All I heard was run and push-ups

WARMUP: go
THE THANG: start from COT and run to school, up the hill with light posts, turn around at stop sign, and run back to COT.

Start out at 10k pace for first 1/4 mile, 1k pace for next 1/4 mile, then 25 merkins (so 25 merkins every .5 miles.

Rinse and repeat.

Looking at 3-5 miles for 150-300 merkins.

You’re welcome.

MARY: quick 30 seconds at the end.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: newsletter worthy
COT: Luka, family health, Grassy’s wife for some quick recovery!

Dark and Light

WARMUP: buy in: running the short parking lot with a burpee at every light (16ish)

THE THANG: carry coupons down through the dark path to Harris Street Park. Squats along the way for the 6. It was dark, but not as dark in our souls as the return trip….

Found the parking lot, but nobody saw the pre-set lights on the basketball court. 30 tricep extensions, 30 curls, finally some mumblechatter of “we could have just done this in the original parking lot”

Moved over to the basketball court. 2 Bells (one heavy, one light) set at half court. Bear crawl to half-court and switch bells (either with the one already there or another PAX), then keep bear crawling. Return trip was lunge walks with the same principle. Did squats at one end, merkins at the other, and swings the third time.

The trip to COT was illuminated up Harris street; trading bells as needed and carrying all the gear.

MARY: she weighed 200lbs and came out of Clickbait’s truck with her twin sister. We had to get them back in.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Cannoli Run – 5/20.
Bethel Men’s Shelter service tomorrow (5/4)

COT: Continued prayers for Luka

Clemson in the parking lot?

WARMUP: Bandcamp took the warmup as YHC wrote in chalk in parking spaces. Shieldlocks do this for each other.
THE THANG: 5 min buy in. Carry a weight (ruck, kb, ruck plate) from the parking lot and up the hill over your head. Get to the top, 10 burpees, back down the hill with your toy over your head.

One we returned to parking lot, parking spaces were marked with 2 exercises and had weight in each space at varying sizes. Instructions were, do one exercise in the space and run to the top of the hill where you’d do another exercise written down starting at the top. Finish that 1 exercise and go back to the bottom spaces and grab a new space and perform exercise, then back up the hill for the 2nd exercise on the paper…and down and up, down and up.

Exercises in the spaces:
– 45 lbs (or 50+): 1. 30 shrugs 2. 100 calf raises
– 40 lb sandbag: 1. 20 man makers 2. 25 shoulder presses
– 35 lb: 1. 40 swings 2. 30 curls
– 30 lb: 1. 40 squats 2. 30 lunges
– 25 lb: 1. 25 tri extension 2. 30 rows
– 30 lb ruck: 1. 25 merkins 2. 30 chest press

Top of hill:
1. 10 burpees
2. 15 diamonds
3. 20 hand release
4. 25 wide arm
5. 30 merkins
6. 35 Rangers
7. 40 CDD
8. 45 plank jacks (this is as far as we got)

Some of us, BC, wore a weight vest because that’s what we do.
