AO: Purple Cobra (South Wake)
Workout Date: 07/20/21
I was doubtful for the extra credit run this morning, but the high amount of chatter on Slack piqued my interest. I set my alarm and went to bed somewhere in the “maybe”-“likely” range. Somehow I made it. Everyone else did, too, although we didn’t see Maybelline until the end. 100% EC participation.
Warm Up:
State the mission, check for FNGs (expected FNG is a no-show), and give the disclaimer.
Mosey to the bank for warm ups.
Side Straddle Hop x20 In Cadence (IC)
Good Morning x5 IC
Imperial Walker x20 IC
Sir Fazio Arm Circles REVERSE! x10 IC, forward x10 IC
Monkey Humpers x10 IC
Downward Dog and isolated calf stretches
Main Event
1) A Sevens variation I’ve been calling Stationary Sevens. Perform the entire set of Sevens in the same location with no running. Then run a lap around the bank. We did this three times. Merkins/LBCs, Diamond Merkins/Jump Squats, Wide Grip Merkins/Star Jumps (suggestion from Cupid)
2) Mosey to the path behind the shopping center, then mosey down the path to the Jiffy Lube. Scratch that, we encountered a homeless camp at the end of the path, so we turned around and went back the way we came.
3) Mosey to the near side of the mall for BLIMPS
4) Mosey around the front of the mall to the far end. Ignore the PAX suggestions for Balls to the Wall against the windows to the gym. Mosey to the loading dock and grab a couple of rocks (since they are small). Partner up at the loading dock wall for Partner AMRAP Rock Work/Running. (AMRAP=As Many Reps As Possible) One partner exercises, the other runs out and back. Flapjack. Repeato with a new exercise. There was a little confusion on point B for the running. The first group of PAX decided to loop through the Car Wash, so we followed suit. It turned out to be the world’s smelliest car wash. Distance was good though. Exercises were: Curls, Overhead Press, Triceps Extensions, Bent Over Rows, Bus Drivers, and American Hammers.
5) Return rocks and mosey back to start, about half way through there was some mumble chatter about All You Got, so we switched to a sprint to the end.

It was tough to get up earlier for EC, but I’m glad I did. Always good fellowship on those runs. It was nice chatting with Warbucks, and I got some good AO intel in the process.
I hated to miss coffeeteria, but my kids’ last swim meet is tonight, so I needed to get into work earlier.
This was my seventy-ninth #F3Q21 #2021Challenge Q (eighty-first overall). Next Q is Wednesday (tomorrow) at Gettin’ the Runs in JoCoGa/Garner.
