In Swedish, “Fartlek” loosely translates to “Speed Play.” And on this hot and humid Friday morning, 20 brave souls gathered to play with their speed, work on their explosive energy, and challenge The Hill and the Satan himself. Unfortunately, not everyone got the memo to break out their running shoes. Nevertheless, each man unlocked his inner Usain Bolt and achieved speeds previously considered unreachable.
Warmup: Mosey up the hill and through the neighborhood. Get loose with Side Straddle Hops, Don Quixotes, and Ukrainian Soldiers.
COP 1: Run to station 1, complete 20 merkins, 20 squats, and 20 LBCs. Sprint to station 2, complete 20 jump squats, 20 mountain climbers, and 20 Alabama Prom Dates (Roll Tide!). Jog down The Hill to station 3, complete 5 burpees and 10 merkins. Reverse course and jog up The Hill to station 2, complete 10 jump squats, 10 mountain climbers, and 10 Alabama Prom Dates. Sprint to Station 1, complete 10 merkins, 10 squats, and 10 LBCs. Run back to start. Repeat.
COP 2: Indigenous Run to bottom of Satan’s Hill.
Cop 3: Ring of Fire-Abs Edition
COT: Numbers, Names, and Announcements: July 4 Convergence at Atlee High School, Homegrown Half in August, SOJ CUSUP in September.
After four months of sweating with you fine gentlemen, it was an honor to lead to this morning. Thank you for that privilege. I look forward to leading more posts and continuing to grow with this Brotherhood.
