Date: 2025-02-08 AO: _sob Q: C3P0 PAX: kirby, super trooper, Odd Job, Roulette, Palmolive FNGs: None COUNT: 6 WARMUP: prompt start :30 past the hour, we had an easy mosey to the parking lot by US Bank. Circle up for 20x: SSH, IW, PP, MC with some runner’s stretch along the way
THE THANG: mosey to the playground, pair up & do two round circuit: 10 hanging leg raises (timer) One leg toe touch Negative pull ups (modify as needed – we did)
Mosey to parking lot by yoga studio and begin the Settler Circuit of Suck:
Each round starts with mosey with one “settler” who sprints far enough ahead of the pack to stop and do 5 reps of the next exercise. The PAX catch up and everyone does the next set of exercises which was an increasing ladder. Each run starts with a new settler & add one exercise to the list. FYI, Bear Burp is like a burpee, but instead of kicking the feet out back, you bear crawl out on your hands, so all the fun of a burpee without slamming your toes into the pavement.
Exercise ladder: 5 Bear Burp 10 Bonnie Blair 10 Merkin 10 Mountain Climber 10 Freddy Mercury 10 Squat 10 Air humper 10 Mike Tyson 10? Calf Raises
And mosey back to COT
MARY: IC, 20x LBC, 15 H2H, 15 Dolly
MOLESKIN: Kirby, who already satisfied his needs for exercising with a 7m pre-run, generously tagged along sharing his Nantan knowledge, wisdom and observations – highlights of which were spotting an old condom and nearby NutterButter wrapper, and pondering if the two were somehow related. That and something about the Mandela effect – I forget what, or maybe I just imaged it – we were on round 7 by then and I was losing track of which exercise was next.
I think we all got in a little work, and definitely had some fun (big heart pictures to prove it). Thanks Palmolive for forcing me to Q so I have to show up. Good to see everyone Odd Job super trooper, Roulette and even kirby
