Can’t see the lines, can you Russ?

Can’t see the lines, can you Russ?

Nine men gathered in an elementary school parking lot at 7:00 on a crisp, 24 degree morning. Nice mixed crowd of vets, 2.0s and an FNG. I gave a terrific disclaimer. Trust me, people are saying it was the best disclaimer. It was great. Swiss Miss had warned me beforehand that he was gimpy and would be carrying kettlebells around because he couldn’t run with us. High Tide loves bells, so he had some too. As you read this, imagine us dragging 7-8 bells with us throughout the workout.

Yog over to the front field. Cursory warmup (IW, Slow Squats, Mountain Climbers, hand release merkins). I almost called SSH, but remembered that I don’t do those. Then line up abreast on the sideline. Traverse the field doing interesting (carioca, crab walk, etc.) with a burpee ladder at each sideline (10, 9, 8, etc.).

Over to the concession stand for a starfish of sorts. Partner 1 does a KB swing in the middle, partner 2 runs down one of the four baselines to do an exercise. Flapjack, repeat, etc. Up to the wall on the back of the school for people’s chair/pull-ups/BTW. Over to the side parking lot for Mary (solid 8 minutes), then over the the Tree of Life (tree with benches around it next to the road). Step ups, incline merkins, dips, decline merkins. Over to the front field again for 10 sprints. Done.

FNG was a friend of Goon’s. He owns a manufacturing company, so we settled on Acme.
