The disclaimer was short and there was no warm-up.
The Thang
A Murph.
- 1 mile run on the track around Pontiff
- 100 Pull-ups
- 200 Merkins
- 300 Squats
- 1 mile run on the track around Pontiff
We partitioned the exercises in reps of 5-10-15. I think we all modified the pull-ups in some form or fashion: jump pull ups, legs on the slide or step, not going all the way up, negatives, etc.
Tool, still recovering, rode his bike to the AO and then did the exercises sans runs. T-claps to Tool for keeping at it while injured. Glad to hear he was able to run the Turkey Day race with no issues.
Everyone pushed hard and finished strong. The first mile was just a little over an 8:00 pace. Below are our unofficial times:
- Hawg – 43:16
- JV – 43:41
- War Eagle – 44:31
- Rev Sox – 44:36
The Murph is tough, especially the pull-ups. Kudos to the men that came out to do it today. That’s how we get better.
