Thriple Nickel

Date: 2025-06-26 AO: the-phoenix Q: midriff PAX: wildturkey, Melons FNGs: None COUNT: 3 WARMUP: In the parking lot to give late pax a chance to arrive. After 2 minutes, we’re on our way to the trails. Cross the river, through the woods and here we are at Community House Middle School running track. THE THANG: Today’s theme is partner-related exercises. How to do this with a threesome? Get creative and modify. Wheelbarrow carries 50 meters, roll into BBSUs, wheelbarrow carry back, then more BBSUs. Team leap frog 100 meters, then Indian run (with burpees) around the track. Triple broad jump burpees for 100 meters, h/t to SweetWater for the recommendation. Elbow plank while one pax sprints 50 meters and sprints 50 meters back. Another lap around the track, this time stopping for 5x plankjack shoulder taps, which proved to be next to impossible for wildturkey to execute. Save the best for last: partner carries around the track, then 2 final rounds of bear crawl and BBSUs. Time to make our way home to launch, this time with a bit more light on the trails to guide our return. MARY: She was with us on the track before we scared her off. ANNOUNCEMENTS: Run your race and challenge yourself: Horsey McHorseArse, Mountain Rumble, Ultra50k – plenty of silly options out there. COT: Thanks wildturkey for the opportunity to step in and lead. Couldn’t think of a better way to start the day. Keep crushing it Melons, great to have you out at The Phoenix!
