Iron Pax at Tequila

One great thing about IPC workouts is they are defined and really limit what a Q needs to do during a workout. In this case it was more about getting things set up before the workout. Our issue here is that we were using a 1/5 mile track, not a 1/4. Which caused us to have to figure out the run portions of the event the day before. So Bubba Sparxx and i hit the AO Thursday afternoon and worked it out. Which was most def worth the time. Went like this:

Everybody that showed decided to roll with the IPC workout. I had a lite version but we were all in. Had a timer at midfield that was on a pedestal  so it could be heard and seen. Marked off some points on the track to correspond to the run distances translated to the 1/5 mile track (a real pain). So off we went as follows:

50 Kraken Burpees – every 2 minutes run across the field and continue the reps. Finis, run

400 yards/meters

50  Lunge, lunge squat burpees- same 2 minute protocol as above.

800 run. 2-1/2 laps on our track.

50 Bonnie Blairs – same 2 minute protocol as above

1200 yd run. (YHC ran 4 full laps which is slightly more than needed. Better to go over than be under.)

Grab a pledge.

NMM:

Everybody hung pretty well! Tough crowd for sure. Not surprised. Dirt, Virus and YHC led the over the hill gang. Sparxx led the younger guys.  Everyone got done inside the 45 minute window. YHC recorded a time @ 41 minutes. It was an ideal fall morning to do this on which probably contributed to the success of the entire pax this morning. One aggravation was the grass has not been cut lately which the wet made it a little more of an uncomfortable event. Does anyone know why elementary schools in Gaston County have 1/5 mile tracks? That soul searing question needs answering! Why not a regulation quarter mile? Things I drink about. This one has me hitting the bottle aggressively!

Great morning, great work by all.
