Is Everybody Happy Now

Is Everybody Happy Now

Nine men sans Mermaid gathered in the gloom for a hump day workout.   YHC had planned a coupon workout to accommodate our regional Nantan on his road to recovery but alas Mermaid phoned in with back issues.    As such, YHC thought he would make the PAX happy by ditching the plan to use the coupons in the trunk and run more than originally planned. However, the bermuda triangle may have made a few grumpy.  Jamboree was ready to run having already run in 3 1/2 miles from his house.    I think he started last night around 10:30.

The Thang:

Mosey around parking lot for COP with SSHx25, Wide Arms X10, Stagger R X10, Stagger L X10, diamonds X10, and jumping lunges X15

Jog across campus to the baseball field for some base work.   Bear crawl to 1st, broad jump burpee to 2nd, crab walk to third, and lunge walk to home base.   Three trips around the bases.

Mosey up to pavilion for jump ups and dips – 10, 20, 30.  Around pavilion for a tabatta wall sit – 20 seconds with one leg lifted, 10 seconds down, repeat 6 times (tabatta is technically 8 but YHC cut it short).

Jog over to other side of church for main event.  Bermuda Triangle with 10 squats at first corner, 10 jumping lunges at 2nd corner, 5 burpees at top of North Face, and complete lap with bear crawl.     Keep running the circuit until Q calls time with most of the pax getting in 5 laps and Lobsta and Thin Mint getting in an extra lap.

Finish with Six Minutes of Mary

Naked Moleskin

Jamboree is looking to win the F3 man over 50 award with 3 1/2 mile run in and back sandwiched around the 45 minute workout.   I guess his wife started beating him in local races so he decided to up his game.  Strong work.

Lobsta and Thin Mint were out front on the bermuda triangle, pushing the pace.   The climb up North Face was brutal and then your prize is 5 burpees.

Appreciate invite from Lobsta to Q.   Great  AO with many options right on campus.

Thanks to Utah for the take out.   I encourage all men to step and volunteer to lead the prayer.   It’s good to hear from different men (I keep saying pretty much the same prayer every time I take it).
