Hold the Wall at The Iron Throne
QIC: Workbench
Date: 03/14/22
PAX: @Crash @Frostbite @Offsides @Drip @Spamalot @crypto @ziggy stardust @Greenspan @Workbench
Another cold morning with temperatures hovering right below freezing. Also your QIC was feeling unmotivated, coming off a long wedding weekend out of town and losing a hour to the time change, but when I saw my fellow Pax there my attituded changed and I was ready to go.
Warmorama
SSH, Worley w/ Clap, Abe Vigoda, Arm Swirly F & R, Michael Phelps, and Imperial Walkers.
The Thang
Mosey the long around the school to the bus parking lot and lunge walk across the parking lot.
Mosey to the basketball court for the Burpee Suicides. Sprint across court and do 6 burpees, sprint back and do 5, then…4,3,2,1. For a total of 21 Burpees.
(I was only going make the Pax run to half court and back, but I underestimated the men there who overruled me and wanted to cover the whole basketball court.)
Then we headed over to the wall on the big field and partnered up.
Partner 1 – 3 Burpees, 4 Merkins, 5 WWII, 6 Squats
Partner 2 – Hold a Wall Sit until partner 1 finished
After each partner finishes 5 turns doing the exercises both take lap around the big Field.
We hade it through 2.5 rounds before time caught up with us.
We moseyed back to the bus parking lot and lunged walked back across. (The Pax commented that the parking lot felt a lot longer the second time across)
Then we moseyed back around the front of the school and finished with a sprint up the hill to make it back to the launch by 6:15.
COT
Frostbite has VQ at Flatline tomorrow.
Prayers for Ukraine war, people who need help in this cold weather, to be grateful for all that we have/not to sweat the small stuff, and Drips son traveling home.

Congratulations to Crypto for making it to his first 5:30 workout SYITG. We learned most, but not all the Pax where alive when Greenday’s Dookie album came out in 1994, even though some where too young to remember. We learned the secret to Spam’s excellent cardio endurance is breathing lots of radon gas in your home. Sorry that the field was more dirt than grass and your clothes got dirty. We all did great holding up the wall, and I need to go clean the muddy back prints off of it.
