Tour of Pain… Even In The Rain!!!

Tour of Pain… Even In The Rain!!!

10 brave souls ignored the pending atmospheric disturbances to experience one more climb to Peak 51.  Having disclaimed, we took off for something that went approximately like this:

TOP (Tour of Pain) – consisted of 6 stops around the Matthews Elementary campus and nearby for the following at each stop:
SSH x 20
IW x 20
Merkins x 10 (in cadence)
Low Slow Squat x 20
CDD’s x 10 (in cadence)

The rain became more steady by stop #4, but we proceeded… no rain ever hurt anybody!  The final stop was on the stage in Stumptown Park… aka our all-weather workout facility exclusive to Peak 51!

After the final Tour Of Pain circuit, we split into 3 teams of 3… staying on the stage.  3-man bear crawl relay, while other two partners do squats.  Rinse and repeat with backwards bear crawl.

2 45-second people’s chair… DONE!

The weather didn’t deter today… you guys did awesome!  I konw it doesn’t look like much, but my thought was to do the Tour Of Pain relatively quickly, no breaks, and move quickly between exercies to keep the heart rate/breathing up.  Hopefully it got close to that!

Great to have Fix it Felix back out!

Geraldo did solo pre-ruck (at least he walked off into the darkness…), and Sensei and Slim Fast did sad clown pre-run.
