BurpeeStruck
It was dark, it was humid, it was early. We gathered anyway in the gloom to get after it on hump day. Mosey to the track.
Warm-up: 15 IW’s. Enough of that. #StretchingIsOverrated
The Thang:
A little something YHC picked up at F3 Charleston. AC/DC’s Thunderstruck. Do SSH’s for song and perform a burpee when he says “thunder.” That’s 33 if you caught them all. #CrowdPleaser.
4 Corners around the track, while avoiding other runners. Perform called exercises at each corner, concentrating on good form and not speed.
Lap 1: 20 LBCs and 10 jump squats
Lap 2: 20 monkey humpers and 10 low, slow squats
Lap 3: Burpees. Station 1= hand release x 10. Station 2 = double clutch (2 merkins) x 10. Station 3 = Scorpion x 10 (one leg up, 5 each leg), Station 4 = 8 count body builders in cadence.
Mosey to bottom of intimidator. Do some seal claps instead of a 10 count.
Triple Nickel: Run up to first stop sign. 5 Molotov merkins (coming off ground with hands and feet on the upstroke). Run down and perform 5 burpees. Repeat for a total of 5 rounds.
Face downhill and perform 2 burpees OYO. #MuchHarderDownhill. For those playing along at home…100 burpees, even though Lambchop questioned my math. #MarketingGuysCannotAdd
Announcements: Shmedfest is Aug 24. Sign up for head count purposes.
NMM: Not a lot of mumblechatter this morning. 33 burpees off the bat will do that to you. Everyone got after it. the PAX were running behind a FIA candidate for one of our laps. Being trailed by 15 sweaty PAX must be a little spooky. She was faster than us though, so we veered off.
Prayers for all the mass shootings. Let’s all show a little kindness to everyone. We have a whole lot more in common than different–can we at least acknowledge that and show a little love and respect?
Done.
