Great morning for a workout-the morning after Father’s Day when you are either full, hungover, tired or all 3. Also, apparently clocks stopped working as about 30% of the PAX were late or didn’t show. Not going to names but as we started COP we had to dodge Bulletin, then WILDflower and finally Holy Roller (or was that Dauber??) but I’m not going to call him out. Oh and Hush Puppy, apparently he thought the workout was at 5:30 pm so maybe he will be at North Posh tonight . Those who were on time included Catfish, Jolly Rancher, Backflop, Meter Maid, Viking, Dauber, Jewel and me. I don’t remember what we did for COP but we did 0 SSHs and even less Nuclears.
We then got ready for the Thang. Which was run to Shelbyville Road and back (.4 miles total) and do 5/10/15 of the below exercises doing a different group each time.
Box Jumps/Derkins/V-Ups
Burpees/Squats/Dips
Jump Lunges/Plank Jack Merkins/Incline Merkins
We cycled through this as many times as we could until 6:10. I got through everything twice and to everyone’s surprise Catfish finished the most rounds which was like 37. Dauber and Holy Roller tied or are the same person or just have the same clothes. Except Holy Roller has cooler shorts, not sure what they were but they were better than Daubers. The hill coming into the park is no joke—we ran anywhere from 2.5 miles to 4. Viking also taught Dauber how to tell time or miles or something.
We stopped with 5 minutes left and instead of Mary we went through all of the exercises one last time without the running. We were gassed at the end.
Did countorama, name o rama, announcements and intentions. A lot of them this morning so won’t repeat them all.
I’ll end by saying I usually skip Monday workouts and that was part of the reason I signed up to Q. It’s a great way to start the week and makes you feel less guilty for the weekends indulgences. My cardio needs improvement so that’s why we did what we did today. I arranged it in a way where people like Catfish and Backflop can really push them selves without having to wait for me. It was cool to see them get tired. Catfish told me he was smoked at the end, that must be how a coach feels when MJ tells him good game after he scored 40 or when Snoop says he likes your new album.
Anyways thanks for coming out this morning and getting better.
