Fifteen of Short Pump’s finest hit the Gridiron this Saturday for a Snake Q. It started with a mosey to the covered championship pickleball court and we circled up for some warmups. Did some SSH, Copperhead Squats, DQs, Ukranian Soliders, Dead Man Hang, Cherrypickers, LBCs, Flutters, APDs, HRM, Burpees and Merkins. Not necessariliy in that order.
15 meant perfect triple check numbers so thats what we did next. Partner ran around the parking lot or other courts picking up trash or doing one burpee (if no trash is found) while the other two did WW2 or Jump Squats. Some guy ran by and said he was from the “Princeton Chapter” and kept running. Whatevs.
After the 3X check was over, I decided we were warmed up enough for some 11s: started with 10 dips at a local bench and then 1 burpee (groans). And we were off. That was fun.
Time to leave the protection of the roof and so we moseyed to the track. Did a little hill work: bernie up and mosey back and then a couple rounds of bear crawl up and mosey back. Slow mosey across the field and to the next small hill down to the soccer field. Did some Die Hard practice and went up and down that small hill ten times.
Continued towards the school and the runners circled up for 5 burpees and then we all gathered at the benches for 20 dips and 20 bench kicks (or as many as it took to get Code Red Moon to find a place to do a few).
We finally got to the front of the school for a final triple check of the loop and some combination of balls to wall toe taps and Australians with a lot of modifications to milkers and wall sits.
We then moseyed back to the parking lot and circled up for some squats, SSH, getting all our feet and hands confused and then burpees.
Welcome to Messi from PA (where he has met State Farm). Also welcome to Offshore and EF Hutton who were looking for some variety and planning on Dogpile for Monday’s convergence. I kept us out of the mud but not out of the rain. Pax complained less than normal. Enjoy the rainy holiday weekend as see you Monday.
