Why do we keep running past the destinations

Leave a comment

WARMUP: walkers, windmills, Peter parkers, up and down dog stretches
THE THANG:
We visited 6 different locations making a full loop around the CRHS property

Each location had a start point, a destination point, an exercise, and a rep count

Pax did the exercise at the start point, ran to the destination point repeated the exercise in the designated reps, ran back to the start point and did the exercise for the reps again. We then ran to the next location start point ( going past the destination to point it out to the pax

Location 1 – the road behind the visitor side of the stadium.
Start at the storage building at the bottom of the hill to destination at the top of the hill. Exercise was 5 burpees

Location 2 – the bus loop. Start at the far end of the bus loop to destination at the other end of the bus loop. Exercise was 10 bomb jacks

Location 3 – the faculty parking lot ( near baseball/softball fields). Start at the end closest to fort mill pkwy to destination at the the other end. Exercise was 15 merkins

Location 4 – the car loop in front of the school. Start at the far end near the band field to destination at the way other end. Exercise was 20 shoulder taps – count only right side

Location 5 – the student parking lot. Start at the top – farthest away from the school to destination right in front of the gym. Exercise was 25 squats

Location 6 – the entrance road to the student lot. Start at the bottom next to the stadium to destination at the first student lot entrance. Exercise was 30 LBCs

Ran back to COT – 3.0 miles

Egypt > Desert > Promised Land Bootcamp

Leave a comment

WARMUP: We started with a mile around campus, fleeing Egypt with a few dynamic stretches along the way. Made sure to circle back for the six. @U5MQ8FHV0 stepped up with some Side Straddle Hops while YHC went back for @U02DKM63B7B.
THE THANG: We finally arrived in the Desert, a few parking lot islands away from the Promised Land.
25 Merkins, 25 Squats, 25 Big Boy Sit-Ups, followed by a controlled run to the next aisle. Repeat.
YHC also learned what a zipper is (and apparently isn’t).
Our first complaint came from @U02DKM63B7B, which seemed fitting considering the Israelites’ experience in the wilderness. He also appointed @U0BEBRDB5U7 as his proxy for any reps he wouldn’t be completing.
Once we reached 100 reps of each, we swapped Merkins for Dips, courtesy of @U08NJ8FF1PF.
We finished with a sprint around the parking lot perimeter, making our final push into the Promised Land.
MARY: A little Mary roulette followed, with @U011KKZ17U6 calling Jennifer Lopez, only for @U02DKM63B7B to discover someone was apparently doing the Ben Affleck instead. Hilarious.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Consider donating to F3 to support something that’s changed so many of our lives. Be proactive in providing food for Bethel Men’s Shelter. Convergence next month at the Ranch (apparently there’s good parking). The Excavation at Forest Hill Fort Mill is November 13. A few parties coming up, details of which YHC has not retained.
COT: Prayers for safe travels, a successful surgery for @UJKGM3VKJ and a speedy recovery. Prayers for @U0AQZ0DGP97 as he prepares to start his new job next month. Prayers for the Pope and for those requests left unspoken.

Kumquat

Leave a comment

WARMUP: BC led that….it involved burpees in cadence, but only after some creative running

THE THANG: Split into 3 groups, was gonna be 4, but Tesh was late. Rotated at Esso's whistle. Band Camp's job was to travel the groups in reverse and …… "encourage" full completion of the exercises

Esso had arms
Shady had core
Slash had legs

It was pretty solid. We know this because Esso could barely move his arms after doing it 3 times, Shady has a massive F3 tramp stamp from the situps, and Slash actually worked out the full duration according to all accounts

MARY: Again Band Camp called more burpees.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Newsletter
14th year convergence at WEP on 9/29

COT: We discussed why shield lock is important. AND that it may not work the first….or second….or third time you try to form one. A man leads from his shield lock, without it I'm not going to be the leader I'm capable of being.

It's kinda like having access to outside consultants who know what's up and are tasked with being honest to you even when you don't want it.

Always identify the open bathroom

Leave a comment

Immediately identified the open bathroom and ran towards it. Stopped for some stair steper rep counts otw. While I duced the pax did 100 200 300 of merkins, squat, lcbs. I entered mid squat. Then back to the top to play with sacks. Partner 1 toss for count, partner 2 for exercise.

I'm the words of a wise philosopher…
