Irish Beatdown



Irish Beatdown

Warm Up

1/2 mile Mosey up to Cuthbertson Rd and back to start.  Stretching – Jimmy Dugans, calf stretch, can openers, downward dog.

The Thang

Rifle carry block to end of parking lot.  Partner up with someone of opposite ability.  P1 Runs, P2 does exercise. When P1 returns, P2 runs and P1 does exercise until the pair complete the assigned number of reps.

1.)500 400 cinderblock curls total per team.  Other partner runs the entire length of parking lot and back, the other does the curls.  No Mary, run until 6 is finished.

2.) Next exercise 300 LBC’s, this time run half the length of parking lot and back.

3.) 100 Blockees. continue the run with half the length of parking lot and back. Recover called with 2 minutes left.  Rifle carry block back to COT.

45 second plank.  Time.

Ye Old Moleskin

Had to audible to 400 curls, 500 was a bit excessive.  Recalculating was calling me on calling an IPC type number of reps after I infamously tweeted trash on IPC channel back in September about the 10,000 merkins that was featured in IPC week 2.  Crowd favorite was the 100 blockees.  I introduced the last move in a sneaky way, saying we would continue with the half  parking lot mosey and only 100 reps……of BLOCKEES. I knew with about 10 minutes left no team would likely complete all 100, however the emphasis was to give all you got until time is called.  Sledgeomatic and I got in 68 before time was called, some others more, some less.  Most got in around 2.5 miles.

Sign Up for Bypass meal train.

Representing my alma mater I wore my Green Notre Dame shirt, played Irish music in memory of my Mom (maiden name Donovan), and I lead us out in this prayer:

May the road rise up to meet you.

May the wind be always at your back.

May the sun shine warm upon your face;

the rains fall soft upon your fields and until we meet again,

may God hold you in the palm of His hand.
