I’m not failing, I’m learning

I’m not failing, I’m learning

Last night, a jet-lagged Ickey Shuffle called out for a replacement at Anvil. I took on the lead and we all learned some valuable lessons.

Like a kale-chip,  the conditions were crisp, dark but good for you.

COP:
Side-straddle hops x 15
Imperial Walkers x 15
Low, slow squats x 15
Mountain climbers x 10
‘Mericans x 10
Mountain climbers left-hand high
‘Mericans x 10
Mountain climbers right-hand high

We left campus from Rea Rd to Pineville-Matthews. I had planned a circuit through Challis Farms. Upon reaching the neighborhood, we learned it was gated. And with that my Weinke was ruined. We ran back to Calvary and here’s what we did instead.

Catch Me If You Can
P1 – 3 burpees
P2 – Run
Switch and repeat

Triple Nickel on North Face
‘Merican & Jump squats
Repeat with Jump squats & ‘Mericans

Planter Partner
100 combined Derkins
Wall Sit

Mary ‘Merican Ladder
10 ‘Mericans & 10 LBC (IC)
thru 1 ‘Merican & 1 LBC

1-minute elbow plank

We covered nearly 2.25 miles and along the way we sprinkled in some additional Mary & ‘Mericans, but that pretty much covers it.

Mo’ skine, Mo problems:
I have been to Anvil a few times in the past, but I really don’t know the AO well. (That’s coming from someone who doesn’t know my regular AOs too well either.) Foolishly, I thought I could run to a neighborhood street for an out-and-back and not get lost. I did not count on a gated neighborhood. I learned you can run the Rea Rd. Calvary entrance. For being very confused most of the morning, the PAX were pretty helpful and understanding. Thank you.

Flipper and Rachel dominated the North Face segment. Udder provided some guiding chatter to keep me on track and Purrell and Snowflake never complained and hustled all morning.
