Repeat the full 5 steps each subsequent stop

PAX were advised to just jump in where the most guys were when they got to the exercises, or to skip the exercises entirely and just keep running.

When we stretch to a route that necessitates covering 4 miles, YHC gets worried about leaving PAX. We managed to stay together and Fishstix + Badlands picked up the 6 today making sure we all arrived back at COT resting on 4 miles. Bravo gentlemen!

NMM:
Sometimes we have to choose the hard thing ourselves. Sometimes we have to choose to do the hard thing that life is handing us. If we skirt away from doing the what’s difficult when needed, what worse thing will be waiting for us in the future?

Training for the Prison Break

Leave a comment

We had four strong for a solid day on the prison yard and a chance to run.

Mosey around the park with stops for warmups:  IW x 20, CDD x10, SSH x 34, Moroccan Nightclubs x20, Arm Circle x15, Reverse Arm Circle x15.

Mosey to play ground for a circuit x4:

5 burpees, 10 pull ups, 15 Merkins, 20 Lunges, 25 dips and 30 squats then a lap around the park.

Ab lab with 20 LBCs, 20 Hello Dollies and 20 flutters.

Once all completed we moseyed to the hill.  Nur up the then hill 5 times with one less burpee per time up the hill (5-4-3-2-1).

Mosey back to parking lot.

Finish with Freddy Mercury x20.

Great crew as always:  Uber continues to show tours of his van.  If you haven’t seen it get out to Alcatraz and check out his masterpiece.

Speaking of Masterpiece it was great to have him out.  I discovered you just have to have him over for some bourbon the night before and he will post.

Senator Tressel continues to accelerate in his bid for the Senior Olympics.  I believe his going for the all around metal.  He continues to drive us into the ground.

I was there and did all of it.

Wheel of Gloom!!!

Leave a comment

It was a little rainy but a lot windy for the Stockade debut of the Wheel of Gloom.

For those unfamiliar the wheel of gloom is each Pax taking turns spinning the Wheel. Each spot on the wheel denotes a workout with reps. Each rep is one point for the spinner… but all Pax do the exercises.

Exercises included burpees, Merkins, jump squats, LBCs, Freddy Mercury’s, Big Boys, among others.

The lighting round was a wheel of fortune type routine with correct letters earning points and wrong guesses resulting in LBCS.

Masterpiece solved the puzzle and racked up some big points.

Final round was a 1:00 minute Diamond Merkin Off between Masterpiece and Grassy Knoll.

Grassy won the final round and was given the chance to take a 4-pack of delicious White Claw OR choose what was in the box. Thankfully he chose the box and got a nice variety pack courtesy of Slapshots beer fridge. Masterpiece ended up with the Whiteclaw.

The point today was a decent workout with great fellowship. Thankful for those who showed. It was a fun time!

Until next time!
