Gnarley Goat at The Yank 12.18.21

Talked one of our brothers from the North to come down and across the river to Q at The Yank.  Gnarley Goat has been around a while and was open to the idea right away when we discussed open dates.  The weather was the weather for this time of year.  Cool, wet, chance of rain leading up to and through the day 80%.  Did we get wet?  Not really unless you were counting sweat.

Warm up at the flag by Nutria our Bunker Q.

SSH and Moroccan Night Clubs and that was all I remember before we split and went our different directions.  Nutria, Doodles and Voodoo headed to the shelter on top of the hill.  The rest of us headed up main street to look for fire hydrants.  Gnarley Goat retired a few years ago from Charlotte Fire so he had us catching fire hydrants.  We ran hydrant to hydrant up main street stopping at each one to knock out the called exercise.  There were merkins, LBCs, squats, monkey humpers, step ups and more as we made our way up to the popcorn factory and back to the park.

Now for the fun part, Heaven to Hell.  GG had us start at the playground with one pull up followed by a run across the tracks to Twisted Sugar for some deep stretching.  There was more groaning and chatter at the stretching than at the pullup bars. Back to the playground for five rounds increasing your pull ups by one each time.

Next round toes to bar replaced the pull up.  This one was new to some of us and a challenge for most.  Except for the back flip Gator pulled off during his dismount.  Kids…

With five minutes on the clock we hit the hill for a quick triple nickel before making our way back to The Fighting Yank to meet the Bunker men.

Great group of guys came out.  The stretching was a great addition to the workout.  It was nice to have a Q join us from another region to mix it up a bit.

Enjoy your day!
