Date: 4/16/19
PAX: Zima, Cherry Pie, Cheesesteak, Palin
YHC arrived early, having not slept well with a cold and in need of a stretch and warm-up before that workout that expressly forbids warm-ups, or atleast that’s what Zima always says. Slowly a few more arrive and we stretch and chit chat, I realize that I have left my little pink watch at home and enlist a timekeeper, we talk some more about the business 40 construction and wait on the mass of PAX to arrive at 529, I ask for a time check only to be told that the start time has past! Oh man, how could the DashPAX’s most intense workout start with standing around! Gosh, I hope the siteQ doesn’t find out about this, I may never be invited back. YHC takes off at a scamper, the confused PAX attempt to follow me so I circle back to pick up my gloves. Unshaken, the PAX circle back, and then we head out of the parking lot together, down the street to the Cherry bridge over the Business 40 mud bog. While on the bridge we do some erkins and derkins before resuming our mosey back to 1st street, turning right towards liberty and running down the hill. YHC explained that we would be doing a 3 man grinder with 4 people. Dynamic exercise at the bottom, sprint to the top for a static exercise. Cheesesteak takes off, Zima gives chase, $hit that means I’ve gotta keep up with CP. 200 merkins/plank, 300 squat/al gore, 400 lbc/6 inches. CP was a great partner always pushing me on the sprint and keeping excellent count. Next, we mosey to the parking deck where YHC explains that we would do an hanging exercise then run up a half floor where the first person to arrive gets to call and exercise that all will do until the 6 has done 10 of them. 10 pullups, run, 10 hanging leg lifts, run, 6 pullups, run, 6 hanging leg lifts, 3-5 pullups, run 3-5 hanging leg lifts. Cheesesteak was sneaky with the up dog/down dog call. CP was ready to take off up the uncovered incline, not sure where he was going to do his pullups from, but YHC called him back and we mosey’d down to the entrance the long way. Once there, I see a wall so we do some mike Tysons, derkins, Australian mtn climbers, Australian merkins and some hip slappers. Zima said a mean thing to me. YHC was going to use an idea from Drip for a variation on head, shoulders, knees and toes, but he didn’t show so I decided to wait on it. Timekeeper says we are running low so we head back to the parking lot for mary by committee and end just a few seconds over in an attempt to make up for the slow start.
