A Bandana and a Balmy December Morning

After the rain, 22 Pax came out including 2 FNGs brought by Tinker Toy and Birdhole (our #1 recruiter):  welcome Skeletor and Marriott. We went up the Intimidator, around the Track, and through some Pain as we wheel-barrowed and partner-carried up 6-flights of stairs (2x):

 

Warm-O-Rama

  • Mosey to the circular area at the base of the Intimidator, all in cadence:
  • 20x SSH
  • 15x Imperial Stormtrooper Walkers with pew-pew sounds
  • 20x arm swirly things
  • 20x jack reachers
  • 10x Merkins
  • 10x Whirly with a Clap

The Vig and of all people Burlap were ragging (pun intended) on YHC’s wardrobe inducing YHC to give a defense of himself on the basis of having a low nose bridge thereby causing glasses to sit directly under brow causing sweat to run, etc. and so on and so forth.

 

The Intimidator

  • Run up, completing:
    • 25x WWII situps oyo at first stop
    • 25x merkins situps at second
    • 25x WWII situps at the top
  • Mosey to the bottom and plank while waiting for the six

 

The Track

  • Mosey to the Track
  • Sprint the straights (90%), jog the curves (2x)

400ms of sprints were brutal

 

The Stairs

  • Mosey to the 6 flights of stairs near Wylie Middle School
  • Partner-up Size does matter à for those unfamiliar, that means some of the same size and stature
  • Wheelbarrow up the stairs 2x; switching every 2 flights or as needed
  • Partner carry up the stairs 2x, switching when needed

 

An enjoyable morning. The Vig – who named Skeletor out of a name bank he has been compiling comprised of names he believes would make good F3 names (Skeletor is pretty good) – has the Q at Dawg Pound on Saturday and will feature a solid hour of Heels-to-Heaven, hit him up if you have any concerns about that; F3 Christmas party next weekend, check on Twitter for updates; Glaser (thanks for the keys) will be sending out the Q schedule for Conspiracy for the first half of 2018 shortly.

    Sorry for the belated Conspiracy post.  8 hearty Pax showed up for a beautiful morning at Hanes Park.  Not a bad crowd considering it’s the middle of Spring Break for many of us. Warm-a-Rama YHC always like to to start off with a warm up lap around the track and this morning was no exception….

  1. To come to the defense of The Vig (there is. I excuse for me), he was simply noting aloud the vast difference in wardrobe among the pax as the temps get lower. Some were track-suited and sweatshirted up (@Thistle) while others had leggings and warm tobaggans. YHC was simply commenting that @SwissMiss was wearing the same garb in December as he did in June with short sleeve shirt, shorts, and short socks. Then others picked up on the fact that @SwissMiss’ headband matched his socks. No criticism— just observation.
