Beware the Bonnie Blair!

Beware the Bonnie Blair!

~17 pax gathered to support YHC in his 6^th VQ. The temperature was well above freezing, but we centered our theme on ice (like the water running through Hammer’s veins)

• Mosey to COP

o    Some I.W.s

o    Some L.S.S.s

o    Some True Americans (hand-release merkin plank jack)… apparently Hops is the only person who can handle a 6-count exercise… the rest of the pax were utterly befuddled.

o    Hacky Sack.. this is the time on Sprockets when we dance! (Or when everyone stands around and watches YHC dance)

·         Mosey to center of the cushy turf field

o    YHC asked the pax which 4 U.S. states comprise the 4 Corners nat’l monument. Hannibal nailed 3 of 4 (NM, AZ, CO), and thankfully someone bailed us out with a “Utah!” or we’d all still be in high plank. The jam went like this…

o    5 burpees before, b/t, and after each set

o    Merkins

o    Jump Squats

o    CDDs

o    Big Boy Situps

o    Bear crawl or crab walk to the corner, mosey back to center (diagonals got LONNNNNGGGG by the 3 round!)

·         Mary at center field

• Bridge (hold!) –
• Take the scenic route through enchanted forest to the track and circle up for some more Mary

The patented “a$$ wrecker” (I told everyone they’d know why it’s called that tomorrow morning when they go to sit down on the toilet)… I heard some raucous laughter from the pax and realize…. That’s not exactly what I meant, but whatever.

o    20 SMCs

o    20 skater lunges (“Bonnie Blairs”)… (5 time Olympic gold medalist and native of Champagne, IL, Hops’ hometown)

• 20 Mtn climbers
  • Run 400
• Repeat 3 times with mary in b/t

Line up on the waterfall line… just enough time for 400 AYG, then back to start.

5 burpee OYO (yes, while YHC goes to get his phone)

·         Moleskin

Puddin’ felt the need to bring into question Bonnie Blair’s $exual orientation. (But then again, many of us question that of Puddin’)

Welcome Homer! (Hawks Nest 1st-timer)

·         Thank you, Sardine, for keeping me informed of when the 6 was in

·         Thank you, La-Z-Boy, for initiating the 400, or we’d all still be on the line

·         Pop Tart clearly sandbagged for 57 mins, b/c he crushed the 400… the kid’s got wheels when we wants to

·         Floorslapper, I don’t know when or how you found us, but glad you did

·         Hopper for informed us that his PT said CDDs are the “dumbest exercise on earth” (cool, I’ll be sure to double them next time)
