They say imitation is the highest form of flattery. YHC copied some of @Gamma and @HoneyDo’s earlier workouts, but learned that flattery only happens when the Q does the workout right! This morning? Not much went according to plan, except that 19 men from Harrisburg showed up for a Ridge beatdown. When YHC arrived at the #Ridge, @Kojak and @ScheduleC were finishing up their #ruck workout and @Bull was out running his usual #Morning10K (or is it more than that?) – #muchrespect to these warriors. Many of PAX came roaring in around 5:29am for the workout #beenTheredoneThat. Here’s how it went:

Mosey around the ridge

Warmup
#Disclaimer
SSH x20
Cotton Picker x20
Imperial Stormtrooper x20
5 Burpees OYO

The Thang

Mosey to the end of parking lot by football field

Form groups of 3. Each member of the group does a certain exercise in the set. P1 starts by running, P2 behind him with Lunges and P3 brings up the rear with Dragon Walks. P1 runs to the other end of the lot and around the island. P1 runs back to catch P3. P1 takes over Dragon Walks, P3 runs to P2 and takes over Lunges and P2 takes off running catches P1 and takes over Dragon Walks, and the cycle continues. The set when teammate doing Dragon Walk reaches the other end of the parking lot. #alotBetterWhenHoneyDoDidItInFebruary
