#RED – Remember Everyone Deployed

18 PAX came together on a muggy Friday morning to venture out to uncharted territory at Centurion. YHC arrived to do a Pre-Run at 5:00, but was met with a dark and desolate parking lot. Copa America and NBA Finals must have kept everyone up late.

The Thang:

Mosey .75 miles up Little Ave, across Carmel Rd, down Carmel Executive Park Dr. to Hwy 51. to grassy area near Fire station #24 on Hwy. 51. Along the way do karaoke left 50 yards X 2 and karaoke right 50 yards X 2

  • Do 11 Merkins IC (22 total – to honor the 22 servicemen that commit suicide everyday #Kill22) then hold it. Go to 6 inches for 22 seconds. Hold it in plank
  • Do 12 Mountain Climbers IC (24 total to honor Fire Station #24)

Mosey a little further down Hwy.51. YHC bluffed that we may be headed to Day Zero AO, but came in the back way to a business park just before McMullen Creek. Ended up at the bottom of a hill at Shannon Willow Rd.

Partner Up for Catch Me if You Can.

P1 runs the hill backwards, P2 does 3 HR Burpees then runs forward to catch P1

Keep switching until you reach the top of the hill.

Repeato 3 more times (for a total of 4 times up the hill)

Mosey down Bannington to Hwy. 51

Stop at grassy area by Fire station again. Do 11 Merkins IC (22 total) hold for 22 seconds and 12 Mountain Climbers IC (24 total).

Continue down Hwy 51, cross Carmel, and cut through Panera Bread parking lot to McMahan Dr. next to a large rock pile

Partner Up again (same partners) for Quail Plaza 200. With a rock, partners do a combined 200 Squats, 200 American Hammer, and 200 Shoulder Presses.

Partner 1 runs up McMahan turns left by bank, goes around stone wall and back to start.

Partner 2 starts with exercises then runs when partner gets back.

While waiting for last couple to finish, most of the Pax did 30 Freddy Mercury IC with a 30 second leg hold at 6 inches

Mosey back to start. Pax who didn’t wear red did 5 burpees (with a couple of Refusnicks)

YHC originally had planned to spend the morning at the parking deck, but decided to mix it up and go to a new area. Abacus had the running distance at 3.2 miles. The theme of this workout is Remember Everyone Deployed. Most of the Pax got the twitter memo and wore red. Check out #Kill22 on twitter that is bringing awareness to our Veterans. 22 Veterans take their life everyday in America due to PTSD. Also, let’s remember and pray for our First Responders. With all the craziness going on (nationally and locally), they are always on the front lines. 3 local firefighters have died in the last month.

Check out the Mud Gear Store for cool Red F3 shirts.

The Brave and Centurion are going to meet up at the Greenway parking lot on Johnston Rd. on August 12th.

Thank you to Checkpoint for the moving take out.

That one hurt. Four backwards runs with HR burpees was bad enough and they you added the rock work. Abacus wasn’t thinking ahead when he picked a bolder for our team. Luckily for me he was pounding out the rock exercises hard.

Ran the Cuda (sans Cuda) run last night for 4.5 miles so a pre-run was out of the question. Barely made it 45 minutes this am. No where near BRR shape.

Oh, good. It wasn’t just me that was toast by the end.
Not a very nice Father’s Day gift for the War Daddy. Just sayin’
