AMRAP – Yuge Crowd, Bigly Performance
Yet again at Impromptu a lot of new PAX (8) and old PAX (22 including a young-looking Recalculating in his newish “athletic fit” plaid shirt) took to the best AMRAP course this side of 12 Mile Creek. The weather was a little cooler which hopefully contributed to some better performances as well.
WARMUP
To get the PAX fired up for the day, we had a Motivational Speaker take us through warm-ups. Foley kicked us off with his VQ – Nice Job! He apparently had been preparing for days by the looks of the small pad of paper he brought with him for cue cards.
Mosey to front of middle school. Disclaimer given. SSH x 25, Merkin x 20. Mosey to the back of the high school for the action.
THE THANG
AMRAP challenge. Consists of about a 1/2 mile lap with 7 exercise stations along the route. 30 minutes to complete as many laps as possible. Stations included:
- Merkins x 20
- Dips x 20
- Box Jumps x 20
- WWII sit-ups x 20
- Curl to Press x 20
- Suppines x 20
- Burpees x # of laps completed
After 30 mins, we gathered up the PAX and slogged back to COT
MOLESKINE
Great effort by all today . . . every PAX got at least 3 laps in. Nice work. 8 PAX took to the course for the first time while 18 returning PAX either met or beat their previous best performance. Great job by Goodfella leading the way and matching his course record. Shout out to Rockwell for being the only PAX to make all 6 AMRAP workouts. Here are the results:
