PAX POSTED: Hitchhiker, Hooker, Belding, Airstream, IKEA, Madoff, Big Papi, Pinksalt, dba, Haka, Chowdah

Waking up with enough time to get out the door and pull up to the beatdown with around 10 minutes to spare until we kicked things off. 10 other PAX successfully defeated the fartsack (great to see Big Papi back ITG) and as we circled upYHC looked around wondering who’d be leading this joyous event. As 530 rolled around Hitchhiker and Hooker looked over and informed yours truly that it was time to kick things off. With a laugh and some quick review of the core principles we set out EH Starkey. (Monkey jumpers all around)

The warm up:

  • 15 SSH
  • 10 Windmills
  • 10 Willie maze haze
  • Mosey to the round about

The thang:

  • Find a seam at the around about inner circle
    • 5 Merkins and 5 squats at reach seam, bear craw to the next seam clockwise
    • Once complete hold plank or SSH for the six
  • Mosey to next round about split into two teams
  • 3 exercises 4 reps each then run around the round about and run back to 1st round about. Do same exercises then run back. First team to finish gets a prize.
    • Burpees, lunges (EW), dips
  • Team 1 won but technically cheated so we were nullified on the victory
  • Next mosey towards the pathway behind the houses leading to the baseball fields at each light post do 5 start jumps.
  • Once we got to the path we did an Indian NUR (backwards run)
  • Moseyed through the packing lot. Split into three groups for some sprints, side shuffle and nur between different posts back to the start.
  • With about 15 minutes left we entered into some Chowdah yoga

COT:

  • Prayers for Madoff’s daughter’s friend
  • Prayers for dba’s cousin
  • Prayers for those injured, ill, or DR
  • Prayers for the safety of PAX completing the 26.3 miler
