S2S meets the coach’s box

WARMUP: rucks up
THE THANG: ruck towards FMHS, approximately 0.75 miles, the night before I had talked to Badlands to meet with the coach’s box crew at the hill by the football stadium so we can share our gear.
Quick warmup led by Badlands: circled up for SSH, WM, IW, MNC, LSS all IC. We brought 3 sandbags and 6 rucks to the party so we utilized them in a mini-DORA. Instructions were a little mixed up at the beginning because we ended up with 5 groups of 3 PAX… bottom of the hill: 50 burpees – while 2 of the PAX did overhead rifle carry up the hill with sandbag/ruck 100 squats – while 2 of the PAX did farmers carry up the hill with sandbag/ruck 150 merkins – while 2 of the PAX did bear hug carry up the hill with sandbag/ruck, for the final movement we split into 3 groups of 5 PAX and rotated throwing the sandbag up and down the hill

Time to head back to COT, another 0.75 miles to go.
MARY: broga and stretches.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Manion hero Ruck on 9/14.
COT: stays in cot

Tinsel out…

Next, we made our way to the Pull-up bars and grabbed a cindy. 11s, 10 pull-ups, 1 squat thrushers and run down the hill and back up, rinse and repeat -1 pull-ups, +1 Thrusters.
Next, we moseyed to the stop sign near the bus line. Overhead cindy carry stopping at each tree for +1 man-makers (Four trees in total).
Took a couple steps to the main parking lot. One farmer carried two cindies, once shoulder carried one cindy, the other ran to the next lightpost, 5 merkins and return to switch out with the other pax. We snaked around the whole parking lot and returned to the pull up bars for three rounds of curls, bent over rows and run down the hill.
