That 3.0 miles was really 3.76 miles

Leave a comment

THE THANG: Run down and up Harris Street to WEP and back – 3.3 Mi
Above plus Banks St and back – 5.0 miles

COT: Share heavy stuff in COT. Others have been there before to guide you through. Be aware of others’ peaks during your valleys. Because soon enough, you will be back at a peak to another PAX though his valley.

WARMUP: ssh, imp walkers, hillbilly walkers – all in cadence. Then we moseyed to nice grassy area to plank while instructions for the workout were given
THE THANG: 2 stations, one on each end of the building and one home base. Each station has a list of 6 assignments consisting of various exercises and rep counts. Pax alternate running to one station, then the other, doing one assignment at each stop. In between each is a stop at the home base for 5 makhtar n’daiyes – I think we ended up with 65 of those. We had a few mins left at the end, so did a wall sit until 6 and continued our conversation on various nighttime entertainment alternatives in Charlotte

1% better at Slow Burn

Leave a comment

YHC was honored to be given the Q stick at Slow Burn and challenged the Pax to get 1% better this AM. You see, status quo is comfortable and safe because it is known. Showing up to an AO offers disruption because you do not know what you will encounter from the Q. As a Fort Redwood I dont have tons of new ideas but I do challenge those in attendance to get better as I am confident that this momentum will carry you through the day as it has for me over the years.

WARMUP:
Mosey to Persis parking lot and circle up
Windmills x 10
SSH x 20
Mtn x 20
MNC x 10
IW x 10
Lets go!
THE THANG:
Mosey to Lowes with (3) stations. At each station, we completed max number of reps for each exercise within a minute. Pax were instructed to use sidewalk chalk to note their number

Station 1
Burpees
Flutters
WAM

Station 2
Lunges
Hammers
Diamond merkins

Station 3
CDD
Big Boy

Rinse and repeat but with a caveat to do 1 more rep of each exercise with a partner
