Bagpipe

A lucky 13 of us made our way to the parking garage this morning.  The PAX knew right away we had a little extra morning when we turned left out of the parking lot… fortunately no one turned around.

The Thang:

Mosey to PF Chang’s parking lot for warm-up:

  • SSH X 25
  • IW X 20
  • Merkins X 15
  • Mountain Climbers X 20

Run to bottom of parking deck, 20 merkins and 20 Peter Parkers

Form a line across a straightaway

  • Lunge halfway, sprint to the end, jog back
  • Bear crawl halfway, sprint to the end, jog back
  • Broad jump halfway, sprint to the end, jog back
  • Lunge halfway, sprint to the end, jog back

Mosey up one level for Mary

  • Dolly X 20
  • LBCs X 20
  • Flutter X 20

Mosey up a level and partner up

Set of merkins before leaving the garage and head home.  Six inches and protractor until all make it back.

Good job everyone who came out.  Nobody likes the running and the leg work but we need it!  Happy as always to lead and appreciate the support of the group.
