4 Rounds. Simple.

Fall is upon us and 10 Pax decided to feast on what YHC was serving.  With only 2 minutes to spare, YHC came in hot, disclaimed, handed Old Glory to Nemo and off we went.   Here is what happened for all you who missed and decided to go to the Clemson / Wake Forest game.

The Thang:

Short jog to other side of parking lot and circle up.

  • IW x 10
  • Low, slow squats x 10
  • Mountain climber x 10

Now that everyone is warmed up, we grabbed Old Glory and raced toward the legacy Day Zero site.  Upon arrival, the Pax attempted to perform the following:

Round 1

  • 50 merkins
  • 10 pull ups
  • 25 squats
  • 10, 4-count parker peters
  • 10, 4-count peter parkers
  • Run 2 laps around soccer fields

Round 2

  • 10 burpees
  • 35 carolina dry docks
  • 25 hand release merkins
  • 50 LBCs
  • 20, 4-count mountain climbers
  • Run 2 laps around soccer fields

Round 3

  • 15 diamond merkins
  • 15, 4-count freddie mercury
  • 15 heels to heaven
  • 15 old time sit ups
  • 15, 4-count flutters
  • Run 2 laps around soccer fields

Round 4

  • 5 burpees
  • 10 pull ups
  • 15, 4-count J-LOs
  • 20 walking lunges
  • 25, 4-count American hammer
  • Run 2 laps around soccer fields

We were running short on time, the Pax was grumbling, families were beginning to arrive for their Saturday morning ritual of screaming at their son/daughter to kick the ball, so YHC called an audible and Jet Fuel grabbed Old Glory for a final lap around the fields.  Upon conclusion of our lap, we headed back to Rock Zero.

Mole: 

Classify this workout as one that looks better on paper than in reality as we covered approximately 4.5 miles.  While YHC struggled, BLC (respect) brought his “A” game and was out front most of the morning.  The Clemson duo of Hammer and Marge were unfaltering. Spackler and Jet Fuel questioned their decision regarding the amount of adult beverages consumed last night.  Hopper was the fan favorite given two cars honked at him as he was running down hwy 51, apparently 45 and gray is attractive.  Dingo and Hoover were relentless and never stopped moving.  Nemo, while last to arrive at 6:59:45, was never last at anything for the remainder of the workout.  Jet Fuel properly took us out as we remembered Las Vegas and prayed for healing.

I didn’t question the Titos. I questioned your call for the 2 laps. Nice work DD. I was exhausted but that means nothing.

Dish: Strong workout! I don’t know that I have ever ran 4.75 miles at Rock Zero. Mix in plenty of merkins, burpees and mary and I was set to whine all day about how tired I was!

While I appreciate the shout out that those car honks were due to attraction, I think they were more likely due to patriotism as they occurred while I was carrying the shovel flag. Let’s just be honest…. my explanation makes more sense than yours!

Way to bring it bro!

Wow. Ragnar was easy compared to this. Somehow in 5 years of F3 I’ve never been subjected to a Deep Dish Q.

Also, Hopper is not 45.
