Pre-Thang – 8 Pax gathered in the Christmas Eve gloom to pre-burn some cals before Christmas food and beers! Zombie was ready to roll after a few weeks off. It was a Chilly 48 degrees and wet after a full day of rain. Still – it didn’t rain on us.
The Thang – Mosey 1/4 mi to the first COP 1 – heading toward the levees
COP 1 – SSH x 30, Merkins x 15, Mountain Climbers x 20, Slow Squats x 25, Peter Parkers x 20, Fast Squats x 20
Mosey to the levee
At the levee – Jacob’s ladder (burpees) to 8. (I know it is normally 7 but we added one) to make it the Chevy to the Levee
Mosey a bit – then
6 Minutes of Mary
1. Jane Fonda both sides x 20 (odd echo off the condo complex along the river – probably woke up the whole building — oops)
2. LBC x 20
3. Russian Twist x 15
4. V Ups x 8 (ouch those really hurt after the twist)
5. Flutter kicks x 20
Mosey to the FLY entrance for some Wile E Coyote’s x 15 – tribute to Keyman
I was informed by FNG – Casey Jones who works with/in trains – at this point that basically this exercise is illegal. Which made me wonder is this the first illegal activity associated with F3? Does Keyman get credit for bringing illegal activity to F3? Why do I want to make sure that I include Coyote’s every exercise now? Do I have to skip it – when ever Casey Jones is around? An interesting dilemma. All I know is that I want to have more Wile E Coyote in my life now that I am breakin’ the law!
Run to statue of Audubon for some birdwatchers – but believe it or not some tomatoes stole our spot! Quickly changed our mosey to the benches in front of the Audubon Zoo.
At the benches – dips, one leg squats (right and left), inclined merkins, declined merkins x 15
Mosey back to the flag for some Plank o rama
Was planning on a 45 sec plank of each position but Amnesty make me feel like a wuss since we did that last time so I bumped it up to 50 secs.
So we did 50 secs of Regular, Southern Gentleman, Yankee Aggressor, and Elbow plank – at this point we missed Hawgcycle singing for us – Roots tried but … well he tried.
After plank o rama we still had 2 minutes so we did a quick sprint around the parking lot and back to the flag.
COT! Shout out by YHC – prayed for positivity and to pull others around us away from negativity during the holidays. Focus on our blessings
