Pulled into The Gibson to find a lone Wild Turkey. I swear I’ve written that line before. This one continues differently though; no other PAX came in hot to spoil our time! There was a light rain, but not enough to force us into the parking decks, at least not right away.
The Thang
Take the long way around Ballantyne Corners and run North up Community House to Endhaven. By the time we reach the Elementary School, we’ve already got a mile under our belts. In the parking lot of the school, we ladder down pull-ups on the playground with a lap around the parking lot between each set.
During laps WT and YHC noticed that the parking lot had a bad ass little obstacle course drawn out on it. Well, bad ass for elementary school kids but we tried our hand at a lap all the same. I really hope a security camera caught the two of us skipping through the parking lot avoiding HOT LAVA!
At this point the light rain had soaked into the clothes decently enough to head under cover of a parking deck. We run back south on Community House and into the parking deck at Potbelly. YHC is telling WT about his ride on the $GME 🚀 last week, all the way UP and all the way back down. Somehow the concept made it into the parking deck work as we start at the bottom. On the ride up the deck, at every level we do 5x diamond to full release and arms out merkins, dubbed the GameStop merkin in reference to wallstreetbet’s emoji lexicon – 💎👐 and 📃👐. If you have no idea what I’m talking about you’re probably better off. The parking deck had 8 levels, so we got in 40 of these merkins. We are now 🚀🌑 and we quickly take the stairs back down to 🌎.
We’ve got about 12 minutes left and head back to launch. I hate sprints, so we do some sprints. Starting at the Genghis Grill side of the parking lot we sprint to the first island in the lot and light jog back to do 5 burpees OYO. We then sprint to the second island and light jog back. 5 burpees OYO. Just enough time to sprint to the end of the parking lot and jog back. 1 minute left for a plank ’til time.
