With the leaves falling, and that pre-dawn glow in the air, it sure seemed like a fall day, until HYC stepped out of the air conditioning and got blasted by a 85* humid morning! The leaves weren’t falling from crisp fall air, but from dying in the heat! It was prefect looks for a fall Back to School day, but definitely not the air temperature!
Since Murdock was down in Buenos Ares, YHC choose a Back-to-School theme versus a Beach Body workout so running could incorporated. (Murdock is recovering from ankle surgery).
At 5:30 YHC began, thinking maybe some more would be late. Alas, it would be a lonely back to school day!
Warm Up – good mornings, toy soilders, world’s greatest, squat to raise the roof
First thing, yhc was excited for school, so he sprinted across the lawn!
Followed by Math class: a round of 11’s squats / merkins
Then on to Spelling with some ABCs – laying on the ground and spell the alphabet with your legs, a good ab killer!
It was time for a break, so on to Recess and Lunch! Sprint around the circle sidewalk, stopping four times for some a set of crab cakes!
Then Social Studies with Around the World lunges!
And finished out by dissecting that frog in Science class, three rounds of star jumps and crunchy frogs!
This brought me to 6:00 so I rounded out some Extra Credit, and went for a 1 mile jog to finish out on time! Thoroughly drenched with sweat, I had a good beatdown and formulated some plans for future beatdowns!
Till next time in the Gloom!
