YHC is in the middle of training for the Ragnar Appalachian Black Loop currently, which means lots of running. This presented a unique opportunity to mix up the usual 22nd Q (in case yall still hadn’t noticed the trend of what YHC does when Qing on the 22nd). In thinking about a plan, YHC wanted to go somewhere rarely, if not ever, traveled. And it went a little something like:

 

Warmorama

  • SSH x 22 IC
  • Mosey to the light at West Forsyth

The Thang

  • 22s
    • 2 Ranger Merkins
    • Run to the end of the top parking lot
    • 20 Burpees
    • Run to the beginning of the top parking lot
    • Repeato, changning reps by +/- 2
    • End with 20 Ranger Merkins, 2 Burpees
  • Mosey behind the school
  • 22 (-1) Bearpees Lines
    •  Bear Crawl across marching band parking lines
    • At every line, do a burpee.
    • Repeato x 20
    • Plus 1 extra burpee to get us to 22.

Mobile Mary

  • Mosey 1/2 mile to start, pausing for Maryalong the way
  • 22 American Hammers
  • 22 LBCs
  • 22 Freddy Mercs
  • 22 Low Dolly
  • 22 Low Flutter

Fin!

CoT

  • YHC took us out giving thanks

NMM

  • Tclaps to the double downers! 4 Murphers, and 2 Runners.
  • Total mileage right around 2.6 miles.
  • Totals reps: 132 burpees, 110 merkins, 110 abs
  • The humidity was turned way up this morning, every PAX was soaked by workout’s end.
  • Just about every PAX did not have fun while doing the 22s.
  • The short warm-o-rama in lieu of a half mile warmup run was NOT appreciated by the PAX.
  • The nut punch of the 22 bearpee crawl was definitely a crowd pleasure. The satellite image looked like 22 lines, 5 yards apart; but it was only 21. Naturally, we added a bonus to get us the full 22!
  • YHC tried to get motivational through all of the complaints, something akin to “You all keep complaining about why you do you have to do this, when instead you should be thinking about how lucky you are to be able to do it!”
  • Rubber Ducky has been taking this to heart after his wreck especially!
  • Bootlegger got after it big time this week. Great to see him sticking with F3 after his first post a few weeks ago!
  • Zava was also back for the second time! He bonded with Ziffle over their “Z” names!
  • Ziffle is back to moseying some, being smart with his post-surgery recovery.
  • Dr Toot led the PAX, and that was after a Murph!
  • Crash was also out there crushing it, in close second behind Dr. Toot!
  • Adobe’s hair looked amazing and didn’t budge an inch through all of the sweat!
  • Subfloor tried really hard to get an Omaha out of YHC, but could not. So he appreciated the music and put in a great effort!
  • Cruiser appreciated the burpees and used them as Spartan training for his Beast in November.
  • Great running with Bullwinkle for 0600 EC, he too is getting in Spartan shape for a Beast in November!

Thanks for joining YHC, it was a great start to the weekend! Stay tuned this coming Saturday for a Subfloor Q!
