finished up with a minute plank

Moleskin

  • Great job today by the PAX. I appreciate you guys being a part of my VQ, I’ll work on the cadence for homework.
  • Thanks to Shoe for the nice prayer to take us out.

Announcements

  • The Brave and Centurion are converging next week at Charlotte Catholic – start time 5:15

“We then went jogged behind” – Did you go to Elon?

Hill Work equals Bent Jacobs Ladder equals Suckfest

Great first Q. Practice cadence at home – takes practice to get it right #10,000 fails
