The Thang:

Mosey to the upper soccer field.  Money Hose graciously leads the PAX in a round of side straddle hops while YHC places cones at 25 yard intervals on a 100+ yard soccer pitch.  PAX descend to the frozen ground and soak in the wintry gloom.  6 rounds, 6 exercises, 6 repetitions at each cone.  PAX plank until each member finishes the round, then return to the icy tundra and wait for the next exercise to be called:

  • Burpees
  • ‘Mericans
  • Squats
  • LBCs
  • Diamond ‘Mericans
  • Jump Lunges

Mosey past Money Hose’s House of Cats and down Hamburger Hill to the lower field.  Money Hose graciously leads the PAX in another round of side straddle hops while YHC places cones at 25 yard intervals on a different 100+ yard soccer pitch.  PAX descend to the frozen ground and soak in the gloom.  6 rounds, 6 exercises, 6 repetitions at each cone. PAX plank until each member finishes the round, then return to the icy tundra and wait for the next exercise to be called:

  • Burpees
  • Flutter Kicks
  • Carolina Dry Docks
  • Russian Hammers
  • Wide Grip ‘Mericans
  • Ski Abs

Fin.

Moleskin:

  • Great work by the PAX today.  No downtime, and everyone pushed hard.
  • Despite my best attempts at provocation, @DreddCNC refused to engage in a Twitter war.  In his honor, this workout was conducted with basically no cadence counting and zero mumblechatter.
  • It’s safe to say we hit at least 3 puppets today.  Early reporting suggests a 2 puppet offering at Urban Jungle.
  • If you have not already done so, please RSVP to the Christmas Party.  Chong Li plans to take your food and your wife’s glass of wine away on the spot if you fail to comply with this request.  #awkward
  • This time of year is difficult for many, we are mindful of the prayers both spoken and unspoken.
