It was all a blur

14 Brave SOBs decided to enjoy the Arctic Blast following Thursday’s spring like temps and start their weekend off right chasing it into the Gloom

Mostly Veteran group – so quickly disclaimed and off we want.
(began to worry part of the group had decided to head over to Einstein’s for bagels and coffee instead of the Arctic winds of Ballantyne)

The group all finally show up.

No COP – straight to work (YHC tweeted the night before this would be a basic meat and potatoes workout, and didn’t want to disappoint.

The Thang (the instructions were as follows – this is the work to be done today – get as much done as time allows)

1 x lap around Loch Ness
1 x lap with (3)stops for 10 derkins, 10 jump ups, 10 dips then
2 x laps around Loch Ness
1 x lap with (3) stops for 20 derkins, 20 jump ups, 20 dips, then
3 x laps around Loch Ness
1 x lap with (3) stops for 30 derkins, 30 jump ups, 30 dips, than
4 x lap around Loch Ness
1 x lap with (3) stops for 40 derkins, 40 jump ups, 40 dips then
ladder your way back to the beginning – working to get as far as you can.

But wait there is a twist – during the “exercise laps”, when you are crossing behind the buildings to do the derkins and jump ups, you must bear crawl when on the bricks (YHC forgot how big these brick patios were.

Off we went – the time called at 6:08 fast mosey back to parking low for some Brave style mary.

6 mins of Mary

Flutter Kicks x 50 in cadence
Holdem
Dollies x 10 in cadence.

Done

NMM

Not an exciting workout today but YHC thinks everyone got their money’s worth. Lots of Larry Birds today. I think Frasier and MT work working their way back down the pyramid and all others topped out thru the 4th level (40 jump ups after about a 25 yard bear crawl is most unsavory)

Cable Guy, Big Tuna, Strawberry, Chippy, Outback, Fire Hazzard, Mr. Bean, Johnny 5, and Heart Breaker were all flying out there. Wingman is a ironman, pushing thru a painful calf, not stopping once. And MC was not only flying but didn’t even look tired out there after pounding out 100 perfect form derkins (YHC was smoked when adding in the bear crawling). And to that, the pax bear crawled about 250 yards or more today along with 100+ derkins, 100+ jumps ups (painful) and 100+ dip = work was done today

Again great work by all. Its an honor and privilege to get to lead such a great group of men. Thanks for the opportunity.

btw – as we were about to launch, Mr, Bean asked who was Q and upon hearing it was YHC, he responded well D&%M – that just warms YHC’s heart to get that response.

Have a great weekend men.

That was a tough workout. I’ve hurt all day.

I vote for a name change for Frazier to Jimmy Johns because that dude freaky fast. He lapped me twice on the 1/3 mile lap around Loch Ness.

I was running for four since my team did not show up and all of your team was there.

I hate bear crawls so that was a nice addition.

Thanks to Wingman for the the 1980s aerobic ear warmers.

As always Champagne you bring a pill full of pain. Great lead, you encouraged everyone on what I think was the toughest workout in my F3 experience.
