Day Zero or Centurion?

Day Zero or Centurion?

9 men made the wise choice to post at Day Zero and were surprised to see YHC have the Q. We circled up in the field out back and the disclaimer was given. Here’s how the rest went down…..

The Thang:

COP:

SSH X 10

IW X 10

Merkin X 10

Mosey down Pineville-Matthews road to the Charlotte Catholic high school parking deck. (1.5 miles)

Parking Deck Suicides – Run up the deck and a burpee X 10 each turn and return to the bottom. 4 turns total. Once finished, ran back for the six.

At the top of the deck: 5 burpees, run to the bottom of the stairs and return back up the stairs for 5 more burpees.

Mosey to the bottom of the top ramp, 20 donkey kicks and sprint up the ramp.

We left the deck down the stairs and moseyed over to the hill behind Cabo’s for 7s. 6 merkins at the top, 1 jump squat at the bottom; 5 merkins at the top, 2 jump squat at the bottom; etc.

We then crossed Carmel road and moseyed over to the “the pit”. Bear Crawl down the hill, through the pit and back up the hill.

Return to McAlpine Elementary and lined up across the basketball court for Merkin Ladder Sprints. Sprint across the court 10 merkins, sprint back 9 merkins, etc…. down to 5 merkins

Circle up for Mary: LBCs X 20, Heels to Heaven X 20, Freddy Mercuries X 25

Moleskin:

I have never had the privilege to post at Day Zero before, but had plans to meet mermaid there today for some 2^nd F breakfast afterwards. Mermaid tweaked his knee and asked YHC to cover him at Day Zero at about 10 am on Friday morning and I’m always willing to help a Brother. With no time to scout out the site, I went with what I was familiar with… Centurion.

It’s a 1.5 mile run to the Charlotte Catholic Parking deck and Paper Jam was giving me dirty looks about half way there.

The guys were pushing hard at the Parking deck. There are a few more turns in that deck than I remember.

My plan for the Pit seemed like a good idea until half way through the pit, I realized there was about 2 inches of mud to crawl through. I Q’ed it, called it and must complete it. I wasn’t backing down from a little frozen mud. The PAX on the other hand, were much smarter.

It was a pleasure leading the men in the gloom.

Special Prays for Mermaid on his knee and Mighty Mite and his family on his grandmother passing.
