The ominous air hung over Shelley Lake this morning as the PAX of (couple of ducks! where’s my) 22 gathered for a classic Spaghetti western inspired workout in search of “spiritual” gold tucked away in the darkness. The light rain made for a nice ingredient. As we learn with many things in life one man is not enough to get the job done properly sometimes so we threw in a wrinkle with 20 minutes to spare….
The Thang:
The Good
Warm Up: Good Mornings x15, Imperial Walkers x 15, Merkins x20, Mountain Climbers x25

The Bad
Hit the trail at a non-fellowship pace with sharp pain stations…..Stomp x20, Plank Jacks x25, Diamond Merkins x20, Star Jumps x20, & Spiderman Merkins x20. Trail is finished, roughly 2 miles.

The Ugly (Yo-Yo oh ma!):
Run to the bottom of the hill, grab a rock: Curls x30, Military Press x30….run to top of the hill with rock: Goblet squats x30, Alternating Lunges x20. Take the long way back to the bottom: Curls x20, Military Press x20. Back to the top of the hill with rock: Goblet Squats x30. Take the long way back to the bottom. Drop the rocks.
