Best Backblast Ever!!! Running right past the rock

Tuesday morning, a beautiful cool day to push the rock. YHC remembers the days when the Monday AO was known as Derecho. It was a running based workout where we did stuff other than just run a certain route. We did creative stuff like sprints, hill work and fartleks (actually we never did fartleks but we could’ve). Mayor and Top Hat gave an audible groan when I mentioned what we’d be doing today. Time to have a throwback Tuesday!

Warm Up

Goofballs (of course)

Monkey Humpers

Dying Cockroaches

Mosey from the starting area around the parking lot to the small roundabout.

The Thang

Sprint to the first road hump, do 15 merkins, sprint to the next, 15 more, sprint to the next, 15 more, mosey to the stop sign. Props to the Mayor, he’s a pretty good sprinter.

From the stop sign the PAX nurred up the hill to the artwork. Once there the PAX woudl bearcrawl the circle. A few of the elder PAX decided to take the outside circle for a little extra effort. Nice job showing the young whippersnappers what’s up.

Mosey from there back to the small circle where we started.

For this round of action instead of sprinting we skipped and karaoked from speed hump to speed hump. At each hump the PAX did 10 burpees.

Get to the stop sign then nur up to the top.

We were going to bearcrawl around the artwork but Mayor had a great idea to do it backward. Anchorman said we should take that up a notch and not only go in the opposite direction but switch to crab walks. Once again the elder rockpushers took the long route around.

Mosey back for one more round. Sprint to each road hump and then do 25 LBCs. We made it through the 3 roadhumps before it was time to head back.

Once at our original start we had time for a round of Nolan Ryans.

Time!

Prayer requests: Anchorman’s mother in law, others I forgot

Announcements: Mt. Mitchell hike May 5th

Thanks for the opportunity men. It was a pleasure as always.
