Date: 12/11/21

PAX: Wobegon, Bloodsport (WB), High Cotton, Linus, Undertow, Starfish, Green Acres (WD), D-Day, Pony Express, Bluto, Spamalot

Overcast, grey, foggy, and a slight mist greeted the dedicated Pax this morning at Purgatory.

Linus made his second appearance and was ready to go!

The pre-workout buzz was all about how muddy we would get.  No promises were made.  Green Acres was concerned about his new shirt, and did not want it to get dirty.

7 am arrived, and it was time.

Mission Statement and 5 Core Principles were recited.  Approved by all.

And for good measure, the full, five point legal disclaimer was given.  (insert lawyer jokes here.  and the Pax did).

The THANG

Mosey to rock pile.

Pick out a normal sized rock that you would want to spend a lot of time with, and one large rock.

Circle up.

Grab large rock and head towards the Lido deck.  Stopping after about 100 yards.  Put large rock down.

Mosey back to normal size rock.

Rock slam x 10.  Then throw rock in front of you (BE CAREFUL).  Walk to rock and repeat this pattern until we reach the paved basketball court in front of the tennis courts.  Rock swing for the 6.

When the 6 arrived, walk with rocks onto the tennis courts.

Line up for suicides.  Run to green areas between each of the courts (3 areas).  At the start:

10 squat thrusters with rock

Thus 3 sets of thrusters

Circle up outside of courts.  Leave rocks and rotate two spaces to right.  Grab your new rock.

Stop when you get to backstop.  Circle up, and drop rocks.  Rotate 1 space to right.  Grab your new rock.

Continue to flag pole.

Grab your rock and continue all the way to the Lido deck and down to the hole.

In the hole, perform 5 erkins.  Then take rock up to lido deck for derkins x 10.  Then take rock to other side (where Splash loves to take us) for merkins x 5.

Back to the hole and continue this pattern, increasing reps by 5.

Stop after set of 15 reps.

Walk to slippery hill and continue to we get to our large rocks.  Drop smaller rocks and grab large rock.

Walk back to rock pile, and return large rock.

Mosey back to smaller rocks, grab them, and back to rock pile.  Return rocks.

Mosey to start.  No time for Mary.

TIME!

NMM

First, the objective data:  1.89 miles covered.  838 calories burned.

Great work by everyone this morning.  As I told Linus, the idea for the workout came last night while drinking scotch and watching “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia.”  So if you have any complaints, submit them to Charlie.  Or possibly Frank.

Pony remarked that he could not have imagined that he would be slamming rocks into the ground this morning.  Keeps you on your toes.

Speaking of which, hope Wobegon did not injure himself with the rock.

Happy to report that Greenacre’s shirt remained relatively clean.
