Linda and Wendell Gee began the gathering in the covered parking area. I guess they were hoping when Rain Man rolled in that it would give him the idea of starting warm ups under the lights and out of the rain. Not so much . . . 13 PAX – including the 76-year old Mozart rolled out into the rain following YHC.
Headed towards greenway when Favo Bean warned YHC, “it was flooded there on Tuesday.” YHC continued on same path until Wendell Gee then blurted out same words and Favo Bean replied, “Yeah, I told him once.” YHC then decides to turn PAX around to which Favo Bean replies, “Good choice. I already ruined one pair of shoes this week running through flooded greenway!”
Ran back to hill and bear crawl steep part of hill. Lung walk rest of way. Ran into parking lot in open area between the buildings for warm up.
Warm Up
- SSH X25
- Merkin X20
- Good Mornings X15
- Nipler X20
- Sir Fazio Arm Circles – forward X15
- Plank Jacks X25
- Imperial Walker X25
- Mountain Climbers X25
- Sir Fazio Arm Circles – backward X15
PAX followed YHC back to bottom of hill where you incline to enter covered parking and divide into groups of 3. Person 1 did 10 burpees at bottom of hill, person 2 was stationed at top where it levels off and you would enter into covered parking and does merkins until person 1 relieved, person 2 would then run to top of hill where person 3 was doing low slow squats. Rotated 2X through. However, either YHC poorly explained rotations or PAX had hearing loss in rain – it didn’t exactly look like explained herein.
Rolled over to bottom hill and went through series of sprints to top of hill. Ran to top, 20 sumo squats with jump extension and run back down – plank hold until all done. Sprint to top, 30 WWII sit ups and back down – squat hold until all done. Sprint to top again and 20 peter parkers, run back down and plank until all done.
Run back to upper parking lot area between buildings for two more sprint series with exercise at end of parking lot. The moved to find place along wall for people’s chair, followed by “rocky” balls to wall (lots of grumbling from PAX about having to do balls to wall with hands in gravel), then more people chair and then ended with mountain climber balls to wall (more mumble chatter ensued).
Mozy back to parking area between all the buildings. Crab walk half way through parking lot and reverse bear crawl back down. Gorilla crawl half way and reverse crab back down.
Circle up for 2-minutes of Mary:
- LBC X20
- Reverse LBC X20
- Boat / Canoe – in honor of the steady rain
YHC took PAX out in prayer. Always an honor to lead you boys.
I spent most of my day in amazement of Mozart (age 76 – #doublerespect). What inspiration to be so strong, healthy and active at age 76. I told my wife today I hope I live a life where I that same energy and strength at 76 and still posting . . . in the RAIN!
