This morning we pushed ourselves for a long lap around Audubon and The Fly – almost 3.5 miles.  Nice work, men.

We started out with some warmups in place:

  • 20 x SSH
  • 10 seconds of left-leg-over-right followed by 10 of right-over-left
  • 10 x windmills

We then did single line Indian Run to the benches in the front of the park for some more exercises:

  • 20 x step ups per leg
  • 20 x power ups per leg

We then jogged 3 x running men and sprinted 1 x running men until we got to the pull up bars.  We split up into four groups for the following:

  • Group 1: 15 seconds of flexed hang from the pull up bars (this was the count)
  • Group 2: high plank
  • Group 3: mission impossible plank
  • Group 4: pickle pounders

We then double line Indian ran across Magazine Street and into The Fly.  We stopped a few times for sets of 5 x burpees then circled up opposite the fields outside Children’s Hospital for one more round of exercise/Mary:

  • Ring of fire building up to 5 x merkins
  • 10 x LBCs
  • 10 x LBTs

That got us to about 0611, so we moseyed on back to the flag, arriving just in time.  A solid 3.37 miles was completed by all PAX – a great start to Thanksgiving week. We crossed paths with the imminently well mannered Tulane Army ROTC a few times this morning.  Had me wondering how interactions will go with them following this weekend’s Tulane-Navy game…

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone.
