The Thang….
The clock hit 5:15 there was a quick disclaimer and the PAX headed over to the parking lot across the way to warm up.
COP – in cadence
20 – SSH
15 – Windmills
OK that is enough. Time to mosey over to Ballantyne Commons Parkway and gather the Pax for instructions.
Run up the right hand side of Ben Nevis stopping at every entrance point to complete alternating Burpees (10) and Squats (20). YHC thought we would have 7 stops and end up with 40 Burpees and 60 Squats. Luckily YHC was wrong and there were 8 stops so the PAX each received 40 Burpees and 80 squats. Pebbles finished first and corrected YHC’s squat form. Then we headed back to the pick up the 6 and finish another 20 squats as a team.
The next item on the agenda was an Indian run for a few hundred yards where the PAX were led in some Mary and Merkins.
We then continued to mosey down to Rushmore for some more Mary while we waited for the 6. YHC lead the PAX down Rushmore over to the lake with the Bridge. During this mosey the PAX completed a 25 yard Bear Crawl.
Once at the lake the PAX were instructed to complete a set of 7’s on the big hill. Burpees at the bottom and Merkins at the top. A few more Merkins were completed after planking for the 6 and we were off again.
YHC headed over to the pond closest to 485 (which is .3 miles around) and the PAX partnered up. Each man would do 3 laps while his partner alternated Lunges and CCD’s. Oh wait. There is not enough time for all of that. So Outback made a wise comment that he would start the Mosey with some of the smoked PAX while the other did one more lap.
The only takers on the final lap were YHC and Pebbles. After this lap the PAX grouped back up and moseyed back to the AO.
The Moleskin –
This was a fine group of men to lead today. It was nice to see Golmer out at the brave and T-Claps to Bandaid for coming out to the Brave for his second F3 workout ever (First was the Maul this week). He pushed hard and did not quit. Hope to see you two at Da Vinci tomorrow. Pebbles was speedy as usual and Wild Boar showed off his speed keeping up with Pebbles step for step on the lap around the lake. Haggis helped us keep our merkin form in tip top shape per the usual. Also, T-claps to Outback for keeping the group together and pushing everyone, #him.
