So as 23 PAX gathered in the short-lived gloom, YHC reminded everyone that this month\u2019s ISI challenge is 10,000 Merkins in one month.\u00a0 Quite the task as that equates to an average of 333.33 merkins\/day for those who are mathematically challenged.\u00a0 Merkins were promised and as you will soon see,\u00a0 Merkins were delivered.\u00a0 After the standard disclaimer, we were off!<\/p>\n

Mosey around entrance to Golf Club and then to front of bandstand for Warm Up:<\/p>\n

\n
• Hillbillies X 20 IC<\/li>\n
• Windmills X 15 IC<\/li>\n
• Imperial Walkers X20<\/li>\n
• Forward Arm Circles X15<\/li>\n
• Reverse Arm Circles X15<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

  Then short Mosey to Oak Alley for Red Barchetta (went deep in Exicon for this one).\u00a0 Apparently it\u2019s supposed to get your heart racing like a \u201cRush song”.<\/p>\n

  \n
  • Start at 1^{st<\/sup> light run to last light for 100 SSH<\/li>\n}
  • Run back to starting point<\/li>\n
  • Run to 2^{nd<\/sup> to last light for 75 Mountain Climbers<\/li>\n}
  • Run back to starting point<\/li>\n
  • Run to 3^{rd<\/sup> to last light for 50 LBC\u2019s<\/li>\n}
  • Run back to starting point<\/li>\n
  • Run to 4th to\u00a0last light for 25 merkins<\/li>\n
  • Last is 10 Burpees<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    I agree the routine got the heart racing, but even though I’m a fan of Red Barchetta, I think this Rush song seems more appropriate:<\/p>\n
