8 PAX posted to Tobacco Road on a chilly, but mostly ice-free morn. In the pre-workout text mumble chatter, Riggs challenged YHC to “do your worst.” YHC did not wish to displease so he presented the PAX with an opportunity to complete “the worst mile ever.”

The Thang: The Worst Mile Ever
(disclosure: the worst mile was so bad, we didn’t get to finish it…I may make it a feat of strength in the future).
Jog to the field. Each lap around the super-sized soccer field is estimated to be 1/4 mile.
Lap 1: 1/4 mile bear crawl. This was about as awful as you could imagine. I did give the option of switching between bear crawl, crawl bear and crab walk. Most guys just did the whole thing forward bear.
Lap 2: Suicide run. Run up the sideline until you either hit a half field line or the corner and come back. Then run to the next line/corner, etc, suicide-style. Stop when you make it all the way around the field. In the end, this turned out to be the equivalent of 6 laps around the field.
Lap 3: Lunge walk the length of the field to the first corner and do a set of Jack Webbs. The original plan was to do Jack Webbs at every corner, but at this point, we ran out of time.
Lap 4: Not completed/attempted. I had envisioned a combination of partner carries, traveling Burpees, Cackalacky choo-choo and Tunnel of Love. In retrospect I may have been a bit ambitious for a 45 minute workout.
Mary:
In honor of the Panther’s 17 wins this season and hopefully one more in the Super Bowl, the reps were done in sets of 18.
