DORA and prizes!

QIC: Huckleberry

Date: 8/30/21

PAX: Hardin, Schneider, 60 minutes, Juul (transplant from charlotte), DQ, Workbench, Drip, Sour Mash

9 pax gathered at 525 on a humid Monday ready for VI.  3 pax wore headlamps and reflective vests…..not the common attire for a bootcamp.  when probed, 60, Hardin, and Schneider announced they would be running and not participating in the bootcamp.  Workbench properly stated that running was for 5-530 and that the bootcamp was from 530-615.  Nice effort, but the 3 pax strode off into the darkness and left 5 pax for warm o rama.

SSH x 15, Abe V x 8, Michael Phelps x 10,…….and in walks Sour Mash.  literally walking.  DQ made a statement that most pax who are late come running in to catch up.  Sour did not change his pace or acknowledge this statement.  IW x 10, Toy Soldier x 10.

Mosey to the new Ortho Carolina and partner up for DORA:

exercises –

10 burpees

20 merkins

30 bonnie blairs

40 WWIIs

50 bent over fly

the run was around the parking lot islands.

seems simple enough……but there was a twist.  once you complete the list as a team, plank for the 6.  the team that completed the exercises first earned a PRIZE!  each member got a brick!  now start round 2.  same prize.  and repeat for 5 rounds.

once everyone had at least one brick, we flipped the cardboard over for the 2nd event –

21-15-9-9-15-21

21 deadlifts, 21 lateral raises – 15 deadlifts, 15 lateral raises – 9…………

mosey back to start for MARY – low flutter, freddy merk, Hucks 3 merkins.  TIME.

prayers – DQ cousin who lost his wife this week.  those battling addiction and mental illness.

Announcements – Schmedfest August 2022.  convergence for Labor day.

YHC took us out.

DQ and workbench put in a 2 mile EC run – where workbench stepped in a hole and rolled his ankle – but he completed the workout without a complaint.

Sour was concerned about the bricks and wanted to carry them back – self proclaimed pack mule.

It was nice to meet Juul – who may return to the winston area pending a job offer.

DQ said the workout was terrible – thank you.

Drip quietly went about killing it this morning – somehow he and Sour conveniently finished in second place every time and avoided a brick till the very end.  interesting………

half the group did not understand the 21-15-9-915-21 portion of the workout – Drip informed us that 50% of people do not listen to directions……we nailed that stat today.

it was humid and everyone pushed.  great HIMs out there!
