Warmup-run and 25 Tyson’s
Head to Lawson. Paw paw to great rd with Bonnie Blair’s and bomb jacks. Up and back 5 times with 8-15 of each exercise depending on where you ended up, what position depending on nothing really. Mental note-F that idea in the future
To ignition hill for a 2er. 5 Burpees and 15 hand release merkins.
Moseyed back and made a critical error grabbing rocks to run with. They were all huuuge. We saw the pax prancing around in their beautiful lighted field and Rain Man had an idea to let them know why Swarm is the premier Friday workout and take them on in a game 7 vs. everyone, however, once we saw Singlet – Justin Nelson throw the frisbee back we scrapped that idea immediately. Muscles are apparently too big.
So we kept the rocks, did 20 of rock merkins, Rock step ups, thrusters and Simba‘s while running around the frisbee geeks. Mission accomplished.
A little derkin/dip cooldown to end it.
Shriver defying age out front with Rain Man and Singlet – Justin Nelson just like they were back in Black Diamond land last week. Bottlecap joined the crew up front. Said he had been missing going to the longer boot camps and he forgot what it was like to work so hard. Wow! ChatterBox needed the miles, think we got in 4.5 so he was pleased.
And Hooch – Bret Turner came up to me afterwards, I’m hesitant to share but…. He said your Q’s remind me of the final verse from that MC Lyte song from 1989 “Cha Cha Cha”. I almost teared up. Anyway, here are the lyrics if you are unfamiliar with that classic tune.
“ time to convert the non-believer
That I am a road runner, leaving you in the dust
I can adjust to the times and at times I might just get quicker
Then the ticker of your pacemaker
More tender than a Roni, but harder than a job breaker
So don’t ever second-guess me
And if you’re wondering, who could the best be
Think a second and recollect the worst whipping you ever had yet
And I’ll bet that I did it
My fingerprints are still on you
How many times I gotta warn you
About my light, it’ll blind your sight
But the Merkins will still guide you through the night”.
