Pyramid on a string

Leave a comment

3 started out “bad idea” Saturday with a pre-run at 530. Rolloff shot for the stars (collusseum) and landed on the moon (IR). Fishstix decided a pre- ruck would be in his best interest (expected the Q to bring a moderate).

Rain started picking up right at 630

WARMUP: disclaimer and yog up near pullup bars. Settle in under the cedar tree like a bunch of wild animals trying to stay out of the rain. IC exercises including 16 reps of SSH, WM, IW, MNC, Shoulder taps, Mtn Climbers

THE THANG: Run to windjammer park and back with stops every 1/4 mile for squats and merkins – pyramid style. Al Gore until 6 gets in then begin exercises reps- 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 30, 25, 20, 15, 10, 5

Added 10 burpees at windjammer park for good measure

MARY: more burpees, MNC, IWs etc

ANNOUNCEMENTS: newsletter

COT: yup

Lots of 6-7 references this morning – fishstix is wondering what the kids are gonna do when they learn about 6-9. It was that kind of morning…
