A pair of able-bodied men sprang from their fartsacks and eagerly made their way to Atlee, where they greeted each other with no real plans of what they’d be doing that morning. We took turns leading activities, which YHC will do his level best to recall after nearly two weeks of procrastination:
Helix got us started with the COP doing…things. I’m sure it included good stretching and at least one exercise we don’t normally do. After a solid warmup, Helix passed the Q and Holland took over.
Mosey to the track, where we did a series of laps, stopping at each of the five sets of bleachers for a set of exercises:
Lap 1 – dips x 10 each
Lap 2 – reverse crunches x 10 each
Lap 3 – incline merkins x 10 each
Lap 4 – burpees x 5 each
From here it was over to Helix and over to the Cool Spring playground for a lazy Dora: 100 of that thing where your feet are in a swing that is kind of like a crunch, 200 squats, 300 SSH. Timer did leg lifts while hanging from the pullup bar until they didn’t feel like it anymore.
Back to Holland and back to the pavement. Run behind the schools, and stop at each speed bump for a new exercise. Highlights included WWIIs, Carolina drydocks, and YHC’s least favorite, sprinting to the next speed bump.
All in all a successful outing, and an enjoyable well-earned coffee was the ideal ending.
