With RCR in full swing, a few pax arrived early and ready to hit the ground running, pun intended.
The group started out with a typical warm up of some SSH, Grass Grabbers, Windmills, Imperial Walkers, and Arm Circles. To keep gaining miles, we added 2 “Forks” to the warmup, which includes a run around the track where each pax sprints for the 100 m stretches and slowly jogs the turns.
After the warm up, the group engaged in a crowd favorite – Mama’s Pride’s Ladder consisting of Merkins, Jump Squats, BBSUs, Commando Planks, and Kick Throughs. After each cycle, Pax rand 400m and performed 5 burpees. The workouts started with 15 reps of each exercise and added 5 reps after each run around the track.
After 20 minutes, the group ran another lap and performed another Fork before finishing up with a friendly game of Ultimate Football.
The pre-run group hit just at 4 miles, except for Saban, who decided he needed to run more because he’s Saban. Overall, it was as pleasant as it sounds.
