Planning a workout at an unfamiliar site during the daylight hours is a far cry from executing it in the not-so-daylight gloom. First-time Q at Baileywick Park? Check. Wet & muddy terrain? Sure. A curtain of darkness straight ahead? You betcha. OK guys…FOLLOW ME.
Jog around the parking lot perimeter. YHC glances back to converse with PAX only to stumble over a speed hump attempting a Q tackle. Faceplant narrowly averted. Shaken but undeterred, YHC leads the group into the realm of darkness to find a large open field on the other side.
WARM-UP: SSH x 25 > Imperial Walkers x 25 > Good Mornings x 15 > Mountain Climbers x 25
Visibility now 5 feet max. Jog toward the paved nature trail that disappeared from the day before. Ah yes, there it is. Continue on the path around the park perimeter & hang a left to approach the baseball field.
