When Italian Job reached out looking for someone to pick up his Q at the Pantheon, I jumped at the chance. Having posted at the Pantheon several times, I knew the reputation and what the Pax expect, so had some trouble filling out the Wienke. However watching the Olympics the night before game me all the inspiration I needed.

Once the cars started rolling in, we had 15 Pax ready to tackle this Olympic inspired workout.

We started by celebrating Michael Phelps winning his 20th and 21st gold medals the night before with 21 merkins. Once that was done we were off.

The Thang

Quick mosey around the outer car loop with some butt kickers and high knees and then circle up.

COP
Wind Mill X10
Moroccan Nightclubs X20
Mountain Climbers X15
Imperial Walkers x15

I threw in 5 burpees between each exercise to really get the heart pumping. Always a crowd pleaser. 

Quick mosey to soccer field for some Olympic swimming action:

4×100 Individual Medley

Pax would travel from each soccer goal using 4 different modes of transportation

Broad Jump Burpees (Butterfly)
Backwards Run (Back Stroke)
Lt. Dan’s (Breathestroke)
Sprint (Free Style)

Quick 10 Count and Rinse and Repeat with:

Bear Crawl (Butterfly)
Backwards Run (Back Stroke)
Gorilla Crawl (Breathestroke)
Sprint (Free Style)

Another ten count and we were off to the next event.

4×100 Relay Medley

Pax partnered up and received one coupon each. While one partner performed the exercise the other pattern did Burpee Suicides (one Burpee at each of the 4 cones). All exercises were to an aggregate total of 100. Exercises were:

Coupon Swings X100
Squats X100
Curls X100
Overhead Press X100

We had some time left over so we went to the wall for some BTW. Then we headed to COT.

Great job by all Pax today. A lot of grunting and groaning but no one quit and everyone finished.
