Very Rucky

The usual running was almost hijacked by ruckers this week. Tclaps to the speedy Sir Toppam Peach stand, bass, Fogerty, corruption, for keeping us a running AO.

We ran, we rucked, we fellowshipped, we prayed for a reflective Holy Week.

Sweet and Spicy at The Fort

WARMUP:
Peach Stand started us off with the warmup of SSH, Imperial Walkers, and possibly a few others gone from memory.

THE THANG 1:
PeachStand instructed Pax to pick a rock from the piles behind the amphitheater (and to choose wisely).
The “thang” was a ladder to “9”, starting with 8 Mike Tysons right behind the amphitheater, and 1 bomb jack at the entrance of the parking lot (up the hill). The mode of transportation running (or walking briskly) with our coupon held straight over our heads. Harry Carry did more running than anyone (perhaps even more than the rest of us combined).

THE THANG 2:
YHC took over and educated the Pax on the rules of a Webb-o-rama. 4 cones set up along path in front of the amphitheater. On each cone were 2 exercises to be done in Jack Webb style (1:4 ratio)
Cone 1- 1 6-count Burpee : 4 SSH
– >> Bear crawl to next station
Cone 2 – 1 Big boy sit up : 4 American Hammers
– partner wheelbarrow to next station
Cone 3 – 1 Knee tar N’Diaye : 4 Squats
– partner wheelbarrow to next station
Cone 4 – Traditional Jack Webb –
– >> Run Around parking lot, up the hill to the entrance, then back to first station
Instead of doing all 10 reps at once, we broke it up into 3 rounds.
Round 1: 1-5
Round 2: 6-8
Round 3: 10 (skipped 9 since we ran out of time).

Great work done by all men. Thanks for the chance to lead, JWOW.
