YHC wanted to Q a workout that had plenty of running for the runners of the group, but still challenged those who are not running at the moment.  We started with the pledge and a traditional warm-up, and then we began a four corners workout.  Each corner was an accumulator.  Walkers went clockwise directly to the next corner and did double the exercise listed, runners went outside the ring counter-clockwise (the long way around) to get to the same corner and did the listed count of the exercises.   Four rounds and each round added an exercise.  It actually timed out very well and we all finished about the same time.  It looked like this.

We finished with about 10 minutes to go so we lined up for a PAX called AMRAP followed by a bear crawl in one direction and a crab walk in the other.  Mosey backed to the flag and as YHC was calling time a train was heard in the distance, so we threw in five more burpees to finish strong.

Solid work by all, running or not running!
