Warm-a-Rama:
Worms still had the flag held hostage, so we met where we felt the flag would be. It was early and cool, so we got warm by doing the following:
- Capri Lap – a little mosey. We ran to a little hill near Perkins Road. There was actual light here.
- SSH – 20x
- Butt Kicks – 20x
- High Knees – 15x
- Al Gores – 10X.
- Merkins – 10x
- Bobby Hurleys – 10x
- Burpees – 5
The Thang:
Perkins Road was a little loud, so we ran over to another little spot under a tree. With no light. While there, we found the sand volleyball court. It was tempting, but we stuck to the script (maybe next time).
- 30 Al Gores
- 30 Lunges
- 30 Merkins
- 30 LBCs – We all sat on our 6, nervous that we were about to sit on an ant pile. Rumor has it that everyone made it out ok.
We then moseyed back to normal spot near playground. We did a mix-up version of stairway to 7 (or stairway to hell, as Rocket calls it). We ran from parking lot to driveway. Once there, did 1 burpee. Then ran back for 5 Merkins. Ascended to 5 burpees and descended to 1 merkin. T-Claps to Topanga and Duracell for running at top speed, while talking somehow.
Finished with a little Tunnel of Love. After what seemed like 10 minutes, we looked at our progress and it appeared we had only moved about 10 yards. Shoulders were burning. Definitely feeling the love. So we spaced out our tunnel. Finished strong.
It was fun.
Mary:
Everyone led a Mary exercise:
- Fastball – American Hammers – 20 count
- Dagwood – Leg Lift – 20
- Shangeaux – Jane Fondas (or “Our Sweet Jane” as Shangeaux called it) – 12x
- Rocket- Jane Fonda (change over)
- Topanga – Instead of ABCs, we spelled out Josh Black.
- Duracell – Bicycles – 20x
- Big Easy – LBCs – 25x
