Average age, 49, a bit young for my Q’s.
The youngster, Ruby Slippers let the way, followed by … everyone, he lead the way.
Soup To Nuts was notably near the front of the pack. Yes, he is the guy that delivers that huge Uline catalog to your mailbox every month.
YHC was the sweeper, apparently that is another way of say you are last, who knew.
The Thang:
We started with a short mosey to the Sugar Creek Elementary back lot, mostly for the light, I’m scared of the dark.
7 minutes of warm-up, windmill, SSH, other stuff. When we did the Hillbilly Walker, the mumble chatter was about Tennessee, OK South Carolinians.
Then back to the top of the hill. The board said 5-10-15-20 of each exercise, 5 at the top, same 5 at the bottom, 5-10 and the top, 5-10 at the bottom, and so on. There was also extra credit when you were done, for fast guys, I’m looking at you Ruby Slippers.
Some did burpees, some put their hands on the curb and did bunny hops, it was cute. I’ll grade YHC with a C- on burpees, done, was all of them with about 1/2 of them correct-ish and 1/2 – 1/2 arsed.
Other stuff, super hard core, liver eater stuff, jump squats, merkins, shoulder taps, pull-ups, you know. Just kidding, I’ve never done a pull-up in my life.
There was a lively discussion about counting, apparently touching one shoulder is a complete shoulder tap, who knew. I guess next time we just touch the left should 20 times and call it a day.
Then some curb and bear crawl stuff
Then the board flipped, another set of 5-10-15-20. This time we did not accumulate, but did go up and down the hill with only one exercise each trip.
That is about all we had time for, YHC was sweaty and hot as balls, dang weather is saweeet!
Return to Mary was 1.2 exercises and the clock struck 6.
Right about now, Saw Dust is under the knife for a toe deal, send prayers his way. Next week he will be hitting abs on a yoga mat at an undisclosed location … if you see him, join him for an LBC.
This was my first trip to Varsity, makes me want to change up the schedule, good so see some faces that I normally do not see.
Looks like we made it,
Barry Manilow
