4 highly motivated ruckers met up with YHC at our new designated meet up spot.
We started off with a lite warmarama due to mostly everyone being there and us having to cover a lot of ground this morning. We ended up doing a 5 count or so of self love before we headed north on Audubon Ave.
The rules were explained on the way, we would be doing 10 burpees each time we crossed paths with a fire hydrant and 10 squats each time we came up on red and white street sign. The first leg of our journey heading North past John L Guidry stadium had a couple streets signs but we did not hit the first fire hydrant till we hit a double near Chick-fil-A and the student union. YHC quickly learned that 10 burpees with a ruck sack on takes more time than we would have therefore YHC graciously dropped the count from 10 to 5 burpees. The Pax was moving at a pretty good clip until we hit another hydrant located between the chapel and St. Thomas Aquinas which we did 5 genuflections along with our 5 burpees. The Pax continued on our journey and headed east on Glenwood drive where we found 3 more hydrants and we headed south down N Acadia Drive for the second half of our ruck. Around Yankee Jeaux’s building YHC looked at his watch which revealed 0545 and YHC pretty much nixed the rest of the burpees. We past between Swanner field and campus police station and headed toward the path behind the outfield of Ray E. Didier field. Once we hit the path behind the outfield it was a mad dash of a walk back to the metaphorical flag. We made it back for 0605 and did COT and named the new AO the colosseum and ManEater prayed us out. All in all the Pax knocked a little over 2 miles and did 40 burpees, 80 or so squats and 5 weighted genuflections. Not to bad for a day off.
