Five of Short Pumps finest found the Wellesley Tunnel and the secret tennis courts to do some exercises up and down the “H”. During the search we did some warmups in the lot next to the lake: Ukrainian soldiers, DQ, Helicopters, arm circles, lbc and merkins.
When we got to the courts we started with 5 burpees at the middle of the “H” and then 25 WWII at every end of the “H” (100 total) with another 5 burpees every time you crossed the middle. All OYO. Some crossed the middle every time and did 20 burpees and some did not.
With better instructions we did it again but with a total of 50 merkins and crossing in between every set with 5 burpees. Math was involved to divide 50 merkins by 4.
We went back to the tunnel and did balls to the tunnel wall. The tunnel is round with curved ridged steel walls. We did 5 toe taps in cadence and all got down safely.
We headed back via the lake path and we all got over 3 miles and one extra minute for free.
Go get your 10th anniversary shirt, do the home grown half/10k, the ultimate tournament and/or the pickleball tournament. All in the next month.
And go listen to some Whitesnake!
