Date: 5/24/2021

PAX: Spamalot, Bo Peep, Green Acres, Drip, Burns, Huckleberry, Michael Bolton, Palin, Turnover, Lace, Wobegon, Greenspan

YHC returned to The Iron Throne after a several-month absence.  Good to be back, although the pax who joined me may think otherwise.

Warmarama:

SSHs, Long, extended Cherry Pies, Abe Vigodas, Whirlies, Dive Bombers, Quad Stretch, Let’s Go

The Thang:

Pax moseyed down to field where they found cones at the following points:  10 yards, 25 yards, 50 yards, 75 yards, 100 yards.  Commence, Red Barchetta.  Pax would be given mode of transport + exercise.  Complete the number of reps of the yard marker.

• Run to 100-yard marker; SSHs x 100; run backwards back to start
• Carioca to 75-yard marker; Flight Attendants x 75; carioca opposite direction back to start
• Bear crawl to 50-yard marker; Squats x 50; crawl bear back to start
• Power skip to 25-yard marker; Burpees x 25; reverse(?) power skip back to start
• Broad jump to 10-yard marker; WMDs x 10; broad jump back to start

We then moseyed up to the playground for some pull-ups.  Complete the prescribed number of pull-ups; for any number short of the target, complete that number of dips.  Rounds were 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10.

We then played on the playground equipment for a moment, did some more merkins and squats, and finished off our playground time with burpees.

With time short, we moseyed home for burpees x 5 + Cobra Crunches AMRAP.

Time.

Announcements:

• The Blackbeard Challenge is Memorial Day morning. Bring a ruck or weighted vest as desired.  Join Spam at Jamison Park!
• State of the Pax is June 5^th, also at Jamison Park. Doughnuts, coffee, beer.
• The Shmed is the last weekend of August. Following the completion of The Shmed, Shmedfest returns!

COT:

• YHC took us out.

NMM:

• As expected, the amount of MC from this group was immense.
• Steer clear of medical advice from Palin. Lace is better suited to diagnose your injuries.  Also steer clear of letting Palin pace a group run.
• Shocker of the morning was Drip’s hair looked a bit disheveled. YHC even got him to complain about excessive pull-ups.
• Just kidding; in reality, neither of those things happened.
• Spamalot likes extended Cherry Pies. Sorry about missing core principle #3 five or six times.  I’ll do better.
• Green Acres was disappointed we didn’t do hand-walking Balls to the Wall.
• Huck ghosted YHC on an EC run EH. The way he dominated the workout proved that he had plenty in the tank for the run.
• Wobegon, Burns, and Turnover were quietly getting it done.
• Michael Bolton has accelerated. Dude was getting after it and encouraging others.
• Great to meet Bo Peep, in town from F3 Cherokee (north of Atlanta). Look for him at either Red Line or Flat Line on Tuesday.
