Run for Cover – Excuse-Arama

Run for Cover – Excuse-Arama

Was looking forward to the 2nd running of the new Amrap course and all the beauty she would be providing. Cantore was a concern with the rain soaked month not letting up>>>>but the show must go on…for some..for a few…

I arrived at the site early to check conditions to see what state the course was in — not that great. Decided to re-configure it a bit to “accomodate” a few requests or annoyances:

• Reduced Mike Tyson’s to 15 – tennis arms would be happy
• cut out the hill – instead hug the wall around the school and end up at the tables/benches for Step-ups; but start with the 20 Derkins
• Dips remain the same
• Replace rocks with Basketball slides around the circle (the rocks were actually doing some good storm water control and didn’t want to risk getting our crew “Damascussed” out of Cuthbertson.
• To path for Bear Crawl and 10 BH’s
• Burpee lap counter

I then rolled into the middle school parking lot and there were more than a few cars there pretty early. Rockwell even commented “man – must be a few folks out for the pre-run”. Upon further inspection we realized these cars were left over from a middle school class trip…

So the Fabulous Five moseyed over to the HS to begin the Amrap. quick DCCS, CPR, Phone all set. 15SSH –

Ready set star your engines:

The Fabulous Five pushed like hell today – no music, no chatter, just a few rain drops and your own thoughts..

Gerber led the Pax around the course, but the MT’s and Derkins kept him in sight. Rockwell, Chainsaw and Wedding Singer pushing hard. Everyone did 4+ or close to 4 laps.

Excuse-Arama started flowing on GroupMe at 6:48.

But we move on – March 29th is the next Amrap –
