13 at Midoriyama on a beautiful fall day.

In preparation for the Charlotte marathon, YHC decided to bring all the PAX along on a training run.

Warm-o-Rama w/ 10 burpees, 20 SSH, 10 imperial walkers, and 10 GD slow Donny Q’s.

Scenic route mosey to top of gravel trail w/ 5 burpees at every speed bump + various ner, carioca, skipping, etc. Occasionally stopping to SSH for the 6. Once halting at the top of the trail, Pizza Man declares that the trail is “off limits” for very obscure reasons. YHC’s experience with middle school students has made him impervious to such nonesense, so the show carries on.

5 burpees at the top of the trail, 10 merkins every time past the orange cone roughly halfway down the trail, and 10 Bobby Hurley’s at the bottom. X5.

Once all have completed the gentle mosey, it’s time to head back to the shovel flag, this time with a slightly more direct route. Still stopping for 5 burpees at every speed bump (affectionately known by Slaw as humpees).

Once back at the flag, still 5 minutes to spare, plenty of time to take a crack at YHC’s favorite ab routine: the Spartan 300. 50 LBCs, 50 Flutters, 50 American Hammers, 50 Low Dollies, 50 Dying Cockroaches, and 50 WW2 Sit-ups. After some mumblechatter accusing YHC of poor mathematical judgement, the PAX suffered thr…er completed the first 4 exercises, 25 in cadence of each.

Right at 6:15, time to close things out, Edison reminds YHC to bookend with 10 burpees. This brings our total to 50 Bobby Hurley’s, 75 burpees, 100 merkins, 200 abs, and a bunch of SSH, all interspersed over the course of at least 3 miles of moseying with around 300 feet of elevation gain. Strong work put in by all.
