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.
