Back and Forth

Leave a comment

6 men at Minnow Pond this morning. We started with a half mile warm-up. Hill repeats up and down Monroe White Street, exercises ( squats, merkins, LBCs – 10 of each) at each right turn.
Return to COT the long way via 160 with two stops performing the same exercises.
Made the 3 miles minimum. Great job everyone.

Seabuiscuit Take off!!

Leave a comment

Here is the newest exploratory Running AO in The Fort. It is located at the Blue Smoke House parking lot outside of Massey community.
I gave 2 option to the 7 PAX the showed up for this first event. They decided to go over to Holbrook Rd where is no sidewalks but good shoulders and very low traffic. Easy route, 2.25mi each way on the same rd, down hill one way, of course, a little uphill on the way back. All PAX completed the route and got back on time, some did extra bonus picking up the 6.
See you next week for a new exploratory route, all paces are welcome!!

Bushy-Co-Q

Leave a comment

Six pax for the Bushwood bootcamp on this REMARKABLY PLEASANT morning on December 29th.

The Q was shared by Ruby and HarryCarry, both of which are recovering from injuries so we Q’d what we could actually do.

Started with Ruby: focus on legs/running and core.
Pax started at the top of the hill on the back side of the school. Set-up a starting line at the top of the hill with 5 stations approx. 20 yards apart traveling down the hill. At the starting line PAX had to complete 25 squats and then would travel down the hill to the next station. There was a core exercise and a mode of transportation back up the hill to the starting line written at each station. Here’s the flow: Starting Line = 25 squats, Station #1 = 30 LBCs & Broad Jump back to the starting line to complete 25 squats, Station #2 = 30 Flutters(counting 1 leg only) & Apollo Ono back to the starting line to complete 25 squats, Station #3 = 30 Freddy Mercury’s(count 1 side only) & Lunge Walk back to the starting line to complete 25 squats, Station #4 = 30 Gas Pumpers & NUR back to the starting line to complete 25 squats, Station #5 = 30 American Hammers(count 1 side only) & RUN back to the starting line to complete 25 squats.

BREAK BREAK BREAK: Let the record show NUR was actually found to be written as “NER” on the pavement. 🙂

Hand off to HarryCarry: focus on arms. 

Thang 2.1 = Bench work
pax at benches and do: Step ups (10x per leg); Derkins; Butt-touch squats; Incline Merkins; Dips; calf raises (all 10X IC).

Thang 2.2: Prison Yard Burpees
Four cones about 15′ apart, in a square.  Start at cone 1 and do SIX burpees, then bear crawl to cone 2 and do FIVE burpees; bc to next cone do FOUR burpees, et cetera to ONE burpee.  It’s only 21 burpees in total.

Thang 2.3: Pass the Ammunition
Pax plank on a curb, approximately arm’s length apart.  Pax do three curb merkins and then:
pass a cinder block down the line while still in curb-plank, pass it back to the beginning pax and repeat curb merkins. repeat until burned/pax drop out.

Thang 2.4: Pull up bars
NOTE: poor excuse for pull bars at CRHS, but we made due.
Pax on bar, do 10 pull ups, we cycled the pax through (some did plank or dips while waiting for the bar to open up.  Then we did 10 toes to bar.  Same cycle through.

Fini.  Run back to COT, with the  cinder block getting handed off among the Pax.

COT: Prayers/Praises.  All Pax, led by Ruby, named something they praised for in 2021.
