Browsing: 45 Minutes of Mary

Mary Munford Elementary

11 strong rose to the challenge at Mary today. There was much mumble chatter on this topic of the number 11 quickly confirming the theme of the day. These go to 11 (or not). COP – mosey to front of school on Grove. SSHs, deadman’s hang, Don Quixotes, imperial walkers and helicopters to get us started. Mosey to the field and line up for….wait for it….11s! Apparently this 11s is new to the pax so I am happy to introduce a new exercise regimen to them. At each tree (of which there are 11), perform a set of one type…

YHC’s luck with rain seemed to have ended as it had started by the time we arrived at the AO. However it was light and while YHC had devised a plan to keep (mostly) dry, things would need to be modified mid workout. Here’s how it went down… Mosey around the school to the blacktop to warmup with dead man’s hang, Don Quixotes, arm circles, SSHs and Merkins. Mosey to covered pavilion which was unoccupied and the site for all of YHC’s original plan for the day. Partner up with P1 running to corner of Grove and Commonwealth and back,…

Eleven came out Off the AO we traveled Elevens, Lindsays Now for Triple Check Monkey Humpers, Flutter Kicks Finish with ring of fire

The warm up, yeah… well, should planed that a little… Mosey to the church parking lot. Work out based on a deck of cards with burpees, Lt. Dans, WW 2’s, mercan’s and running. It was kind of a mess up but I’m pretty sure we were all breathing heavy, and and I provided plenty of fodder for the peanut gallery! Mosey back for numbers and names. No announcements. In closing, look out for each other, sometimes a few minutes is all it takes and we never know what is happening on another person’s insides. Enjoy!

Eight or nine folks gathered at Mary for a legacy master Q. We ran over to the parking lot for COP then met on the track for something like this: The Thang Run a lap, then 10 merkins Run a lap, then 20 merkins Run a lap, then 30 merkins Run a lap, then 40 merkins Run a lap, then 50 merkins Then back down? The rules were concocted along the way and included: If you pass Q and his mate, you have to stop and do 10 burpees If you pass in the workout zone, no burpee penalty (don’t…

9 Strong were undeterred by the previous nights deluge and assembled at 45MOM to get their heart rate going for the day. It went something like this… Mosey to blacktop for Warmup…Dead Man’s Hang, 10 Helicopters, 13 Don Quixotes, 10 Arm Circles (Forward/backward), 15 Imperial Walkers, 20 SSH Slightly longer mosey over to Reveille Church Pavilion. Pair up in Pavilion and do 5 rounds of one partner doing 10 Abyss Merkins while the other partner did SSH. With the heart rate up, we then did a Triple Check with one man doing dips, one doing LBCs, and the pacer running…

A total of 46 guys, including an FNG (big respect) showed up today for the first RVA CSAUP event in quite a while. An eager 45 (including 3 ruckers) gathered before 0600 in the dark gloom of Dogpile ready to roll. The temperature lived up the CSAUP name, it was chilly, but the adrenaline was flowing. 0600 on YHC’s watch, so the ruckers hit the road and the rest of us grabbed the shovel flags and moseyed to the COP circle for disclaimer (you v you and pay attention to your body) and COP, including: SSHs DQs Helicopters Deadman Hangs…

5 intrepid HIMs overcame the irrepressible pull of a slothful existence and gathered for 45 minutes of Mary. According to the elderly gentleman pacing the track and talking loudly to a friend at 5:30 in the morning, this is what happened… COP: Short mosey to the blacktop, quick stretch with deadman hang, Helicopters, DQs, Imperial Walkers, SSHs. OLD 100. Perform a set of excercises, run the track, wait for the six Round 1: 100 Squats. Round 2: 90 2x Mountain Climbers. Round 3: 80 2x Flutter Kicks. Round 4: 70 LBCs.

A naughty 9 descended upon Mary to experience a tale of two Geriatric Q’s. This is what transpired – more or less… Q1: Donkey Kicks, bear crawl, run out and bernie sanders back (3 rounds) Suicides on the Courts: Mountain Climbers and Merkins intertwined Q2: Four corners: Burpees, Merkins, WWIIs, SSHops. Variety of running, lunging, and Karaokes mixed in. Ascending, then Descending. NMS: Good to have TYA healthy and back in the gloom. His excitement was reflected in his persistent pursuit of more Burpees. Hitchhiker will be skiing for the first time today…YHC will be hoping it ends well and…
