A Tribute to

Leave a comment

WARMUP: A quick run up the hill to pay tribute…to the hill.  Then we paid tribute to Cha-Ching with an inspired OYO 11 burpees followed by 33 SSH.  Ran down the hill and to the big parking lot for another inspired 11 and 33.  Then ran to the band parking lot for another 11 and 33.  The meaning behind 11 and 33, don’t remember but Cha-Ching may!
THE THANG: Ran over to the front of the school by the benches and broke out the “alternative” music in tribute to Slash who’s recovering from knee surgery.  (Alternative music wasn’t very alternative so fail on YHC part).  We did the exercises below and then ran a lap around the parking lot after each set.
– 10 burpees, ~30 seconds Al Gore
– 15 diamonds, 30 monkey humpers
– 20 hand release, 50 calf raises
– 25 wide arm, 50 flutters
– 30 reg merkins, 40 step ups
– 35 rangers, 25 incline merkins
– 40 CDD, 30 hammers

Ran back to COT.
MARY: got through 3 min worth
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Xmas party, shanking with Stang

Leave a comment

WARMUP:
15 Imperial Walker
15 Cherry Pickers
15 Tesh Style (Slow) Moroccan Night Clubs

THE THANG:
8 Cones set up under the breaze way with the intent to keep the pax as dry as possible. I posted 3 different exercises for 4 rounds. We made it 1 & 1/2

Start with 5 reps and increase by 5 reps every cone for a total of 180 reps per exercise per round.

First Round
Squats
Big boy sit ups
Merkins
Bear Crawl from cone to cone.
lunge walk back to the beginning.
Once complete take a lap.

Second Round
Bobby Hurley’s
LBC
Carolina dry docks
Lt. Dan’s from cone to cone

As Fishstix, Stang and myself where the main ones out in the rain, I called an audible after the first round and got everyone out in the rain on their belly and did pull the ripcord. Then we flipped over and did some body destroyer and reflected on how refreshing it was to be in the rain and soaking wet. when the proceeded to run a lap and proceed with round two.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Christmas party, Shanking with Stang Golf Tournament.

COT: Praises for reliving past experiences with family and friends, praises for allowing Godley men in our daughters lives.

Prayers for not analyzing everything and to rely on our faith more and trust God.

Leave a comment

WARMUP: nope, just counted off. Then I promptly forgot how many we had. Luckily Anchorman remembered we had Repeat and that he peeled off early. Q-fail. Will learn from that.
THE THANG: ran – https://strava.app.link/KeQquGKGmvb
MARY: nope, just a pigeon lunge
ANNOUNCEMENTS: read the newsletter
COT: had to be there, it was more meaningful

First time to Q at Clydesdales or any running AO. Not my forte, but we made it work. Not too many actually made the route I drew up work, but everyone was generous about not letting me know.
