Stole from Dojo

Leave a comment

It was raining, so we ran straight for the Lowe’s Contractor covering.

WARMUP:
Standard fare of SSH, IW, Hillbilly Walkers, Butt Kickers, High Knees, etc, then loop around Lowe’s

THE THANG:
This was stolen from Dojo just the day before (done at DawnPatrol). Kind of a modified ring of fire.

Set up 6 cones near edges of the covering with a single cone in the center. On each perimeter cone was an exercise and count. Pax had to run to a cone, do the exercise and count, then bear crawl back to the center cone and do Burpees. The number of Burpees was based on how many stations they had been to (starting with 1, working up to 6 when all cones were visited).

Once all done with all cones, we ran another lap around Lowe’s

Rinse and repeat, but with 2nd set of cones (under he first set).

Just a few minutes left for Rugby Sprints, then return to COT.

Thanks to PeachStand for the chance to lead.

Park to Calhoun

Leave a comment

WARMUP: it was cold. we’ll warm up on the run
THE THANG: cover distance stop for:
5 burpees
10 merkins
15 squats
added some lunges once
did some leg lifts after a muscle up twice
bear crawled the length of Calhoun St. Parking lot twice too
covered 3.11 miles–except for Beaker (his strava only said 2.98, which feels like a failure on my part. see NMM below)
MARY: flutters in cadence for 1:30 to hit 0600
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Xmas Party 12/12, Bethel service tonight

NMM:

You ever just 3000% took care of everything and crushed it by all outward metrics, but you didn’t do it with JOY in your heart? So your wife, kids, or close friend noticed and it wasn’t the reaction you expected…even though the mission was fully accomplished

It isn’t enough to just do a good job

Handle the mess your kids created with success, but did it in a way that made them feel scared rather than safe? Failure

Take care of business for your family, but made your wife feel like it was a burden rather than a mission? Failure

Maybe it’s just me… 😉 Good thing failure is a way point and not an end point. Let’s stay after it!
