Finishing Freight

Six brave men showed to know this morning at the DOWNTOWN !

The last Tuesday of January I ended up at Midoriyama for a Freight beat down.

We ran suicide drills  for over 2/3’s of a very large parking lot (every line)  I heard we almost made it but ran out of time – no one wanted to take Freight up on staying for extra credit to complete.

Fast forward  to the following week on a rainy Friday morning to complete.

First the warm up – 10 SSH in cadence and 10 merkins in cadence

Mosey down South St to the parking deck.

LEVEL 1 – suicide drill (every line from  end to end)

10 count and mosey to level 2

LEVEL 2- route 66 merkins

10 count and mosey to level 3

LEVEL 3- repeat suicide drill

10 count and mosey to level 4

LEVEL 4 – repeat route 66 with mtn climbers – brawl crawl between lines

10 count and mosey to level 5

LEVEL 5 – repeat suicide drill

10 count and mosey to level 6

LEVEL 6 – repeat route 66 with squats

Complete but wait we have around 10 mins left

Mosey to the first level and since we have time we ran back up the stairs to the top and ran back down to the bottom again with 6 mins to spare.

With that amount of time we took the long way (main st down to N 321 route) back to the start for about 2 mins of LBC’s in cadence called by Slaw.

Note: We only got in 2.7 miles compared to Freights  3.32

Announcements: P200, Rooster, & Extinction run

Prayer request: Pax on IR and many others

Pledge – Thank you JJ for reminding me.

Enjoyed it this morning and a honor to lead

Warm up: 5 burgees and 10 SSH in Candance

Pledge

Mosey to the Food lion parking lot by way of Riverwood Parkway stopping at Plantation Tr and Gastone’s Hill to plank for the six and complete 10 merkins.  Stopping for a third time at the Dollar General -plank for the six and complete 50 LBCs.

Short mosey to Food lion parking lot for the following suicide drills:

Merkin Suicide drill – start with merkin at first line, sprint to 2nd with merkin and back to the first line with merkin – 4 round to complete the lines across the parking lot.

Burpee Nur Suicide drill – same as above but with burpee and nur instead of sprinting.

Complete 50 more LBC’s

We ran from one corner of the parking lot to the far corner by running or nurring the all of the parking spaces from the building toward Union Rd.  We did stop multiple time for LLB (Lunge lunge Burpee) LBC, flutters, or Michael Phelps but on the last row we did Route 66 with monkey humpers.

Mosey on over to Planet Fitness and ran the parking (from PF to Neal Hawkins) stopping at PF each time for 10 Monkey humpers – GOT SOME STRANGE LOOKS FROM THE PEOPLE COMING IN AND OUT OF PF.

Mosey back toward the start stopping for 15 dips at the wall – but wait we have a few more minutes so we ran around Pelicans and back to the bank to finish with Lunge Lunge Burpee the length of the parking lot.

Mosey back to Pelicans to finish with a minute or so of   flutter kicks lead by Watts up.
