14 PAX remembered to set their Alarms ahead to join in at Flash this Monday. Ole MacDonald finally Q’d and lead a March Madness Themed Workout.
The Warmup
With U2’s Joshua Tree (Best album cover to cover ever made IMHO) playing in the background and a light rain, we all paired up with people of similar running/stamina ability and then moseyed over to get a rock per team. We them Moseyed to the front of the school to get out of the rain and have a dry place to workout.
- 16 Side Straddle Hop
- 16 Imperial Walkers
- 16 Slow Stretching Mountain Climbers
- 16 Slow Potato Pickers
The Thang
Teams of 2 (similar running/stamina ability) performed each exercise individually in each quarter (see below). On team member would run while one would do the exercises. Faster teams ran a longer distance and slower teams ran a shorter distance. The goal was to have the teams finish each quarter somewhat together. If the team finished a quarter early, someone would lead an exercise until all were done.

As I tried to come up with something unique, but not too complicated, I realized implementing this is harder than it sounds. I hope everyone was challenged and received a good workout.
I received alot of comments on how legible my writing was on the board. I am an artist, what can I say.
The time flew by (kinda like my Illini’s season (thanks Hooch)) and I appreciate everyones encouragement at the end. Thanks brothers!!!
