A hit and run sort of a workout

Pulled into the dark DMZ lot around 5:24.  One-Eye and Pothole still in their cars, looking like they were about to get out to get the day started.  PAX started flowing in by car and on foot.  Then about 5:28 tires get locked up, horns start blasting, that heart sinking sound of rims grinding against the sidewalk.  Luckily no cars touched and no one was hurt (not that the guy who caused the drama stuck around to find out)

With the drama behind us 13 PAX were disclaimed and mosey down Camila to the middle school.  Several comments about potentially running into Camp Gladiator.  Seriously, if you know a man doing this, you need to EH him right away.  If he still has the need to part with $125+ a month, I can recommend several well meaning local charities and shelters.  Or the Kirk & Bushwood family college funds.  I think between them they have 47 children.  I don’t know.  I lost count.   I think the 5th kid is free at UNC, plus there are tons of available seats at UNC home football games.  I think the recycling center will pay more for that ticket than stub hub.  #ShotsFired.

Anyway – great to see Kirk back out after the newborn, glad all are doing well.  He still started out hot and won the first lap on the track.

So back to the mosey down Camila.  We did that and circled up in the well lit parking lot for some Squats, IW’s, and lunges.

Everyone grab a line in the parking lot and plank.  10 merkins, civilian count, plank walk left.  9 merkins, plank walk right.  Keep repeating until 1 merkin.  Shake it off and mosey over to the track.  At some point here Aqua Fresh chooses the correct path and after coming in late joins the PAX.  He still owes us 15 Imperial Walkers – slacker.

Hop the fence onto the track because it’s too dark to see the open gate 30 feet away.  Stand around for directions.  Run 400M then do 5 burpees, (Here’s where Benefactor pulls his best Chelms impression and starts to take off early, we hold him back) then run 300M and 10 burpees, 200M and 15 burpees, 100M and 20 burpees.  Some plank work then mosey back to the start.

A few rounds of peoples chair, with air presses then foot raises.  Mix that in with step ups/dips/derkins.

Back to the track for some mary:  Freddy Mercury, Heels to Heaven, Flutter, LBC.

400M dash around the track with 20 burpee finisher.  Plank for the six.

Mosey back to front parking lot and plank on a parking line.  This time 5-4-3-2-1 CDD’s in cadence with a plank walk left and right in between.

Head back to launch passing the fire truck and ambulance on Camila.  Nothing to see here.

Back to launch for some more mary (flutters and protractor) plus more burpees because, why not.

Moleskine:

Solid group out there hanging tight on the track sprints.  Hannibal said he hadn’t done a boot camp in a while and not much since BRR.  I am sure he will feel this in the morning.  Bout Time and Rachel were crushing the track/burpee combos and didn’t seem to be breathing that hard.

My last Q at DMZ was 16 degrees so this was a solid upgrade and we didn’t have to run 5+ miles to keep from freezing solid.  I don’t get up this far much, but it’s always a good crew and mix of Metro/A51 Pax.  Solid leadership from One-Eye and looking forward to see what Aqua Fresh brings to the mix.

Thanks to Semi for the solid take off as we prepared to embark from the lot.
