QIC:Splash
PAX:Splash, Agassi, Jazzy, Reluctant Yankee, Hawgcycle, Roots, Douille, Bad Moon, Revelry

Pre-Thang

Nice and muggy as always.  Reluctant Yankee rolled in hot wielding the flag with only 15 seconds to spare before the 5:30am mark according to Roots.  Hawgcycle apparently thinks Roots is all fancy with his exact time on the seconds.

Warm-Up

Mosey over to Wolfpack Lawn Stairs for a 3-part escalator:

  • OYO: 10 Wide Merikans, jog up stairs, 10 Merikans, jog to corner, 10 Diamond Merikans, duck walk to the tree, jog to start point – Repeat x 2

The Thang

Mosey over to Wolfpack Hill and up the ramps to 4th floor.  Mumble chatter from Reluctant Yankee about a long mosey.  YHC says to get over it.  PAX lines up on wall in Prayer Squat position while first of member runs stairs.  When runner gets back up the stairs, PAX flapjacks to LBCs while next runner hits the stairs.  Continue flapjacking between Prayer Squat and LBCs until everyone has completed stairs once.

Slow decent down Wolfpack Hill with jelly legs and mosey over to Green Wave ROTC pull-up bars for some circuit training:

  • Sprint across the street to stop sign on Loyola campus and back, Pull Ups AMRAP, Dips AMRAP, Reverse LBC (leg raises) AMRAP – cycle through each exercise once

Mosey over to the bike racks underneath Wolfpack Mountain for some Mary:

  • COP IC: Flutter Kicks x 20, Vladimir Putin (Russian) Twists x 15, Pickle Pounders x 10, Real Freddie Mercury x 15

Mosey back to the flag.  Sudden change as 2 cars passed means 10 Burpees.

Circle up around the flag for a quick plank-o-rama.

Name-O-Rama: 9 showed up this fine morning.

Shout Out: YHC titled the workout “Splishy Splashy” in hopes that his Dad would come along this morning and be dubbed this name especially after Reluctant Yankee’s dad showed up one Saturday calling himself Yankee Doodle Diddy.  After learning about his Dad’s work schedule the last couple of months, YHC did not want to EH him too bad so he could have a relaxing weekend.  Since YHC’s parents decided to pay a visit in NOLA, this shout out is in reflection of those who raised or guided all of us to where we are today.  Moving into the weekend, YHC encourages the PAX to take a moment of reflection on those who raised you.  Without them, none of us would probably be here in the Gloom today.
