Thrills, Chills & Spills

Thrills, Chills & Spills

Pre-Run – Murderhorn Mosey
I promised a pre-run of Murderhorn repeats starting at 0500. I started alone, but upon my fourth ascension, Nard Dog appeared out of the mist to finish the climb and join me for a lap about Regal Cinemas. He took a second lap as a greeted the Pax and reset my phone.

Slipper-gate
As the crowd grew, Strawberry exited Heartbreaker’s car, but Heartbreaker peels off. Does he have to find a bathroom? No, he’s still wearing his slippers. After the disclaimer and on the way to COP, I told Frehley the story, but I’m not sure he believed me.

COP – All the Jacks
We trekked from Regal Cinema to the far side of Target for COP. One of the easiest, yet most maligned exercises in the side straddle hop. Rumors persist this exercise is dangerous. I’m not buying it.
– Side straddle hops x 10
– Seal jacks x 10
– Plank jacks x 10
– Smurf jack x 10
– Crab jacks x 10
That’s all the jacks. If I missed one, sound off in the comments.

Route 66
By now, you’ve visited the six speed bumps behind the Stoncrest Strip Mall. Do 1 burpee at the first speed bump, 2 at the second adding one additional at the subsequent bumps. After the burpees on sixth bump, about face and continue back to start for a total of 66 burpees. Heartbreaker conveniently arrives post-burpees with shoes, not slippers.

From the back of Target, we slogged all the way back to the western wall of Regal Cinema.

Thanks to the steady veteran crew today. We worked hard, stayed together and didn’t cheat to finish first (pet peeve). I always try to have a little fun, crab jacks had Frehley laughing and a new exercise – cliff climbers.
