Go The Extra Mile

Leave a comment

The runners took a familiar route to Harvest Pt and back. Ruckers traveled aimlessly around Baxter with good fellowship and conversation. The message this morning was do a little extra distant in support of Wegman's who is running the Boston Marathon. He has put in lots of early morning training runs leading up to this event. Lots of great HIMs have supported him along the way.
Special prayer this morning as he completes this goal.

Masters Party at Dawn Patrol

Leave a comment

A tradition unlike any other…The Masters. This time of year is one of my favorites. The weather starts to turn warmer. The trees and flowers start to bloom. People start coming outside of their homes. And the NCAA tournament concludes right into my favorite sporting event of the year, the Masters. With this in mind, I thought I would prepare a Weinke inspired by the tournament. I borrowed some of this from Warning Track and others via reviewing their backblasts.

Weather – chilly 39 degrees at launch

Disclaimer given during lots of mumblechatter

COP
SSH x 30 – this is the standard
IW x 10
Cherry Picker x 10
CDD x 10
Mtn climber x 10

Mosey to the “tee box”

In honor of the Masters, we played the front 9 holes revealing the name of each hole, the yardage and par. Pax chose the club necessary for the shots based on the following criteria:

  • Woods including Driver – 10 merkins
  • Long Irons – 10 jump squats
  • Short Irons – 10 Big Boys

When arriving on the green, Pax were given the following options:

  • 2 Putt – # of burpees for par
  • Birdie – no burpees but must answer a trivia question correctly
  • Bogey – penalty if a trivia question was missed which equated to twice the amount of burpees

#1 Tea Olive – 495 yards Par 4
#2 Pink Dogwood – 575 yards Par 5
#3 Flowering Peach – 350 yards Par 4
#4 Flowering Crab Apple – 240 yards Par 3
#5 Magnolia – 495 Yards Par 4
#6 Juniper – 180 Yards Par 3
#7 Pampas – 450 Yards Par 4
#8 Yellow Jasmine – 570 Yards Par 5
#9 Carolina Cherry – 460 Yards Par 4

Had to cut it short after 8 holes but the Pax were even par with 3 birdies, 3 bogeys and 3 pars.

THE THANG:
Farmer carry to parking lot
Planks with sandbag drag 2x

Stations and Exercises (Baseball-Themed):
• Home Plate – “Batter Up Swings”: Single-arm kettlebell swings – 12 reps per arm (alternate arms each inning). Focus on explosive hip drive, as if powering a base hit.

MOT farmer carry

• 1st Base – “Steal the Base Lunges”: Kettlebell reverse lunges – 10 reps per leg (hold kettlebell goblet-style at chest). Step back into lunge, drive forward—mimicking aggressive base advancement.

MOT duck walk

• 2nd Base – “Double-Play Thrusters”: Kettlebell goblet squat to overhead press – 12 reps. Squat deeply, then explode upward while pressing the kettlebell overhead (like turning a double play).

MOT bear crawl with bell toss

• 3rd Base – “Tag-Out Rows”: Single-arm kettlebell bent-over rows – 12 reps per arm. Hinge at hips, row the kettlebell to your side (as if fielding and throwing out a runner).

MOT Lunge walk

In between each rounding of the bases we did a mosey, flutters and other exercises to pause

Took 4 trips around the bases with the final straight farmer carry
