Jack and Dan

Leave a comment

We had 14 men show up at the Minnow Pond flag this morning. @funhouse carried the flag to the AO this morning from his house. @cakeboss launched early continuing his Boston marathon training. After the pledge, we began the journey around town.

1st stop, the pharmacy on 160: Exercise – Jack Webb – 10/40 count (merkins/ O/H Claps)
2nd stop, WEP: Exercise – Ltn Dan – 10/40 count (Squats/Lunges)
3rd stop, Naz Church : Exercise – Jack Webb – 11/44 count.
4th stop, Parking lot across from Little Caesars – Ltn Dan – 11/44 count.
5th stop, parking lot (Watson St): Exercise – Jack Webb – 12/48 count.
6th stop, Footloose: Exercise- Ltn Dan – 12/48 count.
7th stop, parking lot (Watson St): Exercise – Jack Webb – 13/52 count.
8th stop, Footloose: Exercise- Ltn Dan – 13/52 count.
9th stop, parking lot (Watson St): Exercise – Jack Webb – 14/56 count.
10th stop, Footloose: Exercise- Ltn Dan – 14/56 count.
11th stop, Main Street: Exercise – Jack Webb – 15/60 count.
12th stop, COT: Exercise- Ltn Dan – 15/60 count.

Full disclosure: I didn’t feel the workout was difficult enough. I thought I had a great idea to combine running with a Jack Webb and Ltn Dan exercise at each stop, but it just didn’t cut it. We came up short on mileage. We did stick together and figured out some of the more difficult grammatical challenges. If you are like me, I go back to the drawing board and try to do better next time.

Who needs drill bits?

Leave a comment

WARMUP: pledge and run to WEP entrance…got in a few merkins and tree hugging while we waited for 6
THE THANG: we’re doing laps.

At the second swing bench you will stop for 10 merkins and 20 in cadence flutters. Run at a 1 mile pace to first swing bench and dial it back to 5k pace until you reach second bench…that’s pretty much about it.

What I noticed is I ran at the 1 mile faster pace most of the time so didn’t really follow instructions. Also ran low on 3 mile min so tried to have guys run at 3 swing benches but it was a little bit of a lost cause at the end. Headed back at 5:55.
MARY: old bay led some Mary at the end
ANNOUNCEMENTS: definitely
COT: for sho

The Zipper at Minnow Pond

Leave a comment

YHC was excited to join the Pax for Minnow Pond this AM. Prior to the workout, I looked over previous backblasts because I wanted to do the Zipper but wanted to see the level of exercises associated with it. I chose 4 exercises to mix in with the running and get a full body workout.

WARMUP:
Disclaimer, Pledge of Allegiance followed by a mosey to old Hardees parking lot. (Aside – does Fort Mill need a paid parking lot?)

THE THANG:
Run the Zipper which includes Spring Street and the associated side street with 10 merkins, Mtn climbers, squat jumps and big boys at each corner.

Run back to old Hardees at 5:55. Last group of exercises

MARY: Flutters, LBCs and Hello Dollies until the 6 arrives

Mosey home.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Congrats to Dark Helmet as he takes the reins as Nantan of F3 Nation
Read the newsletter as we have lots of activity coming up

Chicken Nuggies

Leave a comment

It was a beautiful rainy morning after the superbowl. Thankful for all the PAX showing up. Quick disclaimer then we crossed 160 to Braden. Every time we passes the sign it was 12 merkins. Run down to the clubhouse for a simple plan in chicken nuggies increments:
6 burpees, 12 mtn climbers, 18 LBCs, run loop clockwise. Loop is up hill to sign, right down 160 to next Braden entrance, take a right and follow Emory back to clubhouse. 6 jump squats, 12 CDDs, 18 American Hammers, run loop in opposite direction. Keep repeating until time. Jog back to rainy COT. Gazelles got 5 loops in, others got less but everyone put the work in. Thanks for the nod Badlands!
