Balloons and Bells

Balloons and Bells

It was a stressful afternoon,  driving straight from Raleigh cutting a meeting short at 2:38, letting them know I had an important commitment I had to go to.  I was looking forward to a 2.0 friendly work out and I had picked up water balloons early that morning.  I did Client Dinner a couple weeks ago while Bottle Cap was running a pint short @ 92 degrees and I thought it sure would be nice to jump in some water and there is 0% chance I would be here when I was a kid in this heat to work out,,,,so what better than a water fight to engage the 2.0’s and make it fun for the adults (I use that term loosely)

Showing up 50 seconds before the start,  I asked Zin to the take the pax down to the baseball fields where I was parking my truck.

WU:  15 SSH, 15 MC, 15 IW and something else

The thang:  Mosey to the hill and promise the 2.0’s a little work and we can have some fun.  7’s on the hill squats at the bottom CDD at the top.  Finish with some plank jacks for the six.  Back to the practice field for some water balloon capture the “53LB kettle bell.”  mostly adult vs kids.  Bucket of water ballons in the middle and adults have to grab the kettle bell and bring it back to base.  If they get hit by a water ballon back to base for 3 burpees.  If it breaks 5 burpees.  If the kids throw and miss its back to base for 3 burpees if an adult catches its 5 burpees.  Three round of this and we mixed it up at the end.  Mosey back to the front of the school,  lunge walk and a frog hop to the front.  At the front 4 donkey kicks with a mike Tyson up to 5, maybe 5.5.  Back to COT to round up with some mary.

Moleskin:  2.o’s were killing it, keep in mind ( I was not thinking) on the last round Rock, Speed bump and I believe The Dude carried a 53Lb KB!!!,  That is impressive.  The Dude and the BEAN were locked on and with high intensity on attack mode.  The rock as an arm of a pitcher.  Orkin and Speed bump have heat seeking ability!  I think the adults had fun too,  had some strategy building on the east end field,  scuba and centerfold were launching a wedge attack form to garner the KB.  All in all finished with A effort all around and I think we had a little fun in the process.  BC thanks for asking me to lead!
