Sack of poo

Ruck 3 1/4 miles at sub 18 minute pace (3 laps around Kingsley)
Stop for 50 step ups and 10 merkins each lap in front of Carolina Ale House.

Of particular note: there are a lot of poo bags in front of LPL. It seems that some of the locals go through the trouble of bagging their dog poo, but just leave the bags around. Perhaps a community cleanup/beer run is in order?

Some Shield lock bros were walking around holding hands. It was adorable.

Cold + mumblechatter (whiners) = SlowBurn

The cold and the complaining was out in full force this morning. Great effort by … most

The first thing I did when I got home was was my sweatshirt, with my Weinke, so you get the cliff notes …

Warm-up:
The pattern was 1. exercise on your feet 2. exercise on your 6 3. exercise on your feet 4. exercise in the plank position 5. rinse/repeat

We did stuff like: imperial walker, hillbilly walker, Travolta, shoulder tap, SSH, LBC, Mahktar N’Diaye, squats, sumo squats, Morrocan NC, OH Claps. Stuff like that. Mostly in dozens.

Then onto the those exercises that were rejected by the nation’s Exicon
Patrick Swayze: Karaoke L, Karaoke R, Power Skip, NUR with arms out
Jonah Hill: 3 broad jumps, 3 merkins, 7x
Matt Foley: 1 animated squat, 4 dying cockroach, 2-8, 3-12, 4-16, 5-20

Then a round of Assassin suicides, squats, imp walkers, OH claps, or something like that, super easy

Over to 4 corners where some actual did the work and some walked from corner to corner chit chatting
15 BB Sits, 15 Jump squats, 15 bombjacks, 15 merkins, 5 flying squirrels in the middle

To the wall for a sit and 2 burpees from each end, rinse/repeat

Back for 2 rounds of Assassin merkins
LBCs, HELLO DOLLY!, BB Sits
Donkey kicks, shoulder taps, mountain climbers

SlowBurn was my first AO I attended, SlowBurn was my first site Q, and has always been a great Friday workout. Thanks Weezer for the lead.

Looks like we made it,

Barry Manilow

Rucktober sandbag exchange at the JOC

WARMUP: mosey around the parking lot loop
THE THANG: we took a few minutes to learn how to transition a sandbag between men since it was frustrating to see so many guys struggle during GTE32.

We then took some cones and threw them out and bearcrawled to pick one cone each and bring it back to a parking spot. There we each did what was on our cone while using the bearcrawls exercise station as the timer. Then we rotated to the next spot and performed that exercise. It was a great time. We did all kinds of ruck swings, ruck rows, big boy burpees, around the dome, squat thrusters, bear crawling finished with a 3 minute sandbag shuffle.
