Hair Metal 🎸 and Iron Bells 🔔

It was a wet morning in the fort but the dry humerus chatter kept us warm. A quick warmup and we were off.

Thang: 50 reps of an exercise and then run across the parking lot and nur back. We did this 10 times. It was glorious.

Impossible Island Hopping

WARMUP: moseyed with some stops along the way. No feedback on the cadence calling. The PIP I was on was in full effect. Finished with Bonnie Blairs X 10.
THE THANG: In honor of The Pirate, a 4 corners, 20 reps at each corner. Merkins, Derkins, Heels to Heaven, and Big Boys.

Mosey and Sprints 2X to length of the parking lot changing pace at every island. Another idea taken from Pirate.

Picked two islands to do an Impossible Mile:
First Lap: Burpee Broad Jumps
Second Lap: Lunge Walk
Third Lap: Bear Crawl
Fourth Lap: Mosey.

Everyone LOVED the Impossible Mile.

Truly an honor to GET TO share doing difficult things with these men.
