Mosey out the Shovel Flag
COP
Indian Run to SVHS track
Plank Relay: Plank it up in positions around the track @ 12, 3, 6 & 9 (Three groups of two, one group of 4 and one lone PAX. Group 1 sprints qtr track to group 2, Group 1 assumes plank, group 2 sprints to group3 etc. Keep on truckin until you reach your starting positions. This was supposed to be a dedication to the 4 hour plank record setter. However, the PAX put it all on the line and the sprints were a smokfest with planking as recovery in between. Well done gents!
Mosey over to the field house for a little wall work.
Line it up on the practice field, shoulder to shoulder. Firs man turns, look your buddy in the eye and walk the plank end to end. X2
“The Late Show” on Q
Mosey toward the elem school. Stop along the way for a EE favorite: seal team sit-ups for (10) count. Continue the mosey and regroup at the buses for some cheese wheel low shuffles. Then onward to the elem playground.
Partner up. P1 runs a lap, stopping 1/2 way for (10) ea leg lunges. P2 hangs out for a painful triplet of (4) supine rows or pull-ups, (5) good form push-ups… Sorry “merkins”, (6) low slow squats. Repeat triplet till P1 returns.
Flapjack, rinse & repeat.
Mosey/Indian run back to the shovel flag. Stop along the way for some dry docks and dips in the courtyard…. And right about here Snowman busted loose!! A man of few words for the last two months, his hilarious chatter had been picking up as the workout progressed. After the courtyard dips he started shouting inspirational American-Flag-Football-Movie quotes and Choo-Chooed to the shovel flag like a man possessed, leaving the rest of us to wonder in amusement and do our best to keep up.
Moleskin: A solid workout today. My thoughts on the ride to F2 McD’s drifted toward the story of the Widow and her offering (mark 12.41). I saw the look on faces today as we pounded it out today and I gotta say…. we weren’t just going through the motions. We were giving till it hurt and then some.
Sorry I missed it, I think. I was getting an education with Glass Joe on being a site Q and other leadership challenges which was pretty cool. All to help us grow this Union County region, it’s getting exciting!
At this point I have the lone Q for Saturday but the first half will be a little different with participation from all. Just be there!
