11 of Area 51's finest toed the line this morning for a little tribute to Coach Dean Smith. YCH and his trusty sidekick (THE BEARD) arrived a few minutes early to lay out the court with a little help (Thanks Icky Shuffle!). As PAX rolled in, Mermaid tried to assign War Daddy status to Purple Haze but must have forgot Abacus was in attendance. All were eventually trumped by Iron Horse! The Thang: We set off on our adventure for the day with a brisk mosey mixing in some backward runs and karaokes finishing in the large lot behind Calvary. COP SSH x 25 IW x 25 Crab cake x 20 (a new one for Anvil - seemed to be a crowd pleaser) Count off 1,2,1,2...remember your # Mosey to front lot on 51 for Four Corners (our Ode to Coach Dean Smith): Two groups Divided and marked with cones in the corners (2 areas) Approx 40yds corner to corner *** run between corners except animal set First set: 1's 1 - jump squats x 20 2 - lunges x 20(10/leg) 3 - Peter Parkers x 20(10/leg) 4 - Parker Peters x 20(10/leg) 2's 1 - merkins x 20 2 - wide arm merkins x 20 3 - diamonds x 20 4 - carolina dry docks x 20 FLAPJACK Second set 1's 1 - LBC x 20 2 - CCV x 20(10/side) Hops would be proud! 3 - flutter kicks x 20 4 - russian twist x 20 2's 1 - bear crawl from c1-c2, 5 burpees 2 - crab walk from c2-c3, 5 burpees 3 - frog jump from c3-c4, 5burpees 4 - dragon walk from c4-c1, 5 burpees FLAPJACK Half Time: Both groups - Defensive shuffle to Corner 1 - Spring to Corner 2 - Defensive shuffle to Corner 3 - Backwards run to Corner 4 Both Groups then repeated all but the ANIMAL set (OUCH!!!). Mosey to courtyard at front of Calvary for some Peoples Chair with Arm Presses in Cadence. Indian Run back to the Shovel Flag with just enough time for some Dollies and Rosalitas in cadence. Moleskine: I think we can all appreciate the 4 Corners a little more after today's workout! Mumble chatter was on and off today - must be the weather or the O2 deprivation. The tweets came alive later in the morning once everyone cought their breath. YHC did sense a little "beard envy"...It's hard work! As always, it was a pleasure to lead such a solid group at Anvil. Drop Thrill - getting strong brother! PAX, Sound off in comments for announcements (technology fail for YHC) AYE!
