THE THANG:
Ladder of Deconstructed Burpees
A loop of .25 mile was set up, the same one we used as a warmup.
Do the exercises, then run the loop. The idea was in each round, you do an exercise that is part of the standard burpee.
Ascending ladder (run a lap between each round)
Round 1: 1 burpee + 10 hand-touch squats
Round 2: 2 burpees + 10 hand-touch squats + 10 (2ct) mountain climbers (10 each leg)
Round 3: 3 burpees + 10 hand-touch squats + 10 2 ct MCs
Round 4: 4 burpees + 10 hand-touch squats + 10 MCs + 10 merkins + 10 jump squats w OH clap
Descending the ladder (run a lap between each round)
>> Take off 1 burpee and 1 exercise
Round 5: 3 burpees + 10 hand-touch squats + 10 plank w leg crunch/extensions + 10 merkins
Round 6: 2 burpees + 10 hand-touch squats + 10 plank w leg crunch/extensions
Round 7: 1 burpee + 10 hand-touch squats
>> Rinse and repeat

  • One evolution is 16 burpees, 70 LSS, 50 MCs (2ct), 30 merkins, 10 jump squats

Everyone got at least 2 full completions of this evolution (ascend then descend is one evolution), and started another full ascension. Overall, everyone got at least 3 miles. Good push by everyone.

Homestead Route

WARMUP: Not at this AO. But YHC did jump a lot from 5:10-5:14 (Q-drenaline)

THE THANG: Run to WillowBrook and back via Orchard Park Elementary. Proof: https://www.strava.com/activities/17574144266

MARY: Might have passed her on the route, not sure.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Sign up for Bethel Men’s Shelter THIS THURSDAY! The need is great, the workers are few.

NMM: I articulated the route as starting out towards the QT, but then immediately ran the wrong direction. Nobody said anything. 😥 (Retread and I corrected the route, but come on men!)

When the leader doesn’t do what they said they’d do, other leaders should speak up. Our community needs your voice. Hold each other accountable.
