BTW Wall Walks are Good for the Soul

13 PAX gathered at MRHS once Doc McStuffins made his normal arrival at 0530 hours on Wednesday.  Bratwurst had the SF planted firmly in the soil and we had a solid group ready to roll.  Time to make the doughnuts, or at least break a sweat.

Disclaimer was properly delivered and YHC made sure everyone knew I was not a professional, just acting like one for the next 45 minutes.  With all that behind us, we launched for a nice jog across the student parking lot and headed over to the front of the high school at Marvin Ridge.

COP:

  • SSH x 25 IC
  • IW x 25 IC
  • Squats x 15 IC
  • Merkins x 15 IC
  • MC x 20 IC
  • Dolly x 20 IC
  • Flutter x 20 IC

Continue the jog around the side of the school and then alternate Lunge Walk and a Jog between the light posts until we made our way to the Globe at the back entrance of the campus.  Time for a little partner work.  We had an odd number so Dasher threw himself on the sword and ran the next portion of the workout on his own.

  • P1 head right out of the traffic circle back down the drive to the 2nd light post and complete 20 Carolina Dry Docks.
  • P2 head left out of the traffic circle behind the school to the sidewalk behind the high school and complete 20 Carolina Dry Docks.
  • Both partners run back to the traffic circle and complete 10 hand slap merkins.
  • Flapjack and complete another round of 20 CDDs and return to the traffic circle to plank for the 6.
  • Rinse & repeat x 2, replacing CDDs with Prisoner Squats and then LBCs.

Time to continue our nice easy mosey around the back of the campus to the patio outside the Middle School gym.  Once at the patio we continued with the partner work.

  • P1 headed over to the back wall of the gym for BTW wall walk.
  • P2 headed to the benches at the tables for dips until P1 was done.
  • Flapjack
  • Rinse & Repeat

PAX were working pretty hard so thought it was time for a little recovery.  Everyone line up on the wall for People’s Chair:

  • PC – 60-75 secs w/ 30 air presses
  • Recover
  • PC – 60-75 secs w/ R Foot up, then L Foot up, then Arms straight out, finally Arms over head
  • Recover

Head back through the bus parking lot (try not to breath in the fumes) towards the launch point.  Once we were back in the high school student parking lot, stopped about 1/2 up the nice incline for abbreviated Ark Loader.  Some chatter about the Q trying to decide what to do next, but just deciding how far to make the next series of movements.

  • Bear Crawl up the hill
  • Jog back down
  • Crab Walk up the hill
  • Jog back down
  • Lunge walk up the hill and then head back to the SF

2 MOM:

  • Rosalita x 15 IC
  • Freddy Mercury x 15 IC

Finito

NMM:

  • Another good crew out for Dromedary this week.  Missing a few of the regulars due to BRR taper, but still had a good crowd.
  • With Doc making it a Baker’s Dozen we had one extra PAX for the partner work.  Dasher was the odd man out and replaced the hand slap merkins with Front Clap Merkins.  Definitely wasn’t just taking it easy out there.
  • So much for tapering for the BRR this weekend.  Bratwurst was there bright and early with the SF and gave consistent effort throughout.
  • Good to have Stump Hugger join us back out in the Gloom.  Working his way back into shape after taking a little time off.  Always a bit more challenging when you have been away for a while.
  • I think it was Backsplash out front for the bear crawl and the crab walk at the end.

Announcements:

  • Dromedary will be converging at Calvary Church (corner of Rea Rd & Hwy 51 – AO of Anvil & the Rock) next week for the Area 51 5-Year Anniversary workout.  Workout will be an hour from 5:15-6:15.  Dromedary will resume at Marvin Ridge on Wednesday, 9/21.
  • Q schedule for Dromedary is open for Sept-Oct.  Let Bratwurst or Bananas know if you want to sign up to Q.  That’s how this system works.  If you have been posting more than 6-7 weeks, you can lead a workout.  Current Qs happy to split a workout with you to allow you to get your feet wet.
  • Convergence to support Army 385th MCT Deployment on 09/13 with the Fort Mill PAX.  Bounty Hunter is QIC & his brother-in-law, Convoy, will serve as guest Q before his unit deploys later this month.  See preblast here:     http://f3nation.com/2016/08/03/convergence-to-support-army-385th-mct-deployment/
