Yesterday morning, YHC was joined by 8 #HIM for a recon of Rock Hill’s newest AO – to be named at a later date. The conditions were nearly fall-like and the AO was pristine. 3 miles and one hour after we started, we knew we found Rock Hill’s newest Saturday attraction.
The Thang
Since this was a recon, we all took a turn leading exercises. We first ran to from ATC to the band practice field where we did 25 pullups OYO. I think we may have done some MNC, Merkins, IW, Windmills, and SSHs.
- We moseyed to a hill above the track for a burpee/merkin ladder.
- Then came the tennis court seats for box jumps, merkins, derkins, and dips.
- We moseyed to the baseball field before we realize we were locked out. Instead we opted for 75 calf raises on the benches between the schools and People’s Chair in cadence.
- Next stop was the bleachers at the soccer fields for 3 rounds of running up and down the steps.
- We found a trail back into Meadowlakes II where we did Hello Dollies, American Hammers, an odd variation of Box Cutters, and a few other exercises in quiet cadence as to not wake the neighbors.
- Then it was back to the school for more running of the stairs and a variety of other forgotten exercises.
- Back to ATC for sprints in the corridor followed by Merkin Jacks and Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes.
- We took a final mosey back to the globe at ATC where we closed with prayers and praises.
NMM
Color me shocked that it took us 2+ years to recon this location. This one has more fields and real estate than any other AO in the city. I assure you Northwestern High will become one of the favorites in Rock Hill when it goes live 10/8/16.
What a blessing yesterday was. Perfect weather, great spot, and even better PAX. Very excited to see our region continue expansion opportunities. As we get closer to launching and naming this AO, reach out to Peach if you want to get on the Q schedule. This one is sure to be a crowd pleaser.

I live 2 miles from Northwestern and have worked out there many times over the last couple of years. There are some hills located on the back side of the track (hidden from normal view)that are particularly well suited for F3 workouts and the track is well maintained. If I had known you were going to scout NW as an AO, I would have joined you and showed you some of the areas I use. Rawlinson Rd. Middle School can also be incorporated into the AO for additional running and hill work.
