9 PAX, including 4 VRuckers and 4 coupons met at 0615 for EC ruck to Patterson Place. YHC, Bushwood and Riggs decided to show the freshman what they’ve been missing all this time and hit it hard out of the gate double timing up the hill. Slow down to a manageable place and head out towards Patterson Place, only to be spot 2x by Floyd who couldn’t figure out how to wear is ruck. penalty little man jumping jacks were in order. Approach Kroger parking lot immediately split into groups of 2 for 10 pull ups each, continue onward, alternating coupons among the PAX and regular/double time. Head back past Kroger, knock out 10 more pull ups apiece and head for home. Bushwood proceeds to punish the PAX with 90 merkins over the last 0.5 mi
Finally, the workout …
7:02a and we’re off. Couple PAX trickle in during warm-up, as has become customarty at TBL. Coco takes first 30 min, Te’o to deliver on the second 30. Warm-up wasn’t memorable with exception of 20 burpees to make sure PAX were awake. PAX then line up on sideline, partner up and proceed to complete 2 rounds of partner carries + 10 burpees. Head over to hill for bear crawl (1/2) and traveling burpees (1/2) to the top of the hill. Plank and wait for all PAX to finish. Head down other side of hill for standard wind sprints.
Te’o takes over on downs and heads to front of school for 3 sets of dips (15) and EKG merkins (10). Mosey down to track for 150M of walking lunge, little man jumping jacks, walking lunge squat tuck jumps. Jog back up hill to basketball court for first half of merkin pyramid. Jog back over to base of big hill for partner carries and wheel barrows to get both men to the top. Jog back to field for final exercise – the Usain Ruck. 4 rucks, 4 lines of PAX. Put ruck on and sprint to end of field while PAX alternate exercises between merkins, flutters, dry docks, hello dollies, etc. Final race of the day was Riggs vs. Te’o vs. Floyd for bragging rights. Floyd cheated as Riggs beat out Te’o by a nose. Let the record proudly show that YHC was thoroughly smoked by the end of the workout and could barely form sentences — character building!
