Just what the world needs. Another Waxhaw Backblast. You’re welcome.
If you showed up for Swarm today, surprise, it’s just a 1.5 mile warmup and test drive through the AMRAP course so Dasher can feel comfortable about leaving early for his vacation to the beautiful city of Raleigh in December.
Swarm circled back, grabbed the Impromptu crew and off we went to the high school stairs for version 34 of Recalc’s AMRAP.
Most people were probably already prepared for today’s course thanks to the outstanding job Recalc did on the preblast map. That being said, everything was laid out and easy to read on cones.
The Thang:
Station 1: Run to the top of the stairs by the school for Squats x 20
Station 2: Run down the path to the intersection that takes you up to the traffic circle for 20 Big Boy Situps
Station 3: Run to Rudy’s Shed for Donkey Kicks x 20
Station 4: Run to the basketball court for Bunny Hops the length of the court and back
Station 5: Run to benches behind middle school for Derkins x 10
Station 6: Run to the Breezeway, Bear Crawl length of breezeway
Before you start second lap, 2 burpess, increase by 2 burpess every lap
Time was called at 6:10
MOLESKIN:
So where do you hide your Elf on the Shelf? How long does it take to hide it? These are all great questions. When Sugar Daddy didn’t make the Swarm start this morning it was because he was hiding his Elf on the Shelf. Well done, looks like you started the AMRAP a little early today.
Perfect weather for an AMRAP this morning. Not to hold, not too cold. Don’t tell that to Deflated who was completely covered except for his eyes. Maybe it wasn’t even him. Bottlecap and Easy Button were tagged with “overdressing” as well.
Most PAX got in between 3.5 and 5 rounds. Great job for a new course. Besides the bunny hops I’ll give two thumbs up to version 34. Can’t wait to see what version 35 brings to the table.
Until next month gents……..
