Fuzzy balls and random things

WARMUP: we had 3 track runners and 3 boot campers…so the runners ran away. SSH right out of the gate, merkins, low slow squats, maybe a burpee…sadly didn’t write down the warmup and I don’t remember but it was cold – I remember that part…and we ran away trying to get warm.
THE THANG: pearls on a string was the jam.
5 burpee, run. Saw some benches so did 10 step ups (or 20 if you’re Twister) and 10 dips…then saw a random fence with a swing and a ball and junk inside the locked gate – weird.

10 bomb jacks to go with 5 burpees…more running to other school where twister had to make a pit stop. So Sugar and YHC did more dips on the curb and then added 15 gorilla jumps (squat jump but you touch the ground with your hand), then the 10 BJ, then 5 burpees….more running.

Back of school added 20 merkins, then 15, 10, 5. Ran back up to middle school by the gym and found more benches for step ups and dips – 10 each. Then did 25 LBCs, 20-5 of the above exercises.

Ran down the cool bridge tunnel thing to the field for 20 flutters – and all the above. Saw our friends running so joined them for a lap.

15 hammers once we left the field and cross the bridge – and then all the above. Then ran back to COT.
MARY: quick round robin of Mary where Twister was happy his infamous gas pumpers got to be called out.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: most definitely
COT: cmon man

Who needs drill bits?

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

~Alabama Route

Alabama route was called, with some tweaks to get us to 6 miles. Several pax started early and/or ran late to get up to 12 miles. YHC took video of the most pax, and thus felt inclined to post this backlist.

The Zipper at Minnow Pond

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
