Rainy, Sandy, Burpee, and Parking Deck-y

Rainy, Sandy, Burpee, and Parking Deck-y

At around 1700 on Monday evening, YHC was reminded of my Q the next morning by a well-timed Kirby slackbomb.  My 70ish lb sandbag was still sitting in my trunk and the weather report called for rain.

Upon my arrival at the site, I pulled the sandbag out of my trunk and Kirby asked “need another sandbag?”.  Yes.

10 pax converge to see the two sandbags, get a quick disclaimer, and off we go.

The Thang:

Indian Run with Sanbags all the way to the parking deck and up the ramps to the top.:  The sandbags start at the end of the line and the pax with the sandbag sprints to the front.  Once at the front, the sandbags are passed to the end of the line.

Mosey down the stairs.  For the beginning of parking deck suicides.  Run to the top of the 1st ramp, perform 5 burpees.  Run back to the start, 1st 2 finisher owe 20 sandbag squats before starting their next round.  Run up to the top of the 2nd ramp, perform 10 burpees, run back down to the start, 1st 2 finishers owe 20 sandbag squats before starting their next round………….all the way up the parking deck and perform 25 burpees.

Indian run with sandbags back down all the ramps to the parking lot next to the launch.

Break into even teams of 5 fast guys and 5 faster guys for a relay race.  Faster guys get the heavy bag.  Slow guys get the less heavy bag.  Each pax completes a 100 yard sprint while the rest of the pax holds plank.  Winning Team completes 14 burpees.  Losing Team completes 15 burpees.

Mosey back to launch and complete 10 more burpees to give us an even 100 as we run out the clock

COT

Skin:

Between reminding me on slack and providing gear that I didn’t even ask for, Kirby is really stepping up as the new Q of Bagpipe.

Bagpipe is blessed to have a lot of different athletes of different speeds.  YHC hoped to leave no man behind by giving the Larry Birds more reps and more weight as a prize for finishing first.

Somehow Cheddar ended up in the Slow Guys line.  Probably the reason why they won.

If you enjoyed sandbag work, stop by the new Monday workout Genesis at the Blakeney AO.  515 launch.  45 minutes of bootcamp followed by a 15 minute stretch with the Blakovery Pax.
