My SL bro had the Q stick for Soul2Sole this morning so we planned a mini convergence the night before…

WARMUP: Dynamic warmup including some mosey, some toy soldiers, high knees, and butt kickers

Then met with the Soul2Sole crew at entrance to football stadium and circled up for SSH, WM, IW, MNC, LSS all IC.

100 squats – while 2 of the PAX did farmers carry up the hill with sandbag/ruck
150 merkins – while 2 of the PAX did bear hug carry up the hill with sandbag/ruck

arranged into 3 groups of 5 PAX and rotated throwing the sandbag up and down the hill

S2S left back to Kingsley about 540 so I had 20 minutes left

Headed for the steep hill that leads to the handicap parking/entrance to the football field

mosey to bottom – crawl bear to the top – bunny hops to the bottom – 20 LBC IC – sprint to the top – bear crawl to the bottom – NUR to the top – 20 flutters IC

Goat Track

Leave a comment

WARMUP:
– SSH x30
– Merkins x10
– Peter Parkers x10
– Windmills x10
THE THANG:
Ran to Fort Mill Golf Club which has apparently moved to Augusta National status because we were turned away by the guy pulling the carts out. So a quick audible turned us around and headed back to the top of the steep hill on Withers St.

Here we would still play golf on something not nearly as nice as the course we planned to play. Nasty courses are commonly referred to as Goat Tracks.

9 Holes of Golf:
– Top of the hill is the tee box (perform 2 squats for the first hole, 4 for the second, etc.)
– Circular grass island in front of Fort Mill Baptist Church is the green (1 burpee for the first hole, 2 for the second, etc.)
– Run back and forth between the two points to complete 9 holes.

Most people got through the 7th hold before we needed to call it to mosey back.

MARY:
Took turns calling exercises for 5 min
