Who put us in charge?

Who put us in charge?

Last time EE and I shared a Q, we did the Bassackwards 5K. How do we top that? Well, let’s see what we can do and off we go.

Pre-Thang
EE and I for 5 miles and then we get joined by HH on bike. The same HH that emailed out that he was on the IR list yesterday. Not only is he sandbagging injuries on us but then he mocks EE and I with the bike. Some brief conversation about taking the bike from him and daring him to catch us with his bad leg but we decided to finish the run instead.

The Thang
Mosey to the virtual flag since HH planted it near the cars. O2 dep from his bike ride?

COP
SSH x 20
OYO Merkins x 10 (Just adding them to help me in the 10K merkin challenge)
IW x 20
Oh look, The Count and Squidward arrive which means:
OYO Burpees x 10
Burpee Climbers x 10 (Go down like a burpee but do 4 mountain climbers instead of a merkin before bouncing back up)

Mosey back to the hill
Espresso comes rolling in with a doorless jeep with a huge flag flying outside it. Therefore, we skip the late burpees because he’s got a huge flag outside a doorless jeep. #winning
Partner up
P1 runs down the hill and does 10 burpees at the bottom and then runs back up the hill
P2 does merkins
Flapjack until 100 combined merkins
Plank until all teams are done

Repeato with 200 lbcs
Repeato with 300 squats

My guess is we ended up doing more than 100 burpees each but I’m smoked so don’t trust that if you are doing your own 10K burpee challenge. Now, quick water break and hand it off to EE

Long Native American Run towards Elementary School Playground. Stop short of entrance gate for:
50 x SSH IC

Line up PAX and split into 2 teams
EE pulls 2 x 45# Plates #partyfavorite from behind gates for the 2nd Ever: “Half Mile Hair Burners” (#GameShowSpecial)

One member from each team pushes the plate as far as they can down the Road to Nowhere while the remaining PAX rotate 3 called exercises between each pusher.
Rotate to the next pusher in line and continue until we have reached the half mile finish line!

Called Exercises:
Hand Release Merkins x 15
Bombjacks x 10
Flolly (Flutter/Dolly combo) x 10

Pin Ball Run back to PSV for COT

Moleskine:

Glass Joe: Complete smoker out there. At one point during the EE half-mile hairburner, I’m trying to push my plate and HH is laid out on the road blocking me. Okay, who put the Horse(Head) with a bad leg down? And it broke my momentum with EE’s freaking epoxy covered plates. During the pre-run, EE tells me that the plates are getting worn down. This hope was quickly destroyed during the hairburners and I realized it was just EE being the eternal optimist. Those sucked! Especially after smoking the crowd, and myself, on the hill. My M was waiting on us at McDonald’s with my 2.0s for F3 Dads and she said we all looked rough walking in. Pretty sure that’s a compliment.

Welcome to FNGs Happy and Patch. Happy was the guy at the F3 Golf event with a modified AR-15 that can shoot golf balls. Thus, he got Happy after Happy Gilmore. Patch is a nurse and got named after Patch Adams. He was invited out by The Count. That’s who you get to blame for all this.

EE: Not only was it smoking hot and humid at the Outland, the PAX were completely smoked from an hour of non-stop Work. Fantastic job today by all PAX including 2 FNG’s and HH who pulled a Pee Wee Herman (bike reference only thank you) and rode his bike around during the pre-run and workout since his knee is on the mend! But he did manage the GJ Burpee-thon and took his turn on the Hairburners! #Strong Get well soon brother. GJ had the PAX smoked at Hello with his rendition of Dora right out of the gate, but all took the challenge and ran with it! Good to see Espresso holding his own (down at least) and Big Trade pushing his limits on the Quads #3rddayinarow. HB made sure to cut the sleeves out of his new F3 shirt and almost got arrested for bringing those Big Guns on School property! TLS and CT are machines on the hill and Shep and Count are stepping up their inner beast weekly! Great to have 2 FNG’s, Happy and Patch, with us at the Outland. This was a very tough workout, but you guys held your own and brought it strong. I hope to see you guys back out every week!

Thank you for taking us out TLS! Amazing Group to Grow with every week!
