The Thang:
Mosey to get a block.
The idea was to travel up I5 along the West Coast starting from the border in Tijuana and going all the way to Seattle. There are 6 different Interstate freeways that intersect I5. So cones were set up at different distances in the parking lot at each intersection with increasing amount of exercises.
PAX get in a line at start of parking lot where first cone is.
- 5 burpees at the start
Rifle carry block to first cone, one parking space, which is at San Diego I8.
- 5 burpees, 8 curls
Leave block, crawl bear back to start, bear crawl to block, rifle carry block to next cone, 2 parking spaces from start, which is at LA I10.
- 5 burpees, 8 curls, 10 Overhead Press
Leave block, crawl bear back to start, bear crawl to block, rifle carry block to next cone, 3 parking spaces from start, which is at LA I210.
- 5 burpees, 8 curls, 10 Overhead Press, 21 Plank Jacks (I’m not a monster)
Leave block, crawl bear back to start, bear crawl to block, rifle carry block to next cone, 9 parking spaces from start, which is at Sacramento I80.
- 5 burpees, 8 curls, 10 Overhead Press, 21 Plank Jacks, 80 Squats
Leave block, crawl bear back to start, bear crawl to block, rifle carry block to next cone, 19 parking spaces from start, which is at Portland I84.
- 5 burpees, 8 curls, 10 Overhead Press, 21 Plank Jacks, 80 Squats, 84 LBCs
Leave block, crawl bear back to start, bear crawl to block, rifle carry block to next cone, 22 parking spaces from start, which is at Seattle I90.
- 5 burpees, 8 curls, 10 Overhead Press, 21 Plank Jacks, 80 Squats, 84 LBCs, 90 Jack Reachers
Since we still had time, we walked back to middle of parking lot and did 100 rep challenge. First was Imperial Walkers and whoever finished first, everyone else was done. Boomerang was first. Then we did Box Cutters, buy YHC decided that if we all did 25 we were done.
Return blocks.
Most may have modified and not done most or all of the bear crawl/crawl bear.

Apparently Sourmash’s doctor thinks he doesn’t look like a 45 year old. Must be his soft skin.
Boomerang pointed out to YHC that it would be quicker to fly then take the entire I5 to get to Seattle.
Adobe was stumped a few times with the song selections.
