Adding Gardenia

WARMUP:
Not typically done at this AO. Try to get here early enough to manage yourself.
THE THANG:
Run towards Gardenia every stop sign we did and additional merkin starting with 1. There are 10 stop signs.

7s on the hill – burpees and bomb jacks. We only got two rounds in. That hill is hard

Run back with merkins the same way. Total merkins 110.

COT: was held.

If during your childhood the holidays were nothing but joy and wonder—never realizing how many people spend this season hurting over loss, stress, or heartache—then what an amazing gift your parents gave you. Think about that now that we’re the men creating a holiday environment in the depths of winter for our families.

Veterans Day at Vets Park

Run to Parking Lot behind Amor

11 SSH
11 Windmills
11 IW
11 HW
11 Mnt Climbers

Quick discussion on my Why? As in why I’m still in F3
Short answer is to run faster…(metaphorically as well as literally) I want to be good, I want to be great so I surround myself with people who are better than I. I’m consistently inspired, and impressed with the dudes we have here. All I can do is try and keep up.

Run to the Ft. Mill Baptist 11 Lunges run to confederate street 11 HR merkins run to to the bottom of the hill 11 Bomb Jacks.
Rinse in repeat up and down reducing the reps by one each time. (here my math was off a bit but we got pretty far with this until I called an audible)

Run back to Vets park Where we did a heavily modified version of the Sgt. Major workout. (for veterans day)

28 merkins run to the top of massey
28 merkins 56 calf raises
Run back to the bottom 28 merkins 56 calf raises 112 flutters
Run back to the top of massey 28 merkins 56 calf raises and 112 LBC’s
Run back to the bottom of the hill

11 Hello Dollys IC
11 Heel Touches IC
11 Hammers IC

6:00.
