The Green Monster



The Green Monster

7 Men Showed up at WAMRAP this morning.  A record???  I don’t know, it was close.  McGee was out fighting a cold.  Gypsy was and HC but got turned around this morning due to a “Personal Situation”  He’s said it’s all good now.  So I’ll just assume what you all are already assuming: He had to drop a deuce.  So it was 9 PAX in spirit.

Disclaimer:  Wait 20 seconds as O’Tannenbaum comes in hot.  Go.

The Thang (See there’s no COP at WAMRAP)

Run over to the Green Monster in Rea Farms.  Basically a huge flat grass rectangular field that is at least ⅓ mile in perimeter.

First lap together, 5 Reps of each exercise.

Corner 1:  Dips

Midpoint: Jump Squats

Corner 2: Merkins

Corner 3:  Flutter Kicks

Midpoint:  Mountain Climbers

Corner 4: Burpees (unwritten WAMRAP requirement that there is burpees)

Now get after it.  As many rounds as possible, with an escalator clause.  Every round add 5 more to each excerise.

With 4 minutes left we ran back to launch.

Moleskine:

Most guys got to the 7th round, but all conveniently finished with not enough time to complete the 35 burpees at the last stop.

Flipper continued his half workout, half stretching, half recovery technique as he heals up from injury.  Glad to see you aren’t staying all snuggled up in bed at home through recovery and still come to join the PAX.

MAD is becoming a regular.  Hard to recognize him without the ruck, but he kept moving.

O’Tannenbaum continues to be our resident RESPECT out at WAMRAP with steady work and always a grin.  Looks like he’s up to something.

Turkey Leg and Squid hung tight.  Not sure if TL slowed down to perfect form with Squid or Squid finally gave in to the rest of us knuckleheads and let his idyllic form slide.

I hung with Purell, a combination of him slowing his running pace to make me feel good about myself and my short-arm burpee advantage.

If you haven’t been to a WAMRAP you don’t know what your missing.  Good fellowship, large AO, you vs. you vs. some other dudes to push yourself.  Plus we keep the group in a relatively compact area so everyone stays in the same vicinity.

 

Announcments:

Continued prayers for Huggie Bear and Cooter as they recover from surgery yesterday.

 

Thanks to Squid for the takeout.
