Conversations with middle aged men

Started with a nice warmup basic

SSH
Windmill
Mnt climbers
Stretching
Merkins
Night clubs

Moseyed to a steep hill. Did hill repeats where we alternated between merkins and sit-ups. Then ran all the way to the other hill and did more of the same.

Got back to the parking lot where we did a triangle top was burpees the other two points were flutters and HR merkins. After 5 rounds of that… got to the basketball court where we did about 15 minutes of core/abs work.

Solid workout better mumblechatter!

Tortoise and Hare pre-yog

Accepted this Q invite before I realized it was same day as the Tortoise and Hare CSAUP. No worries – all bad decisions can be compounded with other bad decisions so decided to let her rip.

A few PAX were out running already when we started. For normal start time PAX, 2 went trails and 5 hit the streets.

Trail – enter kingsley and immediate right – continue to dogwood and stay right on dogwood all the way to Cantrell ave where you will get on Muscadine. Stay course until you get to Azalea where you will find your way back to the spillway. you will hop on Haigler and go around lake and get to timberline and bring you back to Kingsley and back to CoT.

Road – get on 160 and dodge traffic over I77. Left on sutton rd then right on front st into baxter. Continue onto settlers height/Stratford run/harvest point until you reach the end. Turn around and come back

Thanks for the opportunity to lead!

communication is key

WARMUP: Intro, mosey, warmup on the hill next to the church then mosey to church.
THE THANG: Thang 1: Deliberately gave confusing ab instructions with a run but ended with 300 reps for Leg lifts, American Hammers and LBC. Talked about the message of communication being vital. Especially with our kids, M’s, jobs and as leaders.
Thang2: Mosey to Walgreens to the side road between buildings. Picked Pax to give 20 reps of an ab exercise and sprint to the other side. Rinse and repeat 4 times. Again, clear communication needed.
Thang 3: Mosey to HT and to the wall near the Auto shop. Split Pax up on opposite walls and bear crawled towards each other having to communicate so heads did not get hit.
MARY: Mosey to COT, and BW lead is brogo for cool down.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: AMRAMP for Autism, Q School, Ass Kicking April and Rock Hill 10 year.
COT: Prayers for health, communication with kids and patience.
