Next we made our way to the lower lot with the wall near the Springs building.

What idiot called this?

Leave a comment

PAX showed up expecting for Shady to be on Q (which explains the large numbers). They had to settle for me, but I’m just happy to be Shady’s understudy. Hope he gets back to 100% soon

WARMUP:
SSH, IW, HW, Shoulder Taps, Peter Parker, Parker Peter, Merkin

THE THANG:
Extra weight. PAX had rucks, sandbags, and bells galore in honor of Gear MAYhem

3 groups
1 took a lap and did swings for the 6
2 groups carried weight the length of the parking lot, did 10 merkins, 15 squats, and came back.

Then we rotated. After everyone got to run we add weight

Between each set of 3 rounds:
(With no extra weight on)
5 manmakers
5 cleans (each side)
5 overhead presses (each side)

We got through 3 sets of 3 rounds

At one point during set 3, I causally and in a very neutral tone mentioned that my grip was shot. Vuvuzela pointed out that he’d never heard anybody gripe about their own Q so much. Maybe I mentioned something earlier too?

MARY: Uhaul Q-jacked for Mary a little early by my clock, but he doesn’t like manmakers.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: read the newsletter, lots of community impact going on!

COT: doing one thing really well is better than 5 things done halfway. Bear reminded us today that form matters. Do a good squat.

WARMUP: run up the big hill, merkins (10), mountain climbers (20), little stretching, low slow squats (10), windmills (8), distraction 1 —> car drove by = 1 burpee
THE THANG: distractions.
– For every car or plane we saw or heard = 1 burpee that increased by 1. We made it to 10 burpees by the end. There was a 10 second buffer as well as a max out of 3 cars as we approached areas where more cars would be seen. No planes so that was weird.
– Light posts = 10 merkins. Treated these in clusters since there are a lot of lights and yes, lights had to be on.
– “Fort Mill” signs = 30 LBCs.
– Doors to the school, or any door = 20 squats. Again, clusters because there are a lot of doors. – Benches = 20 step ups total.
– Parking spots that had a 1 + 0 = 10 bomb jacks. Max of 3 sets in 1 area as this added up quickly.
– overall, we ran all over campus in a bit of a scavenger hunt / bingo / distraction mentality
MARY: made up for some MARY with a final set of squats and final set of 10 burpees
ANNOUNCEMENTS: AKA, bourbon tasting, Doty race…read your newsletter
COT: distractions are too easy throughout your day. What are you doing to be focused if you have a goal? Do you have a way to “remind” you? Do you write this “thing” on a piece of paper and look at it throughout your day? Do you look your M or 2.0s in the eye when they are speaking to you? Are you present or distracted and do you know it?
